Surprised that it took so long.

I have not and will not give my ID to any online service that isn’t the fucking government literally forcing me to do it or starve to death.
government literally forcing me to do it or starve to death.
Don’t worry, thats coming.
I mean… Yeah? That’s how all government programs work already here? They require your ID or you don’t get them.
No, i mean, soon the government will force you to upload your i.d. for non-governmental sercices like social media
Ahh well yeah in that case yes. That too.
no shit. it is insane to me when i get prompted for one by some BS service is use for fun. it just means i quit using that service forever, but if i mention this to family and far too many friends/colleagues, they are like “what do you mean? it just takes a few minutes and its easy with your phone!”
like as though my resistance is a technical limitation.
this is a lot of what I’m like dealing with in tech, no it’s not because I can’t, I don’t want to for very good reasons.
I mean, if you want to show why age verification photos are a bad idea, this is one way to do it.
1.5 terabytes of age verification pics
holy shit
Including children btw
Are we protecting the children yet??
Literally everyone with half a brain said that this was bound to happen, if online ID verification laws were enacted. The only thing that is surprising to me is that it only took ~60 days.
But the bourgeois governments don’t care about peoples’ privacy. They only saw the money to be made with verification companies and the deanonymizing effect on the internet. On the user this only has chilling effects and makes it more simple to censor information on the internet by labeling it 18+
It wasn’t us it was the company we contracted out to. Oh great
When I was a kid and read Dune the first time the obsession of characters with “plots within plots” and hidden moves seemed a bit, well, obsessive.
Lo and behold my life 25 years later and everything is just a Matryoshka doll of shell companies within shell companies, contracting to subcontractors, everything a pea soup fog of unaccountability.
does anyone have more experience or knowledge with stoat/revolt? it seems way more user friendly than matrix but i dont know if the people behind it are weirdos/creeps/chuds.
I feel lucky that my gang of discord friends are so privacy focused that some of them consider registering to vote in their state to be self-doxxing. They’d nuke our server before letting discord force them to put in a government id.
No word about the UK Online Safety Act lol
Found this on privacyguides a few days back
