if people stopped giving all these corporations their age or id/kyc info and just canceled their subscriptions or accounts for 4 months we'd see how fast they stop asking once those next quarter results show up.

governments would wake up pretty fast with less VAT, GST, and Tax revenue, too. you give them an inch and they will take a mile. cut that inch and cut their source of revenue, and they will all fall in line.

that is the only solution to all these stupid laws.

@nixCraft true, but most people will never collectively do that.

80% of people are just basically sheep who will do whatever they're told. It's up to the 20% of us who are stubborn assholes to fix things for everyone else.

80%? Thats quite generous.

I'd say its more like 95% :D

You would think, but no. There's a lot more weirdos out there that you think! Most of us are just masking.

Sure, theres a lot of us. But how many? 2 million? 5 million? 10 million? That's nothing compared to the billions who don't give a shit :D

Maybe its just my pessimism blinding me, I dunno.

Out of curiosity I had a look at firefox add-on numbers. 10 million have installed ublock, less than 2 have installed privacy badger... I know those numbers don't really mean much but I see those as the minimum of what one should have. Those numbers should have a zero or two more
