so much fluff in their findings. makes me think, they didnt research shit. this is gonna be terribly implemented.

their attempt wont be the end of the free web. but people will leave because they dont want their data breached by yet another bad actor. its just making the web more dangerous instead of safer.

no one has the tech and security to handle this. its waaaay too early. the breaches are going to substantial and continuous.

good luck Australia. stay safe.

is it still spying if everyone knows theyre doing it?

solar panels on earth could reduce it 100%

i feel like this is more of an inevitability. at one point we are going to be looking at law. and how absurd it is and how ita being broken by actual governments and big tech and be like you know what…fuck it. we ball. and suddenly we are the wild west again where no one gives a shit what the big man says because he is full of shit. and we just do whatever the fuck we want. sadly, i suspect guns are gonna play a big part on both sides.

all praise the autofill

With the amount of money pouring in you’d think they’d just pay for it

I’m just goofing. But thanks

ah ha! Guess that’s how we beat the system. People would need to sub to your instance though for you to post content right?

What would the pros and cons be?

Imagine if Spotify just opened the camera on your phone once a month when you first open the app that day. Just for like a split second. Theoretically it would be legal, for age verification. 🤮

Ah the laziness to not even set up an account that needs it. I didn’t consider that. Was more thinking of current users meeting the resistance.

Lemmy will be pressured into age verification also and most hosts will crumble. $50M per caught infraction is wild.

We gonna end up going back to libraries. Which actually would be cool as fuck. Like Yentl when all those dudes are hanging out in a big ass room talking philosophy. It’ll re-spark the postal service. Live music will thrive. Coz everyone will be like fuck the internet, we’ll do it live.

While I want to agree. I feel like normal people are still not gonna give a shit.

Oh like a custom yellowpages, sick!

Thanks will do!

Users data collection… Eeeew. That’s why I’m leaving windows. I’ll have a look at dynebolic thnx. My audio interface already doesn’t like Ubuntu so far so I’m gonna have to get techie with it anyway

Im at the level where I don’t know what SSO means. I can follow instructions to change a DNS. But what a DNS actually is I don’t know. Which is fine, until I need to work out what’s broken

Thanks. Yeah I’m just trying to work at it slowly in my downtime instead of just watching YouTube all night.

I’m pissed and confused with Ubuntu already. I think arch might shorten my lifespan even further.

I wanna get into it but man, the mountain of knowledge I need to even understand what people are talking about is hard to climb. I’m trying to just get some stuff running in docker and it fails to launch and I’m like… How?! Isn’t that the whole point of docker lol. Baby steps I guess

Yeah I’ve noticed that. Tryna work out how to delete most of them now lol. Cool to open them up and see what the are though
