Train Wi-Fi denies access to ‘hateful’ gender-critical site
Anyone who's ever done anything with content filters knows that sites sometimes get categorised wrongly.
Somehow they've turned a total and utter non event into an article making it sound as if a train company is deliberately blocking their customers from accessing a "gender-critical" website.
I assume their readership have got dafter and more scared than the Mail and Express and that's saying something.

Guilty as charged on that one 
There are ways to read for free but I believe it's against the site rules to post links that way.
They're a little like the Guardian in that they do some good journalism but then you get complete and utter rubbish like that.
I always had the impression it was a "serious" newspaper but every time I go there these days it seems to be "woke" this and "cancel" that splattered everywhere.

Website get mis-categorised by AI , the usual suspect create a fuss. Train company simply says it was mis-categorisied and we've told the company to recategorise that website.
Situation back to normal. I'm sure it could have been sorted with a few emails instead of bleating to the press.
If you don't automatically let them take your subscription payment they email you and email you . They then lower the price with different offers. Eventually i paid £29 for a year subscription ( it was something over £150 to start with ) . I thought for &29 for a year i would pay but christ its just so full of misleading articles and hate .
The really annoying bit is they emailed after i paid £29 and offered it for £19 . £19 too much imo!

The comment articles are dreadful: it's as if the country is on its knees & armeggedon in one form or another is just around the corner. The negativity of it all could really get depressing.

As an aside, I was looking at The Mail the other day at my mum's and it had 4 different stories with the word "Woke" in the title.
