watching all the ads and tracking domains get blocked is not guilty at all for me. i could do it all day.

i feel bad for the innocents the nazi jackboots are coming to murder.

if you count what we are pretty sure was an attempt at a color revolution, yeah

i’m pretty sure the us will try more regime change, yes.

will they try it by killing the leader again? hard to tell.

… who are the bad guys again?

seems the us have failed their regime change attempt.

good joke. haha

businessman try not to peddle subscriptions challenge (level impossible)

i presume this dude knows how shitty their food really is

this is cool. we actually need more of this sort of thing as corporations clamp down on tech.

still a foot on the door. if we assume the real goal is to identify every internet user, a mandatory os-level system for storing a a bit of personal data is definitely step number one.

once they have the data and the internet adopts this, requiring transmission or broadening the scope bit by bit is just a few updates away.

no, you are not forced to input any truthful information nor credit cards or id checks or facial recognition just yet, except for banks and stuff. being forced to “because of the kids!” and having it enforced at the OS level against your will changes everything.

most sites (that i use at least) usually have multiple payment methods with varying levels of “privacy” that doesn’t really force you to identify yourself to them.

yes, and i’m calling attention to one of them. blindly accepting their premise is defeat right out of the gate.

by socially normalizing consent for it, and setting up the initial infrastructure for it to work.

i mean in the sense this sets up the infrastructure for and normalizes invasive identification systems that could in the future be used to say, demand your id or face scanning for you to even access the internet or use computers at all, not just age restricted stuff. of course we can only speculate how they could use this for nefarious purposes.

as in a slippery slope, might have been a better way to put it.

it doesn’t even require that much bandwidth. can very much be used in conjunction with other stuff.

i don’t get your question. what do software like krita has to do with anything?
