@JamesBaker #UK really wants to be known as a #cyberfascist shithole, I guess.

• "#AgeVerification" IS the #IllicitActivity!

#Cyberfascism

@Eichi the sheer idea is #cyberfascist bs and I'm glad that #SystemD yeeted it.

• Not shure if it was @pid_eins 's decision.

@nik @torproject @mullvadnet I find that too bad, but back then it made sense since usernames rarely were long enough and in the academic-scientific envoirment of #Unix (and most of the #Internet) #Anonymity and #Privacy weren't priorities at all back then.

• But given today's context, thesse fields should not only be optional, but actually be expunged.
  • Or at the very least, one should not add anything to them that has no "legitimate reason" for it.

"#AgeVerification" is #Cyberfascist| Bullshit and it's being pushed by #NSAbook / #StasiBook / #Facebook / #Meta as means to kill competition like the #Fediverse!

@nik The problem is that #SystemD even considered this #Cyberfascist shitshow, instead of Refusing to Comply as a matter of principle!

• Because once they bended to #Cyberfascism, they'll continue to get abused and shafted!
  • I.e. #Russia demanding "#KYC" for any #WiFi device or
  • "P.R." #Chiba mandating a #Kernel-side block of @torproject / #Tor & #VPN|s.

Not a fan of #VPNs but @mullvadnet 's right with their " #AndThen ?" #ad campaign…

@anyia @raphaelmorgan @briankrebs if it was my decision (I'm not @bsi sadly!) I'd mandate #OpenSource #Firmware & #Hardware (down to the #Schematics and last Transistor/Diode in the Chips!) to allow any #Netowrk equipment to be sold, and explicitly ban nations with offensive Cyber capabilities and/or known #Govware and/or #Cyberfascist laws.

• #NSA programs and #CouldAct would disqualify the #USA either way!

@TheLastOfHisName instead of DHH's ego trip, consider @OS1337, cuz I'll #RefuseToComply with that #cyberfascist horseshite as well...

#sarcadm #shitpost

@privacyguides also refuse to comply with #cyberfascist demands and NEVER negotiate with #Terrorists regardless of uniform!

https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/116270391364999713

@nixCraft thus the only valid reaction is to proactively refuse to comply and actively sabotage such #cyberfascist efforts!

• I mean, what's next?
  • #Russia's #Roskomnadnozr demanding "#KYC" of #Users for using #WiFi chipsets?
  • "P.R." #China's "Cybersecurity Administration" demanding system-wide blocking of #VPN & @torproject / #Tor?

Just like noone should comply with that #cyberfascism, so should noone comply with #US-based cyberfascism either!

• Use #Monero and give #ITAR the finger…
  • Refuse to finance #terrorism by refusing to create taxable revenue for U.S. corporations!

I certainly won't comply with cyberfascism in @OS1337 and any "#AgeVerification" is #fascist bullshit under false pretense that needs to be outlawed!

@pan @cas I'd rather consider fleeing in those cases than compliance, espechally since said maintainers are privilegued enough to be able to relocate.

• Also what is the government gonna do if they refuse?
  • Steal their FLOSS projects??

If we allow this #cyberfascist #blackmail once, we'll open the floodgates to such #extortion elsewhere and normalize it.

• What's next?
  • Will we allow #Roskomnadnozr to mandate #KYC in OSes??
  • Allow "P.R." Chinas "Cyberspace Agency" to mandate OS-wide Blockades of @torproject / #Tor & #VPN|s??

The sheer concept of *"#AgeVerification is #cyberfascism and needs to be refused as a matter of principle!

@electric_gumball yes and I stick with it.

• And I expect others to #RefuseToComply to #Cyberfascist demands like "#AgeVerification" aka. State-mandated #SelfDoxxing!
  • I'll never forgive nor forget those that don't!
