Map of visitors during the past 20 minutes.
They start to all look almost the same after a while.
Once again by the time we're getting the most from Australia I'm either sleeping or busy doing other stuff, so don't get an image of it. Also reliable broadband that doesn't block Betty's there is concentrated in the large cities. So when we're getting the most from there, we can be getting 1/2 dozen or from the same city. So on the map, visually, it appears as only 1 dot/visitor per city, unless it's zoomed in real close.
We get the same thing with visitors from big cities like London, NYC, & Toronto. Visitors appear as 1 dot when it can be many.
Although visitors from the UK have increased & are steady, we seem to be getting less from the rest of Europe compared to a year ago. Of course we could expect less from non-english speaking countries, but they used to be around a lot before. There are a lot of proxies/VPNs around the world & Europe that are heavily used by spammers & hackers, so get blocked by Betty's, but that can't account for all the loses in Europe.
Could some countries, or their ISPs be blocking Betty's again, or blocking searches to us or our topics? I have read some ISPs in Australia also block Betty's or searches for our topics. Many public Wifi connections, universities, schools, & libraries in the UK block Stories & all searches for them. It's like we don't even exist through those connections.
I've noticed vast areas of the USA & Canada where we get very few visitors. I don't think it's a conincidence that these are the exact same areas where most of the population or local government is extremely conservative. Could their local connections & communities be actively be blocking Betty's or blocking searches for places like us & or topics?
I remeber during the president Clinton era, one could find almost nothing on the news or on online searches about Clinton except bad stuff in those conservative areas. If a community, state, or ISP could block or filter so much to their users in those days, what's going to stop them now?
Or perhaps people in very conservative areas are so brainwashed into thinking crossdressing or sissies are so bad, that they are in denial, & terrified to visit a related site? I am absolutely certain there are just as many crossdressers & sissies in a conservative community than in a liberal one.
The government of Iran proudly proclaims there are no gays or lesbians in their country, and they believe it! Nope. They just don't want to be tortured, killed, or imprisoned for life so hide well or in denial about it even to themselves.
