Context: UK passed this online safety act thing a few days ago (source) where you have to verify your age on sites that might contain nsfw content and the checks involve stuff like uploading a photo of your face, ID or even your passport. if anything it’s just making people more unsafe (look what happened with the Tea app which required similar verification (source)). ain’t gonna dox myself to the government/companies and it’s easily circumvented using TOR lol. fuck da system🤘
I just hope they won’t move toward the “oh, you use encryption? Let’s see how it protects you from solitary in jail” step too fast.
And no, I’m not sarcastic, I’m worried.
