Discord will begin testing new forms of Age verification, face scans will still be an option, but now they will trial accepting Google Wallet & credit Card Checks. Face scans will now occur On-Device with a new vendor named "Incode"

the #surveillanceEconomy is #humanTrafficking. it may not be chattel #slavery but it *is* from a financial PoV:

companies re-writing our lives as "data", use those fictions to make billions with stocks & bonds. just like slave traffickers of yore.

when slavery was abolished, the loophole were indentured laborers’ debt files. when carpetas were outlawed, they became credit reports.

So bad-news/good-news

Both California & Colorado are going ahead with their HORRIBLE Age-verification bills, however, both are now specifically excluding Open-Source OS's.

IMO the bill should not exist in the first place, and should not pass, and is a giant publicity stunt that will cost tons of time, effort, and money, but ultimately fail to do a single thing to protect kids.

I helped a customer set up a Straight Talk/Tracfone yesterday, and it already had the Age ID question. That is all, just a question about age and if the phone would be in a child's possession.

Also, this is the second interaction with Straight Talk and the AI bot used to set up a phone of this sort.
