Corporate needs you to find the difference between [UK] and [China]

Yep, and “age verification” is just a euphemism for identity verification.
It’s a feature, not a bug. Not sure why so many headlines keep acting like it’s some kind of accident.
To reinforce the plausible deniability of politicians of course. It’s all about manufacturing consent.
Yep, that’s the plan.
It should be obvious by now that governments don’t give one fuck about protecting kids. Not one single fuck.
Well… Fucking and children and people associated with power … We have learned there is no real “not” in this Chain…
It’s frustrating that they act like we have privacy right now. The whole situation is typical absurd human behavior.
For the folks not exposed to the plan.
The Internet was cool while it lasted
The Internet is just a bunch of AS running open source protocols on commercially available infrastructure. It’s doing fine. The hosted commercial services might be fucked, but you can run your own.
You’re using such a service right now.
We’ll just continue to make our own internet with blackjack and hookers. Too much knowledge is already out.
Isn’t that just the “dark web”
Yeah, it’s also meshtastic, ham, p2p
We’ve got options and always will.
I assume unless they just make whitelist of sites you can connect to you can find workarounds.
Considering the recent comments from Merz that is indeed the point
These guys are actually begging for it.
Du hast Fotzenfritz falsch geschrieben
Algorithm-based, ad supported social media is a public health crisis and damages people of all ages. It should be destroyed. At that point we don’t have to worry about it’s effect on kids or them using VPNs to circumvent age restrictions.
Seems like a more effective solution to me.
The only way to use VPN with how things are going at this rate is through mail in cash or Monero.
With a bit of infrastructure, today you can detect and disrupt any VPN session. This is coming soon to your country, too.
You also can avoid all of these disruptions by camouflaging your packets as some generic protocol, which is already quite easy e.g. in Mullvad by using shadowsocks and ai disruption (randomising, among others, packet size and intervals). In fact, it will always be impossible to detect VPNs without deep packet inspection - and that would require banning ALL internet traffic encryption, which seems unrealistic because of the astronomical downsides, even in today’s political situation.
Yet another mullvad W
And here I don’t let my kids access the internet at all without a VPN
