We are rapidly approaching the point where there is ZERO privacy. And virtually no free speech.
Back in March I wrote for The Guardian about how a “social media ban” for children is just forced Digital ID by another name. These policies are nothing more than mass surveillance and authoritarianism theguardian.com/commentisfre…

continua a enorme ignorância e confusão entre "propriedade" e "comportamento" a respeito das redes sociais e o seu acesso. E essa confusão demonstra mais a decrepitude intelectual do que não saber resolver um limite pela Regra de Cauchy

The social media ban for young people won't change much for young people but it will force us all to provide personal data.
Instead of more intrusion, why not make big tech take more responsibility for controlling content? #bbcpm

Regardless of whether or not you think this is a good idea, this verification process sounds like the sort of unholy, unworkable, ill-conceived, impractical stupidity that only a group of politicians, tech folk, and bureaucrats could have come up with...

é aldrabice que turmas e escolas teriam que fechar. Esta gente tem o cérebro tão pequeno que nem sabem como as turmas hoje em dia estão enormes por todo o lado ou como se abrem turmas. Ah e escolas a fechar tem um critério rigoroso que não é transposto deste modo

a quantidade de dinheiro publico que estes gajos mamaram para fechar meses depois. Os founders estao todos a começar empresas novas. O truque básico do patrão portugues. A questão é porque é que estamos a financiar estes parasitas?

I'm not opposed to banning social media for under 16 kids. In fact, I believe it could be a good measure. I'm totally opposed to digital ID enforcement for everyone. Capice? Is that clear, you imbecile doughnut?

and, if you say you can only enforce the former with the latter, you are a fascist silly old c1nt. The social media companies who use ML for a lot of things can easily use pattern recognition for access control and for dynamic access behaviour. They can do it without digital ID

Instead of trying to ban under-sixteens from using social media, governments should force tech companies to employ teenagers as mentors with the job of teaching ethics, empathy, and basic human decency to the sociopathic manbabies who own the social media platforms.

This happened in Australia. 61% of Australian kids found ways around the ban. It has nothing to do with protecting children. After failing to push digital ID through the front door, Labour is now trying to force it through the back door under the guise of protecting children.

there it is. The Orwellian state of mind. this is nothing about under 16 kids, it's about forcing everyone to have digital ID. This is the GenAI companies' pot of gold

It’s important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s.
It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.

banir jovens menores de 16 anos parece uma boa ideia até perceberem qual será uma das alternativas e garanto-vos que será bem pior a médio e longo prazo. LLMification

estranho que ande tanta gente a falar do futuro da universidade e nenhum ligado o IE ou ao CIPES. Um país de energúmenos a escrever para idiotas e ignorantes
