However you look at it age verification is a major change to the internet and our freedoms.

We’ve seen all kinds of legislation pushed through in the past, often even against major resistance.

What makes me suspicious this time is the speed at which some of the slowest bureaucracies in the world are adopting it and how it’s happening in 20+ countries in parallel.

It’s like they’re all in a group chat, fast-tracking this before resistance can even form.

    I’m glad I have started my nest-making process. Offline games, older consoles, Linux PC, dumb phone, movies, books, music, board games, letter paper and envelopes… There’s no clear timetables on when the shit will properly hit the fan. I’m personally not going to send anyone my ID just to see a few memes or a pointless post. Most will, probably.

    Banking is going to be more difficult, they try to require the app for “safety.” Healthcare too, they want you to use their apps for forms or online appointments… And those apps don’t even work properly.
