Age verificationMass Surveillance, there FTFY.Thing is, governments aren’t making age a condition; they’re making identity verification a condition. Age is just the excuse.
Least I can see where to point my VPN now! Thanks.
Really useful. Thank you!
They missed Canada? Canada has a bill C-34 in the works which bans social media for under-16s and just happens to require everyone to submit their ID to non-Canadian corporations.
I would actually love Proton to spin up a service for age verification that actually does just that. Be it only to see how fast governments start complaining when they tell them they don't have any data on their users...
How can they just enforce this? I guess I know how they intend to, but I don’t trust these corporations to handle this properly and I sure as hell don’t think some governments will have citizen’s interests at heart, so whatever service they force into requiring me give my ID for, just won’t get me as a user. Or will lose me as one.
I’m prepared to go back to writing letters and sending scrapbooks. Screw them all.
