      Last time the names of “Civilian” killed were released and online people started looking them up and seeing if they were part of Hamas. It started becoming a problem because they’d say things like, “Strike X killed 8 innocent civilians” and then a few weeks later they’d get asked why they categorized such and such as a civilian because he was a mber of Quassam etc… So they stopped releasing names.

          Unfortunately I don’t have the source for that easily reachable. It used to be a Google search away but all the keywords have been clogged by the most recent conflict.

          I’ll have to do some more digging to see if I can find it.

          Does lemmy have a remind me bot?

            No idea but to be honest a remind me bot would be really great as a feature. I just might make one if there isn’t one already.
