Piracy will soon become the only way to consume a lot of content without verifying your identity. The internet is being destroyed in a multi-pronged approach

A dubbed version of something is basically a warped parody of it. But dub fans get really defensive about it.

It’s infuriating because Reddit is still a good source of information on really specific topics. Time to make a throwaway account I guess.

Healthline does something similar if you reject cookies. They redirect you to a dedicated ‘fuck you’ page.

KFC locations serve undercooked chicken where I live. I avoid them.

I hate when people validate the core idea of needing to protect children through age verification. Timmy lying about being over 18 to look at some boobs is not a problem that needs to be resolved. It’s like requiring everyone to wear body cameras specifically to prevent store clerks from being rude to you.

The people who can verify their identity will be less willing to share their opinion on certain topics once they know they aren’t anonymous. I’m certain this is one of the goals. The reactions to political news, world events, law proposals and atrocities will be far more muted and it will be easier to control the population.

As an internet user, you have to accept that at some point you’ll lose access to online services you’ve been using if you don’t become the kind of mouthbreather who verifies their identity.

I think there is an account setting to discourage results based on your location. But my google is set to English, that probably also helps

This was rough to read. It just reaffirms my stance against the death penalty.
