@Em0nM4stodon Remember these cowards for years told you that it was too costly & complex to follow laws to keep you safe.

Tech bros when the law protects consumers: "It's too hard, there's nothing we can do"

Tech bros when the law wants them to narc to fascists: "We must comply right away, so tomorrow we're globally rolling out our new Buttverify system, our new ai agent that crawls up your anus and takes a picture to send to your country's Customs agency."

@Em0nM4stodon Whenever I see discussions about online ID/age verification come up, I tend to see a few people speaking up about ZKP (zero knowledge proofs). Admittedly, I know almost nothing about it, but a cursory read on the subject makes it sound like it could be a solution to the problem.

Of course, this is assuming that one takes the stated/claimed problems (e.g. protecting age-restricted spaces from those who are underage) at face value. When it's more likely that the goal of these programs is broad surveillance and control, which nobody would willingly accept if it was presented so plainly.

@Em0nM4stodon That’s deep. I never thought about it like that. Saying no to sharing my data feels kinda rebellious now. Power to the people!

@Em0nM4stodon if it is something you WANT to see for any valid reason including curiosity* figure out how to get it surreptitiously...an easy example is to troll friends online who have consumed the info already, there are many ways to procure content, foia and lawsuits being legal, and of course I would never advocate breaking any laws.

Especially now. For all our protection.

But encourage the little daily praxes as a way to stay aware, nimble and reàdy for good opportunities

*As long as the curiosities are not, like, Epstein class

@Em0nM4stodon no plans on it! I don't have much else to say but I think the amount of info you have to give away these days is just gross

We need to boycott any platforms that request personally identifying information. They won't stop doing it until we hit them where it hurts - in the wallet.

@Em0nM4stodon This this this. I just came back to the fediverse after fully leaving Meta and Snapchat ++ behind. I guess I’m leaving Discord soon too.
