Just read the overview, even just the first two sentences? Is the brainrot real?

In Germany, the left is among the only parties opposing stuff like this, and they have very good arguments against it! The social democrats want to “protect the kids”. The CDU is strongly in favor because they think “Teenage Terrorists” are being radicalized online.

Even if you support this shit, 16 is an absolutely crazy high age. You can vote at 16 but your government thinks you are too stupid to use “social media” responsibly? This is pure stupidity. And to no surprise, the ID verification companies behind this are sponsored by Palantir. This is every fascists wet dream.

Politicians would never admit their wrongdoing.

If I can still access your profile an hour from now and it’s not deleted, you’re full of shit.

What? They are still there, but they and their ID verification companies have even more data to sell.

You will see for yourself soon enough that you will have to upload your ID or 3D scan your face if you live in one of those garbage countries. Those ID verification companies admit that they are only 95% accurate at estimating user age, which means that 5% of your population is now barred from accessing websites that they should have access to, which should be completely unacceptable in a normal world.

Have a tech question as a teenager? Good fucking luck trying to beat the reddit age verification. Want to refresh your knowledge of how to give first aid? Guess what, fuck you. Need help with school work? Guess what, it’s all on YouTube. Researching a sensitive topic? Age gated, restricted, banned.

If you give your little kids smartphones that’s your fucking problem, not mine!

They don’t have a copy of my passport and a video of me holding it. They also don’t have a 3D scan of my face, which is what all these age verification companies want from you. They literally use AI while you are filming yourself to 3D scan your face for the Palantir database.

I think you should make the first step here and upload a selfie video waving your ID around to prove that you are old enough to be on the fediverse/lemmy. Otherwise we must assume that you are under 16 and ban you from all instances.

Do they really? Doesn’t that really mess up client side prediction?

Nice, I hope they also find a way to stop the Kherson drone terror attacks with this effort

looks different on my system, I’m also missing symbols

It’s unreal engine, those specs are extremely optimistic

There’s significant overblocking, similar to how Australia banned women with small breasts from porn. But I guess that’s what people want nowdays, some are even vocal about censoring women who “dress like underage girls”, whatever that means. I’ve even seen people wanting to censor certain hairstyles, like pigtails “because that’s a little girls hairstyle”.

EU has already stated that it will force companies to use their ID verification system for 18+ content or they will be debanked.

This would work best in an atmosphere of tungsten hexafluoride, which is the heaviest gas in the world. It’s ~11 times heavier than air. The downside is that you would melt down to a brown sludge.

And they still make a ton of money because all the ads are also visible in the free streams.
