2003: children shouldn't tell their age, name, or personal information to anyone on the internet for their safety
-
@TCatInReality That third / final bullet point was a reference to and old stupid pun about the dotcom business models, from the early 2000s, going like this:
- build something stupid
- make lots of losses & debts
- ... (a "minor" detail we don't worry about now)
- Profit!Got it.
Of course, now we see that the old dotcom model was all about using disruption to grab market share and pushing out IRL competitors. Then, enshittify away until profits spike.

yall im starting to think that the pedoligarchy might be trying to make kids less safe

@imbl Yeah, with Jeffrey dead, how are the elites to target their prey that does not identify itself properly online?

@imbl nah, no way, impossible. Are you saying the rich assholes who were friends with the pedophile who had a pedophilia island don't have the most bestest and purest intentions? -

@imbl What changed? In 2003 the olds thought internet chat venues were run by gay hackers and in 2026 they know it's now run by the Epstein class and which one do they trust more?

Soon, they'll need to provide nudes to keep themselves safe from "sexual predators" -

@imbl Every time I see some politician rage against people using pseudonyms on the Internet, I find it very funny because the reason I use one in the first place is that I was taught it was best practice when I was a child. I literally came up with my pseudo when I was around twelve years old and I had to register on Nintendo’s website.

Yeah, things change.
In 2003, platforms were largely benign and parents needed to watch out for individuals.
In 2026, the platforms have optimised their algorithms to bring danger to children so government needs to regulate the platforms' access
But the government is owned by the pedoelites.

@imbl the pedoligarchy

@oldoldcojote @TCatInReality @imbl I would stop calling these fucks "elite". They love that. "Pedophiles" is perfectly suffficient and more correct.

@imbl the thing is, not only children will have to identify themselves, but everyone.
How else would they know otherwise you're a child or not. -

@imbl Been having this same exact thought myself, honestly. Very "the call is coming from inside the house" energy. Is why they're building back doors into everything, and want to know who's using what, where, how, and why.
Is scary.
Also, "pedoligarchy." 100% taking that and redistributing it to the people, comrade.

@imbl@social.treehouse.systems ye. because it was never about protection, but control. the control of women's bodies; the control children's bodies under the guise of safety allows them to be exploited by men legally and morally.

Wrong.
2026: All people (including children) should tell name, adress, age, gender and other personal informations to big data companies allegedly for the safety of minors.
