Why can't people comment without their name being attached? Just spew your opinion on Reddit or Lemmy under a pseudonym.
For instance, my name isn't really Barney Piccolo. I could say anything I want, and my boss could never connect it to my real name.
Well, mine could, because I'm self-employed, but my boss fully agrees with my political positions.
"I don't have anything to hide" made it acceptable for social media apps to ask for a video of you holding your photo-id when adding username.
I am not even exagerating facebook apparently wants 3 selfies from certain angles in video format and autodetects fake-sounding usernames.
To hell with that shit.
Well, they're coming for anonymity as well. The UK identification laws could be used to collect data on theoretically anonymous social media accounts, as it applies to any website that could possibly show a child something "inappropriate", which iirc, includes not just porn but what they consider support for whatever they define as terrorism.
GOP reps have been pushing for similar ID/age checks for a while.
Nice try, but I know exactly where Piccolo resides and it's next to the hyperbolic time chamber! I have Dende fire your ass!

Imagine living in a country with free speech
To be fair, I got permabanned on reddit for saying Charlie Kuck deserved what happened to him.
