    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

I don't see how he imagines this has any preventive value though. It's not like averting someone's ideation course improves their life in any material way.

The hypocrisy of course is that Google would never allow Sanctioned Suicide to run ads for lonely searchers.
