@markus @lain I think it’s short for Wank.

@aral @lain@lain.com The very thing we have to collectively fight against: identity theft and #discrimination in public spaces masquerading as “human verification” and wannabe social networks.

In designing my own #cloud services I quickly came to a simple yet powerful conclusion: if you model the infrastructure around personal freedom and digital sovereignty you don’t even need ID verification. You cryptographically own your identity, period.

@clock @aral @lain Personally I'm a big supporter of These kinds of hacks Because they delegitimize the entire system

[clock@net.miaumuh.ch]

@kittylyst @aral @lain Correct.

[lillyherself@mastodon.social]

@aral Assuming W is only for EU citizens, how else could they verify your citizenship?
(I still would not do this)

[clock@net.miaumuh.ch]

@fluffykittycat @aral @lain @fluffykittycat @aral @lain I won't say "Personally I'm a big supporter of These kinds of hacks Because they delegitimize the entire system" because we don't have free speech in the Czech regime and I am afraid they could persecute me for exercising my basic human and constitutional right to freedom of speech, claiming I publicly support crimes.

I also feel

e x t r e m e l y s t r o n g c o n t e m p t

towards the Czech regime when the situation about free speech is like this here.

to any dumbass reporting this post, a simple google search would have spared you the effort of reporting what's a known meme on the polish side of internet

Kamil Tumulec – Wikipedia, wolna encyklopedia

(pl.wikipedia.org)

go care about actual doxxing that happens on your very own cesspool instead of getting mad over a photo of an ID that might as well never really exist

@LillyHerself @aral Isn't that xenofobic nationalistic discrimination?

For some reason, when applying for beta access, they ask you for your residency (only country). You don't need that fuck that shit.

@vonKordke @aral @lain@lain.com "no one had a problem with (thing everyone had a problem with and rightfully called out facebook for doing)"

[hsza@social.tudbut.de]

@vonKordke @aral @lain a “dox yourself” requirement is never a good thing, fuck off

[vonkordke@social.vivaldi.net]

@hsza @lain @aral
Why are you aggressive? If the scanning is offline (proven by audits), and the app provides just the signal of you being an adult, nothing more, I see no reason not to use it. That's the only way this can be implemented while maintaining privacy.

[mjdxp@labyrinth.zone]

@aral @lain every single online service i can think of has said that your identification materials ever leave your device, then was later exposed for just completely lying about it because it turns out you can just lie about that and face zero consequences. this one's almost certainly no different.

[hsza@social.tudbut.de]

@vonKordke @lain @aral This should not be implemented at all

there’s no excuse for fascist age discrimination tooling that denies anonymity to every user. “privacy” my ass, the core premise is unacceptable

[yassie_j@labyrinth.zone]

@aral@mastodon.ar.al privacy concerns aside, there is no way that anyone is going to sincerely say "follow me on W"

[vonkordke@social.vivaldi.net]

@hsza @lain @aral
You can still be anonymous with that solution, why do you find it hard to grasp? It's really simple. It just has to be verified by the people.
Social media is bad for kids and something must be done.

@aral@mastodon.ar.al @lain@lain.com also loving the "you can use your full real name or just appear as 'a person'" aspect, very awesome stuff

also love calling your shit decentralised because it uses atproto. good job everyone
