okay, put it this way: if people had told you, upfront, that in order to use this chat thing you'd never touched before, you had to send them a copy of your passport and let them fucking scan your face and use their spyware to try to guess your age

@Cheeseness I've already had the "they already do this here in the uk, its fine if you're not using it for porn" so
@Cheeseness I mean, people didn't even leave the nazi bar when there was an identical alternative, because it wasn't fashionable yet. I am not optimistic that they'll resist this bullshit

you fucking wouldn't have. No you wouldn't. You've just chosen to refuse to look at what they've fucking done to you
@sinvega Not only would I not have, I'd have tried to send them off as aggressively as possible.

@sinvega Ah, so they're not doing the age verification thing, but are continuing to use Discord? I guess I can understand people doing that - if that's not also accompanied by seeking alternatives/actively reducing dependency on Discord, though...

@mini esto! Pero no pienso que hay una versión en español
Here Comes Niko! on Steam
Here Comes Niko! is the cozy 3D platformer for tired people! You play as Niko traveling across scenic islands. Make new friends, catch fish, solve puzzles, snag bugs, and more! Oh, Did I mention your boss is a frog?

@sinvega I think it's more about switching costs than boiling frogs. There needs to be a consumer education approach to switching costs, that emphasizes that an effective strategy against switching costs and similar traps is 99% prevention. The questions that must be asked early on are questions of what they can do, not what they may do. What their "privacy policy" currently says is irrelevant, as are current laws. The question is what technical capabilities exist for abusing your trust and invading your privacy. -

@sinvega "The kind of information you should never share on the internet."
It hasn't magically become ok to share on the internet just because someone new is asking.
