This is unacceptable. And I’m sick of all the fucking workarounds to maintain basic privacy.
Stallman calls this “Service as a Software Substitute” (SaaSS): users operate weak “thin clients” while the real computing happens on someone else’s server. He argues this creates dependence and oppression because users cannot control, inspect, modify, or reliably access the software handling their data. He develops this argument in “What Does That Server Really Serve?” (2010).
Stallman was right!
……about software at least.
Scaned ID will never be targeted by hackers in order to set up some massive identity fraud, right? Or even if they try, the vibe coded online verification would be so secured that it is impossible for hackers to steal the datas, for once, isn’t it?
Who could already tell that it would be a massive security breach?
Future keep so big surprises for us ̂ ̂
I’m tired of this notion that society must protect children from reality. If parents want to raise their kids in stupid sheltered worlds, that’s their stupid fucking choice and should go no further than their choices for their kids. Sheltering children is a stupid concept. Parents should be explaining the crazy shit kids will see and give them a healthy way to absorb the bad in the world not trying to act like it doesn’t exist. We shouldn’t have to bend over backwards to capitulate to their idea of how a kid should be raised. I shouldn’t have to give up my privacy to prop up their fantasy. Personally, every kid I’ve seen be sheltered ends up a more fucked up adult. The world is fucked, kids should learn how to live in it.
Never, fuck em, FUCK EM ALL!
I was born in 1900. I said that the first time I entered a porn site and if something I will be consistent all my life.
However, the EFF believes that operating system providers such as Apple, Google, and Microsoft will require more personal information.
To protect the children, of course.
The real workaround is using Linux. Age verification isn’t truly enforceable in Open Source software
Apps will get your age range from your operating system using an application programming interface (API). In other words, they’ll ask the operating system for your age range and get a response.
It’s likely that we’ll get block if on Linux unless if the OS has a token for that check.
But I agree with you, Linux is the way to go. Windows will end up being a surveillance camera first and foremost, especially if you couple the “age” check with the cloud integration.
bet you $100 it won’t?
mine won’t :)
Lol, run a real OS you technotards. I use arch Linux btw.
The Illinois age verification law, however, applies to Linux distributions and other open-source operating systems.
Get fucked Illinois.
Their gun laws are inane too
If by “insane” you mean barely adequate, then I agree.
“Inane” not “insane”
Whats the difference
They are two different words, with distinct meanings.
Yea I thought someone might Tell me but nvm ig
No, s is.
goddammit of ALL the states, why IL???
As a European I didn’t know much about Illinois, weird place, ¾th of the whole state live in the metropolitan area around and in Chicago.
Yeah thats how populations work everywhere, majority of people are in the cities. Europe, as well as the entire rest of the planet is like that.

What are you supposed to do with work laptops and such that get passed around? Head of IT supposed to submit their ID for each one?
Shut the fuck up, nobody cares about your robot fanfiction. Know your fucking place, trash! Fucking robots, I don’t talk about no robots. They got no soul.

I will not comply. I do not care how hard it makes my life. This is a line in the sand I will not cross. If a social media asks me to upload my government-issued ID, that’s the end of that social media. If a computer asks me to use my government ID to use it, that’s not a computer I will use. The only online service I can see that would need my government issued ID is my bank. And that’s only because they are required to collect it in order for me to have an account. Everything else can go fuck right off.
The only thing I’m most worried about is losing my job over non compliance. I can handle not participating in society. But if that’s what it takes to draw the line, I’m really considering it now and finding an alternative way to live. It’s dumb that this can even be allowed. But at this point, it’s obvious that the top just wants wage slaves to exploit in every way possible. I can’t imagine my kids growing up like that, ya know? It’s got to stop
Monero jobs.
Great find, thanks
