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.
we do not have NSFW Alternative Instances
fedinsfw.app: Am I a joke to you?
And honestly, I get the impression that even most threadiverse users aren’t using peertube. The content creaters you know and love are on YouTube, and it’s a significant time investment to sus out which peertube creaters are interesting to watch. Plus I vaguely remember that the last time I tried using Peertube, the website(s) itself wasn’t great; I think it was a mix of bad performance and unfamiliar and possibly not-as-obvious-as-you’d-like UI.

When your password leaks:
→ Change your password
→ Problem solved
When your biometric data leaks:
→ You can't change your face
→ You can't change your fingerprints
→ The compromise is permanent
→ Your biometric data is in breach databases forever
This is why facial recognition for age verification is dangerous.

Daniel asks what #FreeSoftware #OpenSource could have been procured and developed with such sums and how you feel about when you see those numbers. He also fears this trend will continue.
@Thales_Curiosities @IzzyOnDroidOrg @IzzyOnDroid We are watching Google's plans and actions closely. Currently, a lot is still unclear.
Yes, these changes are worrying and Google may very well kill alternative app stores with this on most devices if they keep going the way they are but even if they do we will stick around to support degoogled devices and will keep fighting to be accessible as much as possible.
We hope people keep the pressure up by writing authorities: https://keepandroidopen.org/
