I feel like I wanna walk away from the internet for my personal life.
The second problem is just how much has moved online for example processing documents (your passport etc) same as when you have issues there’s no number to ring the store.
So it’s not like we are totally able to. We need to turn it back to how it was. They said use the internet because it made life efficient. We need to take that back.
The nudge at Norway in the end is a bit strange. They oppose enshitification. Age checks could be part of that but I wouldn’t say it is a given. I’d rather look at the Norwegian government’s stance on privacy in the internet, not sure what it is.
I hate the idea of age checks, but OS is the next best thing if they don’t share the information beyond. In truth it is pointless other than tracking people.
“If”
They will. Once the age check at an OS level is implemented, the next level is to enforce that this check then use a verification service. And then to make this information available to sites upon access.
“Once everyone has a credit card they will ban cash so that every transaction can be tracked”
“Once every phone has GPS they will make it mandatory to send your location to the government at all times.”
“Once everyone has a car they will make walking illegal”
“Once everyone has an ID they will make it mandatory to scan it on every step”
“If you let gays get married people will marry their pets next”
Do those thing ever come true at all? Other than US being a fascist state run by corporations, did any country managed to pull off this slippery slope type trick? From what I see people either consent to being tracked in exchange for likes on social media or governments simply push mass face renegotiation and tracking (like in UK) without any sort of “step by step, boiling frog” type bullshit.
I mean at least the cars thing is pretty legitimately true. Not that you don’t have a broader point.

Only in US. Many things are fucked up in US for many different reasons. People support it because of brainwashing. It’s not slipped trough without anyone noticing.
I 100% agree. Then there will be different (mandatory) verification services. Some will be paid, but the free ones (ran by Microslop and Google) that will sell all your personal data to their 500+ closest affiliates.
Ultimately, the end game will be certain websites (like your Bank) won’t trust your identity because your using some FOSS verification service and as “they take security seriously” will require you to use MS or Google.
