Stop Killing Games isn't enough, it's also time to Stop Killing the Internet.

Starmer: We want to digitally ID everyone who uses social media Brits: Absolutely Not! Starmer: OK then, we want to ban under 16s from social media (by digitally ID-ing everyone) Brits: OMG that’s a great idea. Idk what idiot would be against that 🥴

It's important to remind everyone that ID verification and social media bans are not to protect children, but another device in the government's arsenal to slowly control the population and move towards authoritarianism. Unless people actually start protesting against this, nothing will change. For a politician, the primary goal is to stay in power and make money. Tracking people online is a great help in achieving that. Crying "it's for the kids" will not help when every device nowadays comes with parental control tools which are better and better every day. Plus, parents are the ones that should decide how their kid should be raised, not the government. From the Computer Science point - it's simply impossible for an ID verification system to have all three at once: - anonymity: Site doesn't know who you are, government can't trace back your account to your name. - non-linkability: Your visit on Site A cannot be linked to your visit on Site B - non-shareability: You can't post some "token" everyone can copy and use to pretend to be an adult A working system for anonymous age verification is simply impossible, mathematically. The solution? The damn parental control tools on every modern phone. Parents set up screen time limits, or app restrictions. Or, better yet, actually talk to your kid! Crazy, right? IDK about the UK, but for example in Poland, we literally have it written in the constitution, that parents are the ultimate authority over how they want to raise their kids. It's not the government's job to police what a kid can, and cannot access online, even more so when we move away from "actually illegal (gambling, for example)" to "idk man we (the govt) think its bad". Push for parents' awareness of parental control tools, the dangers of the internet, and make parents actually know how to parent their kids. After that, it's none of the govt's business. Unfortunately it seems that more and more countries are giving up those freedoms and falling for the boil-the-frog approach, and might realize far too late. The EU is my last bastion of hope at this point, and even that is... not excellent in this regard at the moment.

Their followers are crazy 💀

UK ‘public consultation’ on the social media ban notice how they didn’t give the option to say no? Illusion of democracy.

i guarantee you it fucking wont

sonic 2 but all sprites were ripped off google

they would rlly rather make these dumbass benches than just support homeless ppl man

Starmer’s ban on social media isn’t a ban for 17 year olds and below. It’s a ban for the entire population, until you identify yourself and link your social media to your ID. It was never about protecting children.

Pretty sure this is all coordinated between key Western states that want to end online anonymity

it really sucks to be small and powerless and to have a bunch of distant suits decide that cutting you off from the people and places you appreciate is the right move for your own good

People defending this are pretty idiotic imo, it should be up to parents to... Parent, not the government. This never seemed like it was about protecting kids, just surveilling adults easier. Let parents parent, if they don't, punish them. Let kids be kids

WAITER WAITER MORE HAND DRAWN COMMERCIALS PLEASE

A día de hoy, un "IA bro" te diría que esto es imposible de conseguir por un humano y que seguro que lo ha hecho una IA. Porque sí, en ese mundo vivimos ahora

Parents REALLY don't like hearing this sort of thing is inherently their own fault. If you give a 5 year old a tablet, it is crack to them. the best way to fix something like this is not to give the child a tablet at all.

Too many people are watching a genocide take place on their phones so we must force the digital ID AI surveillance age

Is it really worth it?? 🥺 #meme #shitpost #creepypasta #suicidemouse #wednesdaysinfidelity #maxandruby0004
