Use waifuAI to upscale my old p0rn collection sleeping deep inside that odly named directory for 20 years and think about the good old time of emule and razorback.
I will leave the internet and seek alternatives.
Gopher and I2P as well
I guess I’ll start pirating things like local news, weather forecasts, and garbage pickup schedules.
In the meantime, I’ll continue to self-host what I can, de-couple from online services, and find alternatives to get information from.
Fake ID generator? 🤣
i’m gonna be an irish r&b singer
I belive that’s from Superbad. 🙂 https://libremdb.iket.me/title/tt0829482
Hard to say.
Sounds like the alternatives are to suck it up, leave the country for somewhere that isn’t the case yet, stop using the internet…
There definitely is a line where requiring nonsense is more effort than it is worth. That line has already definitely been crossed by “news media”. The quality of articles and interviews is so abysmal, that any hear say you get over three rebounds over social media is still somehow equal to the original bad source.
Social media is on the edge. I don’t expect to have a serious discussion on facebook or twitter, that’s why I don’t go there. If it’s easier to hang out in a bar near a library to hope someone worth talking to walks in or something like that. That will be the thing to do.
And also, that line will probably just never be actually crossed for internet platforms like amazon or alibaba. Shipping and ordering things online is absurdly convenient compared to go to physical locations and them needing to have the thing stocked, etc…
Most of (open source) software is already built in a way that could be taken offline completely. Internet is just a fast and easy delivery mechanism, but carrying USB sticks is extremely viable for getting code from A to B
And for entertainment, I can honestly just go back to reading books. It’s not the total information super highway, but it would be something.
the internet won’t ask shit, specific websites will, which can and should be avoided
Stop using the Internet. Seriously.
I already only used open source products for decades now, and the Internet is just a network, you can use different networks, different protocols if you want, even embedded on current Internet protocols, or maybe use even something that completely sidesteps the Internet
Either way, the Internet has mostly been a failure
I dont mind if its implemented like it has been in germany for a while with eID. With an open source desktop or mobile app that uses NFC to talk to your ID and can be used to verify your age online to a 3rd party without leaking your birthday or any other personal info to them.
I dont know why there is so much screaming about age verification going on when these cryptographically provable anonymous systems already exist. Remember that “stop killing games” EU campaign with a million signatures? That also used exactly this system.
I would prefer not having any verification, but as that is not gonna happen at this point, i think its more important to focus on HOW to implement it. I dont understand why these companies like discord arent being forced to use these existing verification systems. Those arent legally provable at all so why arent they being sued for this?
It’s very unlikely that most states will use a truly open source solution, especially when big tech makes it so easy not to. Case in point: https://github.com/eu-digital-identity-wallet/av-doc-technical-specification/discussions/19#discussioncomment-13964507
what different networks or protocols does exist?
Tor for one, it rides on top of the internet.
All of my services are in a WireGuard VPN. The Internet only transports my VPN traffic. My cloud services run in a locked box, in my house and the only thing coming out of that box is VPN traffic.
To my devices, they just think that they’re on a LAN.
I do use this site, but I limit/lie about personal details and use a VPN. I assume I’m identifiable and act accordingly.
stop using internet and we can go back spending more time in farms, book, etc. what a peaceful day ✨
We will then need people like you to bring awareness about alternatives we will be able to shift to. That’s probably how most of us ended up here
I will just work around it. Unless they overhaul some very low level networking stuff, it will be hard to keep us from sites like hexbear
The Internet is a bunch of Autonomous Systems running open protocols like BGP. Packets have no passports.
UTP: “have a nice trip. DGAF if you actually arrive tho”.
Tor Network.
I2P.
Autonomi.Start selling a service to businesses providing Age verification for dirt cheap and implement it in a way that can’t be secured and that issues single use tokens. (The keys get routinely leaked to privacy advocates) so businesses can claim they are completely complying with the law while saving money and the people who care about privacy can easily get around it basically everywhere
As online spaces start to demand I dox myself, I will remove myself from those online spaces (see: Reddit). If that means I ultimately leave the internet as a whole, then so be it.
I’ve been planing on going outside, this might just be the kick I need
