Is that a way to make win11 less unpopular?

Thanks, honestly I had not actually read the bill before coming here to shitpost, and it seems like yeah it’s more well-intentioned than people are giving it credit for.

I still have serious reservations about the broadness, vagueness, and premise that mandatory age signals are a good idea at all – it’s a lateral move at best; weakly attempting to curb the most overtly predatory parts of the whole “age verification” movement, without opposing the idea itself.

But you’re right, it’s not the blatant data-vacuuming law that I think some people imagine it to be.

IMO the real solution to preventing kids getting into adult content is for Governments to agree on and enforce a universal set of parental controls that every program and website has to respect. Put the onus on parents to make sure their kids aren’t doing that stuff.

But that’s not the world we’re working with. Instead Governments have decided they’re going to play nanny, and it would appear nobody is taking no for an answer.

So from a practical perspective, if I’m going to have to play along, I’d much rather my own computer handle my sensitive data locally and prove my age for me, than multiple fuckwits’ servers off who-knows-where holding onto that data per website I want to visit.

If you do plan on going please double check the address. I had a heck of a time trying to find out where and when this even was. But it looks really cool.

I hope the event will get some videos of the different presenters!

Not all counter culture is good I suppose.

The ones im looking at are talking about LoRa and other alternative meshnet stuff.

Pseudonymity has never been perfect for preserving privacy. Soon it may be pointless.

The scary part of this is that they have all the time in the world to perfect this while my Reddit comments are just sitting there, waiting.

And now you understand why they are pushing for my butt data centers everywhere.

So they can spy on everyone, figure out who is talking about what, and have it quickly identified and summarized, at all times.

Don’t just imagine this being about you and your own nothing to hide.

This is about squashing dissent, lying to voters/hiding vote manipulation, manufacturing consent, corporate espionage/market manipulation, basically anything you can think of that having advanced knowledge of would benefit them.

There is a reason they named the company Palantir.

Microsoft is probably managing the Discord server to the best of their CoPilot recommendations.

It has never been complex: using a tool that has never yielded good results is a liability and harms your credibility. Don’t use it.
