They're already being accused of being transphobic, even though BBC's research and development has nothing to do with any of that stuff.

"social.bbc" wow, I bet absolutely nobody on the internet will view this url and think the site is designed for NSFW activities

What does this mean?

You can't fault the British Broadcasting Corporation for making a poor acronym choice back in 1922. Just look at Ayds, the weight reducing diet supplement.

But I can absolutely fault them for picking a domain name in 2023 that uses that same acronym

Are you suggesting the BBC should get a new name?

[-] MomoTimeToDie@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 year ago

I'm suggesting that "social.bbc" looks like a website for hookups

[-] starlinguk@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

What? If you see that and don't think of the British broadcasting corporation then I'd say that's a you problem.
