To exist online in 10 years, you're going to have to give a random company a face scan and photo ID and they're going to give that and everything you post to the government to spy on you for being queer, left-wing, "a criminal," or whatever.

If you don't want that to happen, you should raise a stink about "age verification" right now because that's what they're actually building.
And no, Democrats cannot be trusted on this either because they're pushing for the same thing.

Everyone wants to build panopticon.
They're just claiming it's to "protect children" or for "antiterrorism" efforts or immigration screening or whatever bullshit they think you're most likely to swallow.
"AI" is about automating surveillance and if you think "AI" makes mistakes now, wait until it's what the government relies on when heavily armed masked men raid your home in the middle of the night.

Companies know the ad market is dying and never worked well in the first place. Maybe they hope having all your data will make it better. But they know there's always a buyer of last resort willing to pay a premium for your personal information: the government.
Who needs a warrant?

Ditto if you want to cross an international border.

@gwynnion in the UK, we have a masquerade of the Online Security Act, and worse, recently, our Prime Minister was trying to get my fellow citizens to sign up to a digital ID card scheme. We avoided that, but #Palantir has wormed its way into our much loved health service whilst supermarkets record us picking up onions

@gwynnion I am trying to push them to stool samples.
I figure I might be dead by then, and it will be a gift to the world.

Using IRC over i2p or Tor is how this ends.
Start learning how to use IRC now, so that you can use it over Tor later.
TheLounge or Convos are easy ways to start

@gwynnion In ten years you won’t own a computer anyway but rent cloud service that will record everything you do anyway and also deliver only government purified slop to you.

@gwynnion And your local device won't have ram or storage, it will all exist in the cloud, constantly monitored by machines, analysed by flawed algorithms, and used to judge you… and you will pay for it with your mandatory subscription fee which only gives you access to pre-approved & "appropriate" good apps and good data and a new advert every 20 seconds

@lil5 And try to find a way to get back on to usenet…
And consider #reticulum, bc we likely need to build our own network ourselves, local hackers everywhere, nodes connected by any means available, millions of local networks, at least occasionally inter-connected, using store & forward, delay & disruption tolerant protocols

@gwynnion It has already happened. Google, the NSA (and a few others) already know everything about us. But I agree that I don't want to give them any extra info on purpose.

And it's likely a good idea to learn some electronics knowledge and how to solder (incl SMD) and weld … and get a 3d printer while you still can…
Learn how to make a general purpose computer from literal scratch…
Make a computer out of ESP32, Raspberry Pico, etc…
Or find a hacker who can and make them part of your mutual aid network
Join or start a local hacker/maker space

@gwynnion 10 years is too generous, it's more like 1-2 years.

@gwynnion sorry to disappoint you but that's already happened. for quite a while now in fact. What's more, government knows everything about you anyway since forever because intelligence, counter-intelligence and all that. Nothing is private anymore. And even if you use vpn and such you still leave a lot of digital traces on the web.
