Soon Reddit users need to prove that they are human using ID verification. Your site is already garbage and I am not giving you any ID.

Mastdon and Fedi seems to doing fine without any ID.

@nixCraft The number sites that have audacity to ask for ID like nothing is too high. I don't even want to sign in, usually.

I mean, yea, social media and putting yourself on the internet has become so normalized that when I ask people about privacy and why they don't care about anonymity, people just say to me "I have nothing to hide."

I've said this once before and I'll continue to say it as a metaphor, "people are dying from mediocrity," as in, they are slowly becoming more desensitized of their privacy in return of convenience.
Now people are providing government ID.

Some people say that sooner or later we'll be the people in the dystopian society in wall-E. Functionally and behaviorally speaking we're already there.
