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.

And no, Democrats cannot be trusted on this either because they're pushing for the same thing.

None of your data or communications will be private. The government and corporations will go through all of it.
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.
@gwynnion And it will have sufficiently bad security that every criminal script kiddie will also have access.

@lil5 Yeah agree about IRC, I would also add XMPP over tor/i2p
I added Reticulum from a different perspective… more long term, LongNow? Not now exactly …
Given how commercially mediated the internet is there is very little trust it will be available when needed most
Hence, pointing to reticulum as a network stack which could be useful to build an alternative network of networks owned by individuals and communities which is a lot harder to break, stop, censure… it's just a thought
@DLC At this point your throwing protocols over the fence. Most privacy communities are on IRC lets just use that.
I'm talking about replacing Discord, not WhatsApp, where network effects are even more prevalent.
Also running your own IRC server is much easier, than XMPP or Matrix.
