Rozar’s Nolnah? It is forbidden.

What do we say?

MAKE… IT… SHITTY.

laughs in Invidious

Brother, I hope so.

I feel like this is something the autistic brain notices a lot, and may regular folks not so much.

What a small-balls thing to say.

The horror of acceptance for others. Oh my god, please make it stop. /s

A pedantic critique that offers nothing to the conversation

Well, I think you’re saying those are things that you can’t do. And thats fine, but a lot if poeple need to take ownership of what they can do and figure out how to cooperate appropriately to get some things done.

New leaders need to emerge thats true, but they will need support as well in various ways.

But all those people will all have to take ownership for making this stop and figure out how to fight back.

I get safety/security is a concern, but things are in a circumstance now where you will probably get fucked either way.

As long as everyone keeps waiting for someone else to do something real, youre all screwed.

Until people like you are thinking “It’s gonna have to be me” then the situation will not likely improve.

we have a situation where the president is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes

Of course he is, he benefitted from it. America ain’t coming back until the people take it back, and that’s gonna be done the hard way.

Yes. I have a hard no for participating willingly in expansion of mass surveillance, censorship and propaganda.

And that’s ultimately what this move supports. It was no surprise to find out all the shady aspects following the announcement, but I had already burned Discord out of my life the day they announced their genius idea.

Its my enshittification red line. I will quit your product without hesitation and find another way. I will never go back

Discord gets paid for user’s data and they just lost a ton of users. That’s why they are “cutting ties” with Persona.

I suspect its more of a temporary reaction and they will reframe this age-verification and the related data collection and try again later.

Yep. Its wasn’t even a question

The leopard of consequences is hungry for tech oligarch faces.

Eat, you majestic creature. And godspeed.

Because they dont have a single, fully-qualified penis amongst them all to use to convince anyone.

Sub-penis is the best they can threaten with.

Wooooowwwww. It’s being used for exactly what I said it would be~

I know a lot if us are not even surprised in the least, but i hope some of the head-in-the-sand naysayer motherfuckers wake up and learn something.

When they say the images wont leave your computer. Its because they converted it to facial geometry. They dont want the images because they take too much storage.

When they say they will delete it after processing, processing includes sending a copy to whoever else theyve agreed to share it with. Palantir, im sure here, maybe through an intermediary data broker.

I deleted my discord account immediately when the news of this face-check-age-check broke

Yep. Too late, i fucking deleted that shit without hesitation or regret.

I use it daily, but I’ve now deleted my account and will move on.

I dont put up with this shit.

Control the conversations in the digital third spaces. Crush ideas, punish those who are a threat to “authority”

Yeah I hear you. I just dont think the pressure is actually building on them for that rn.

People’s attention is on higher profile issues in that arena and it looks like those cases will go on and on without resolution.

Imma call it a 100% smokescreen for Discord, but absolutely you know the only possible reason they might ever care to do anything to deal with the problem (which this new measure does not)

Translation: we wont age verify you or collect the biometrics if we already have what we want through other channels (federated SSO, data sharing agreements)

Your facial geometry wont be needed if facebook already has it and your discord identity is linked to that one(through your permission or not)
