Comment on Zuckerberg’s “Fix” for Child Safety Could End Anonymous Internet Access for Everyone
blitzen@lemmy.ca 1 day agoWhile I think your intent is fine, there’s no way I’d trust a for-profit company– Facebook no less– to be the gatekeeper. Their priority is and will always be to wring every possible cent out of your data/privacy. That it might align with children’s safety is coincidental at best, and in any case temporary.

TBH, I don’t trust them any further than I can throw them. If it comes to that, I’ll use an old ID with invalid info.
This is a lesser of two evils thing.

The answer (IMO) isn’t to succumb to their demands, it’s to cease using their platform. I promise you, you can do without Facebook (or insert any other problematic platform).

Unfortunately, in some communities, that’s still impossible to do fully.
Hopefully that’ll change with time.

Inconvenient ≠ impossible.
