A mess of a girl, free on the internet. A spicy meatball indeed :3

ah yes, as that’s going great for the US.
brought to you by the country that voted for brexit. ofcourse they will, after they get done smoking blunts rolled in 12yr old immigrants undergarments and sniffing paint fumes from laundry bags (actual kinks if some of the UKs wealthiest…)
the law wouldn’t hold up in court anyway. its not practical for any ecosystem outside online sites.
accounts and users are the same thing, despite what the law says. it also doesn’t different a person from a user, meaning a compromised system that is complying with the law, its actions represent the user, and the account holder is held responsible.
its made to absolve meta/Microsoft/google from their actions in targeting kids with intentionally addictive content and making the “account holder” at fault.
are you sure it’s even a person, not a bot? because this all screams either bot or seeking internet fame as the “hero to kids”.
because it’s all part of a larger project to collect usable data. you can’t force standards, but you can force laws.
if you build a standard and no one follows it. then it’s wasted time and money. Meta, Google and Microsoft all have a vested interest in user data. more so with law enforcement buying it in bulk to build identity profiles of /individuals/.
if tomorrow they got added to the law to store and transmit a string of your government ID, would you be more resistant?
the issue is, VPNs hide your ISPs assigned IP. till now there has been a higher difficulty in differentiating traffic from the same IP with similar metadata. the more user specific metadata that’s added, the easier it is to differentiate devices and users.
this makes targeting specific devices with malware for spying significantly easier. at the very least.
but at a bigger point of view, it gives provable cause because the way the law is written implies every user that installs the OS becomes a OS distributor and every user is a minor by definition, even if the API flag says otherwise.
I recommend you read that again and if the words “probable cause” don’t come to mind you don’t understand the risk of a “minor” identifying as a adult.
yes. every time in the history of gnu software when a function is added without a purpose its for a later feature.
otherwise there is no need for the form? since when do we leave empty forms in software that can be used to store strings, that hold no meaning…
only two uses for this. to implement the full API later or to have a string the user normally does not see that becomes a perfect place to store malware. full stop.
complying with the API is a act of absolute stupidity…
not really, the law is written that complaince makes you complicit. every user is a child. there is no adult users.
above all else, even if the API is used properly, unless it’s giving false positives, it creates a metric that can be tracked to form patterns. these are all a advanced method to identify individuals to unmask online identities…

I think they are trying to say “Some people will use this” but it’s more than likely the opposite “Linux should be forced not to have a exclusion. protect kids” blah blah blah, boot tastes good.
because every argument for this, assumes it’s not a push by meta to collect more data and train AI…
In all honesty I hope all of this crashes and burns, like previous terrible ideas. punish the platforms, kids and parents. don’t punish everyone else.
