Use Linux, if you need windows put that shit in a VM.

IMO, we all need to learn QuebeOS… The digital landscape is getting scarier days by days

In order to protect the children, you have to give us their juicy, delicious personal information. You see, without that scrumptious information that advertisers clamor for, how else are we to know not to show little Timmy beheading videos on our platform? For all we know, that predator is chatting with a 35 year old when they tell them that they’re really mature for their age. There really is nothing we can do if you don’t let us feed your information into the machine.

It also drives me nuts as a non-American that random states in America can pass laws that I then have to deal with.

I mean I already use Linux but I’m sure I’m going to bump into this somewhere eventually. I think this might be the final straw though, I pretty much don’t use any social media as it is, this might be the thing that just makes me detach from the internet altogether, or as much as humanly possible at least.

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.

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).

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 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.

bet you $100 it won’t?

Lol, run a real OS you technotards. I use arch Linux btw.

mine won’t :)

The real workaround is using Linux. Age verification isn’t truly enforceable in Open Source software

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.

No, it won’t. Or I’d just uninstall that package.

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?

The Illinois age verification law, however, applies to Linux distributions and other open-source operating systems.

Get fucked Illinois.
