@Sonlight there's a long tradition of naming creepy companies after creepy things from Tolkien ;(

@charlesdelavalleepoussin the answer, in case of the UK, lies in a 2000-page-long document. The topic is complicated, and I'm not qualified to talk about it in depth, unfortunately.
@nina_kali_nina @charlesdelavalleepoussin Basically some countries will no longer have clearnet instances. -

I joined Discord because a blog suggested it would be great for meeting others doing research on genealogy.
It's been noisy and useless and I haven't used it for years.
It's a good time to delete the account.

@nina_kali_nina There are reasons why my #Facebook profile picture has been a caricature for years.

@nina_kali_nina Evidently there's an accord to dis cords now...

oh ok.
I would urge readers not to have blind faith in things like Signal or Tor.
This is from 2013, over a decade ago, they've advanced since:
"The National Security Agency (“NSA”) has developed techniques to circumvent the anonymity offered by the Tor network. "

@charlesdelavalleepoussin @lispi314 well, it's less about this, and more about "there is no internet unless you login with your account tied to your passport" which is pretty bad

indeed, some billionaires are demanding every user on the internet is never anonymous
""the authenticity of every person that expresses themselves online""

@nina_kali_nina Thiel is nearly an anagram of evil, the nature infused into his core it seems.

I'm no expert but we do check age when selling alcohol, vapes or knives in shops.
In a shop the vendor looks at the photo ID (eg student card, driving license, other) but does not keep it.
That seems to be a proportionate approach.
Sadly I don't know of anything equivalent in the digital world.
@charlesdelavalleepoussin @ariarhythmic @nina_kali_nina There is also no cloning of faces in a face-to-face meeting.
There is every possibility for ”age verification” farming in digital settings if there is no permanent connection to an official ID.

@nina_kali_nina Interesting. I got a much more "we're doing this, but in as privacy protecting way as we're able" impression from their press release the other day.
I'm satisfied I made the right decision regardless of how they presented it. (Closing my account).@GerardThornley @nina_kali_nina Yeah, I'm pretty happy with my decision to never sign up.
Was hard sometimes when I needed help on some open source project that had decided that would be their support method.
Just too much experience already with this sort of thing. Seemed obvious this would happen. Not sure what I expected, maybe not this, but I knew it would be something.
You can't even talk about this stuff without being told you're horrible though.

@Sonlight @nina_kali_nina They're a semi-secret business owned by a man who thinks Gretta Thrumburg is one of the rising anti-christs. They build primarily military and spy equipment. They're turning it on civilians all across the globe and are especially dug in here in the USA with the current regeime, who they're using to try to gain power for themselves. The man who owns it is one of the richest people on the planet and very much thinks he should be in charge.
Basically Lord Sauron.

@nina_kali_nina We should leave platfroms who are willing to compromise on our most personal data. We all know they have incentives that help them, not us.
Age-checks, digital ID etc WON'T make the internet safer.
Did we fix spam? or DDOS?
Best alternative seems Telegram. Pavel keeps a straight back, figting for users first! Great guy!
