    “We need to control the platforms, all the social platforms,” Kramer said.

    He proposed a system that would “stack, rank, the 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 of every person that expresses themselves online,” with speech privileges determined by that ranking.

    Based on that system, Kramer said authorities should “take control over what they are saying.”

      @gamingonlinux How do they defined "operating system"?

      You know DOS still exists 🙂

      And how old is "root" user?

          Das mit dem Alter ist auch nur ein Vorwand, der Schutz der Kinder ebenso. Man muss das dann machen, auf jedem PC, Smartphone, Tablet etc. (was ist mit älteren System, die dafür keine Updates mehr bekommen?) und damit wissen die genau, wer was macht. Palantir freut sich.

            @gamingonlinux how will this be possible in an open source operating system?

            The relevant code will easily be bypassed or disabled. Gotta love #FOSS

                @DazRunner @gamingonlinux It can't, but next thing will be that having an OS that does not follow the law will be illegal. Same thing will happen with client side scanning (mobile), it will not work on privacy messengers, so it will be pushed to the OS and whatever OS can't or won't do it will become illegal

                              Ich glaube, das muss nicht mal Faschismus sein. Es geht um die Kontrolle über die Menschen an sich. Egal welche Regierungsform. Und Kinder sind immer wieder ein guter Vorwand.

                                    @gamingonlinux speaking as a parent, I’ve decide that no company gets to know who is using my or my kids’ computers or what their age is.

                                    What are they going to do? Toss me in jail for ticking the checkbox that says “disable this really very important feature, you naughty user you” that every distribution will put in to get through some vague loophole that will inevitably sneak its way in to whatever chatgpt-generated specification the law ends up requiring?

                                    I mean yes, probably.
