Here it is: Walk Free's Global Slavery Index

What is modern slavery?

Modern slavery takes many forms and is known by many names. Essentially, it refers to situations of exploitation that a person cannot refuse or leave because of threats, violence, coercion, or deception.

Modern slavery includes forced labour, forced or servile marriage, debt bondage, forced commercial sexual exploitation, human trafficking, slavery-like practices, and the sale and exploitation of children. In all its forms, it is the removal of a person’s freedom — their freedom to accept or refuse a job, their freedom to leave one employer for another, or their freedom to decide if, when, and whom to marry — in order to exploit them for personal or financial gain.

So, slavery includes being coerced into a job in which you are exploited for financial gain....?

So where did their data come from?

I spent an hour studying their methodology in hopes of finding the raw data for the DPRK, but I couldn't glean much except that it was not among the surveyed countries.

I emailed [email protected] asking about an hour ago and got the automated reply quoted below. I'll see if anyone gets back to me.

Thank you for your enquiry. Please be advised that your correspondence has been received and will be distributed to a Walk Free representative for follow up where required.

To their credit, they did remove several instances of North Korea from the Department of Labor's "list of products at risk of modern slavery by source country" because they "could not find recent evidence to verify the occurrence of forced labour".

However, they added to the list solar panels from China, because of the "well-known" exploitation occurring there. It then cites an article on the Uyghurs. lol

I just went to enable them only to realize they've been enabled this whole time. I only recently got email working on my website after six months of troubleshooting, so I know the struggle. Do they work on lemmy-ui?

"Oh, most definitely!"

Your answer could potentially help me un-fuck my website!

Details here.

Edit: The total capacity is currently 160 GB, so no amount of pruning will free up 1 TB. I need to mount an external share or something.

Edit2: I'm trying this but the command isn't working despite zero exit status.

Maybe one of you hogs knows what's up.

I got a new IP address for my VPS and updated the DNS A record accordingly. That was two days ago and I still get an "unable to connect" error when trying to access TankieTube through protonVPN.

However, if I drop the VPN everything works. This is the case with both Firefox and Chrome.

Does this have to do with DNS propagation?
