Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Yet again, Big Tech's demands have been placed atop the pecking order, drowning out the voices of the local communities that this government pretends to serve. This is not democracy, and this is not true representation. 031

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Are Big Tech (and our pathetically obedient government) intent on ruining anything infused with fun and joy? Privacy is becoming a luxury that we aren't privileged to. Waiting for the "virtual festival" experience costing £3,000 any day now. 021

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Claude, ChatGBT and Grok all going down last night sets a worrying precedent for humanity if we continue to rely more and more on AI infrastructure. If AI ends up in our hospitals or police stations (a mortifying thought in and of itself) and a similar AI power outage occurred, what happens then? 100

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 02/09/2026A FOI (freedom of information) submitted by Global Action Plan has found that the UK government doesn't even know what all these data centres will be used for. Whilst 3/4 of the UK exists in drought, and we have over 500 operating data centres, there is simply no justification for this. 010

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Zack Polanski, leader of The Green Party has called for a moratorium on data centres, urging that "we need to slam the brakes" as 3/4 of the UK find themselves in severe drought.

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 28/08/2026In a surveillance state, privacy is a privilege that one must earn through wealth, power and elitism. It is no longer a guarantee, but a luxury. That should terrify you. 021
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 28/08/2026This genuinely put a smile on my face. Academic spaces aren't just about taking in information, they are about growing as a person - learning to educate each other, understand one another, communicate in ways that resonate. So much learning can be found in basic human connections. 000
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Meta being fined $17 billion ... now this ... am I dreaming or are we finally holding Big Tech accountable? 010
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 24/08/2026The fact that a judge deemed it fair use, because destruction of the original copies meant replacement with a digital one, is so alarming. Why? Because Big Tech profits are now protected more than the literature that has acted as the foundation our culture for generations. Let that sink in. 020

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 19/08/2026A single Sainsbury's branch has halted facial recognition technology after a man was falsely identified as a shoplifter. This will be the first of many corporations desperately swerving to avoid lawsuits. We can not be collateral damage in the name of progressive technology. 021
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 17/08/2026 In the UK alone, data centres will emit up to 123m tonnes of CO2 over the next ten years, the same emissions generated by nearly three million Brits.

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Technology made by and for the powerful elite will never be designed with minority interests in mind. We deserve tech that works for us, not against us. Big Tech does not serve us anymore, did it ever? 020
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 13/08/2026We are trapped in a heat-packed dome of data centres. We need a moratorium - not tomorrow, not in a week, but now. 000

Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Meta v DuckDuckGo is a battle of the ages and I am so grateful to be here to see it ☺️ 020
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 11/08/2026The idea that Big Tech are working to create technology that is convenient for everyone is a complete and utter lie, and this is solid proof. Big Tech don't care about your convenience, they care about your profit. They will restrict your autonomy until they have squeezed every penny out. 020
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 07/08/2026KEEP UP THIS PRESSURE!! Big Tech must be directly held accountable for the severe dangers they have enabled on their own platforms - not the parents, not the schools, not the kids. They are partly responsible for the rapidly declining mental health of an entire generation, and that is abhorrent. 000
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 06/08/2026This country has made its opinions on data centres loud and clear - we don't want them. Not in our local communities, not in our national landscapes. The government making them critical national infrastructure allows them to sidestep any kind of accountability to the communities they claim to serve. 053
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 06/08/2026At times when Big Tech's control can feel crippling, it is crucial to remember that we have power to stunt the progress and development of these tech giants. Our voices matter, and we deserve proper consultation. 022
Pull The Plug @pulltheplug-ai.bsky.social · 05/08/2026It's about immigration! It's about child safety! It's about login convenience! A Digital ID was never about any of those things, it was always state wide surveillance rolled out under the guise of public protection. Democracy cannot exist under a lack of transparency. 020
