#paywallexception — Public Fediverse posts

I periodically fuss about paywalls on various things, but especially climate. I advocate for what I tentatively call a "paywall exception". I finally wrote a short blog essay explaining what this is about.

LA Times reports life threatening storms coming to southern California ... just in case anyone wants to pony up money to know about the threat. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-02-03/life-threatening-storm-sets-sights-on-southern-california

There must be no secret existential threats to humanity.

There must be no secret impending disasters.

There must be no secret pandemics.

It should be a serious crime to predatorily charge money to find out about imminent threat to human life or civilization. Make your capitalist money on other stories that are more optional.
