Have we been hacked? Does anyone know what is going on?

Don't take this as gospel, but it doesn't seem to be a hack. I had one and it seems to come from a compliance review of old blog posts. I'm not sure exactly what triggers the actions they take though.

Doonhamer said...

Warning.
This post may contain nuts.
There, sorted.
As for the other one, that item is commonly referred to as M. Harperson.
Missgendering is a serious offence.

Blogger.com is a participant of the Globalist/Communist coup against America. Therefore; your post has been censored; as it is in opposition to their narrative. Blogger.com has been tagged for destruction in the upcoming purge of criminal online organizations.Please plan accordingly; by researching alternative platforms; by which you may post on without interference.

What did you post? Can you copy and paste it in these comments?

Rich Tee said...

This has been going on on YouTube for ages. They are both owned by Google. The popularity of YouTube with children is probably the main driver behind YouTube censorship, rather than any global conspiracy. It looks like they may be harmonising their policies across all their platforms.

"What did you post? Can you copy and paste it in these comments?"

I didn't post anything. I've just had another email about another post. On further examination, it looks like they are old posts of Mark's, so this is retrospective censorship.

Lola said...

Bayard. Ah. I bet it's his stuff on the CO2 nonsense. They definitely won't like those.

Bayard said...

"As for the other one, that item is commonly referred to as M. Harperson."

No, that is no good. "Harperson" could be construed as referring to the son of a harper. I suggest "Harbeing". That is neither sexist, racist nor speciesist.

Lola said...

B

Or, 'Dear M Har**** (please complete the blanks as your gender preference)'.

Bayard said...

How do you pronounce "M", "mmm"?

Lola said...

B
Typo. Ms.

Bayard said...

L, there I was, thinking you were being woke and non-gender-specific, like M. Doonhamer above. Mind you, I always pronounce "M" as "M'sieur".

Lola said...

Woke? Moi? Quelle horreur mon petty shoe

Bane of our life, yes.

I had several of these, and requested a review. They sorted it out.
