- Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal 2 weeks ago:
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.
- Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal 2 weeks ago:
That really doesn’t ease my concern that it’s just more government surveillance
- Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal 2 weeks ago:
Its not just about social media, the scope keeps changing and these laws are being used as a framework for mass censorship and surveillance of the entire internet. First it was just porn, now it’s social media and next will probably be VPNs. And social media is a loose definition that can be expanded to include whatever you want, I’m sure at one point Australia were going to include github in their age verification law although I don’t know if they followed through with that.
And sure for now we can escape to platforms like Lemmy which are free from both age verification and the general shittiness of the big platforms, but guarantee it won’t stay that way for long.
- Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal 2 weeks ago:
And the solution to that is to give the billionaires your government ID?
- Comment on For Spain’s Sánchez, the fight against tech billionaires is personal 2 weeks ago:
Fight against billionaires Look inside Surveillance and censorship of everyone else

- Comment on Satya Nadella insists people are using Microsoft’s Copilot AI a lot 3 weeks ago:
I love having a search box on my taskbar. I want it to search my PC for installed apps and files and nothing else. I certainly don’t want to do a fucking Bing search for “Settings”

They’ll probably force some bullshit age verification on it

Its probably best for everyone if the UK government remains ignorant of the existence of Mastodon
- Comment on Rockstar vs. Union: What Really Happened at Court? | People Make Games 1 month ago:
Tl:dw for anyone who isn’t in a position to watch the video, the evidence provided by Rockstar is a complete joke as expected, but apparently that wasn’t enough to convince the judge to grant interim relief. I highly recommend watching the whole video if you get the chance though, PMG have been doing a very good job of covering this topic so far.

Just in case you’ve not heard of it, I can highly recommend Immich. If you’re familiar with Docker it’s incredibly easy to set up, and even if you’re not it’s not that complicated.

Oof yeah I can’t blame you for leaving after that, I can’t imagine it made you feel particularly welcome! Things do seem to be getting worse and worse every year
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 2 months ago:
Oh I definitely agree, and I didn’t vote for them. However I was still cautiously optimistic when they won last year as I thought surely they have to be an improvement over the Tories? Turns out I couldn’t have been more wrong
- Comment on When THIS happened it was so annoying 2 months ago:
Companies back then: Here is a piece of physical media to purchase. It’s yours until you break it or lose it.
Companies a few years ago: Fuck you. We know you purchased this digital media with your hard earned money but due to licensing bullshit we no longer own the rights to it. If you look at page 3462 of the EULA that you definitely read and explicitly agreed to you’ll see we reserve the right to take it back from you at any time, which we are now doing.
Companies now: Lol you actually want to purchase stuff you fucking dumbass? Pay us a subscription for all eternity and if you’re lucky you may temporarily have access to what you want
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 2 months ago:
As long as they can still access TikTok and Instagram they probably won’t even care
