Green Party follow up questions! Party has set up direct debit and I seem to be on membership mailing list, but I never got anything like a confirmation email.

I don’t know if the site’s no longer available or if my Google-fu is failing me, but does anyone know what that website that showed average internet speeds/costs for different countries was?

Pages had a black background w/ orange(?) accent. Single column. Lots of bar graphs.

This thumbnail is just so deep in the uncanny valley of not-quite-good photoshop compositions. It scares me.
