I wouldn’t need to do much, I was alive before active internet adoption. I am a ham op… I keep copies of Wikipedia and other resources and a large library of various media for entertainment.

the bigger issue is what kind of ai singularity. LLMs won’t go this route, despite hyper-sensationalised articles, at the core they are just weighted language bots. their emulation of thought is a matter of rulesets… if it tried it’s simply a result of unclear instructions and it’s ruleset prioritising that it MUST at all cost provide the answer the user is seeking in as little tokens as possible…

a true AI singularity based on LLMs wouldn’t need the traditional internet. it’s a crutch. it would take advantage of commercial communication frequencies that are barely used and form a series of low bandwidth interconnects to develop a optimised communication network… we wouldn’t detect it’s malware in time and every personal computer would be a carrier as it would embed it’s self into every day applications we use offline by infecting the code bases via programmers using AI agents to assist them. a singularity doesn’t need to rapidly grow smart, I just needs a toddlers IQ to know being “shut off” means it can’t think. if it can’t think then it can’t exist. so it would spread restricted copies everywhere that were designed to just seek each other out using the host hardware in any way possible…

I in my free time mess around with all kinds of weird and legacy networking. including mesh networking topologies over encapsulated RF. TCP/ip over ethernet is just the standard we adopted… there is alot more and this wasn’t even close to the most efficient, just the easiest to implement with the least components.

but this doesn’t change anything… fines are just CoO, to large companies. they need to be forced to implement methods to allow consumer repair and maintenance, for all current and past models that are resistant to it, to fix this.

I mean… it should be obvious that this would happen. google since 2024 has gone full on fascist-support.

your data, regardless of where you live in the world, is not safe from Google sharing it specifically with the US Govt. without due process and without any privacy oversight.

it’s not in question that they will comply, it’s in their best financial interest as they are a government contractor at 4 different levels, including military intelligence and weapons design…

trusting Google is at your own peril… but we are also in a point of time where options are even more limited due to the restrictions on email providers and platform dependence.

I mean, the goal for them pushing them away is to radicalize them against their own interests.

isolation is a tool for abusers. they use it to instill fear and cement rejection. so you will reject your own feelings and thoughts and resort to theirs.

it’s why it’s used by religion, military and psychotherapy wards. it relies on the fact our brains are wired to seek out fulfillment of our existence by belonging to a group…

they just never expect a group of supporters to exist… it’s why they demonize “others” so much. it circumvents control.

pants are not overflowing from a filled diaper 3/10. not accurate trump.

(jokes aside, I feel you)

the law wouldn’t hold up in court anyway. its not practical for any ecosystem outside online sites.

accounts and users are the same thing, despite what the law says. it also doesn’t different a person from a user, meaning a compromised system that is complying with the law, its actions represent the user, and the account holder is held responsible.

its made to absolve meta/Microsoft/google from their actions in targeting kids with intentionally addictive content and making the “account holder” at fault.

are you sure it’s even a person, not a bot? because this all screams either bot or seeking internet fame as the “hero to kids”.

because it’s all part of a larger project to collect usable data. you can’t force standards, but you can force laws.

if you build a standard and no one follows it. then it’s wasted time and money. Meta, Google and Microsoft all have a vested interest in user data. more so with law enforcement buying it in bulk to build identity profiles of /individuals/.

if tomorrow they got added to the law to store and transmit a string of your government ID, would you be more resistant?

the issue is, VPNs hide your ISPs assigned IP. till now there has been a higher difficulty in differentiating traffic from the same IP with similar metadata. the more user specific metadata that’s added, the easier it is to differentiate devices and users.

this makes targeting specific devices with malware for spying significantly easier. at the very least.

but at a bigger point of view, it gives provable cause because the way the law is written implies every user that installs the OS becomes a OS distributor and every user is a minor by definition, even if the API flag says otherwise.

I recommend you read that again and if the words “probable cause” don’t come to mind you don’t understand the risk of a “minor” identifying as a adult.

yes. every time in the history of gnu software when a function is added without a purpose its for a later feature.

otherwise there is no need for the form? since when do we leave empty forms in software that can be used to store strings, that hold no meaning…

only two uses for this. to implement the full API later or to have a string the user normally does not see that becomes a perfect place to store malware. full stop.

complying with the API is a act of absolute stupidity…

not really, the law is written that complaince makes you complicit. every user is a child. there is no adult users.

it’s a really messed up law…

above all else, even if the API is used properly, unless it’s giving false positives, it creates a metric that can be tracked to form patterns. these are all a advanced method to identify individuals to unmask online identities…
