The entire adult population of Britain now has to log on to the Internet with their government ID? Good fucking luck.

We could’ve had a real conversation about how to protect and help kids, but these people are not interested in that.

Parents would rather destroy the privacy of the entire population, than talk to their children

Parents would rather build a Great Firewall of China than install parental controls on their kids iPad.

That feeling when saying no to your kid is so hard you’d rather do 1984.

It’s like parents don’t realize that their kids will eventually be adults, and have to spend the rest of their lives under a surveillance regime the likes of which the world has never known.

I am so done with folks saying they are willing to sacrifice my privacy for their personal convenience. Dude. Log off. Log off the whole thing.

@patigallardo.bsky.social Why is it my responsibility to police your child? I have my own to worry about.

It's almost like big tech is lobbying hard for this so they can sell age verification services to small businesses. They will require tight integration, which will allow them to get more data that they can use to sell ads.

They will tease small businesses with a subscription fee, then just jack it up. I can't wait for it to burn like what happened in South Korea

Don't you love how quickly people get drawn into becoming free speech and privacy libertarians when there is the barest hint of regulating the techbro oligarchy?

Are there issues that need addressing? Sure, and a democratic process will develop a compromise.

But the purist approach always feels like AstroTurf to me.
