Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal
ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 2 weeks agoYes. The solution for bots and foreign actors filling social media with propaganda is to identify it’s users. What’s the downside, in EU specifically, to giving social media companies your ID? What are they going to do with it they don’t do already?

Get hacked and leak it for starters, as has already happened with Discord. And social media is a loose definition that can be expanded to include whatever you want. Currently Lemmy and Mastodon are not included but it could be. And Lemmy currently has none of my personal information so uploading my ID would be infinitely worse than what we have now. And before you say it’s not feasible to force all instances to comply or be blocked that won’t stop them trying.
