Who will destroy the internetAI? How will they do it? There is not much time left. He who does it will go down in history as the most important figure of all time.

it's just time to start moving to a private web with invite only userbase

It will be /pol/ that does it in once the information feed is piped into its "learning".

Digital ID and e-safety reform is coming not just to the UK but Australia, Utah, Texas and soon to be more US states, this will tie all of your online activity, every app you download, every message you send, every action you perform on a game and much more, with your real identity for the NSA to analyse at any moment.
With Xbox, PlayStation, the App Store and Google Play store all set to require digital ID in the near future in addition to messaging platforms and with a 4chan ban looming for UK users It’s time we take serious measures preemptively to catalogue complicit platforms and prepare for alternatives. For those that plan to submit to the system this thread will be irrelevant. For those that don’t, read on.


The following is a list of currently known platforms that WILL be implementing (or have already implemented) some form of age verification/digital ID. It will be changed to reflect any new corporations that implement age verification:
Gaming services:
> Xbox live, PlayStation network, Steam, Rockstar online services
Search engines:
>Google, Bing
Social Media:
>TikTok, Facebook, Youtube, Reddit, Threads, X, Instagram, Snapchat, Discord, Tinder
Media:
>Netflix
App stores:
>Apple App Store, Google App Store
Other:
>Most porn websites, most AI platforms, 4chan for UK users

The following is a list of currently known alternatives that will NOT (or should not) require verification. It will be changed to add any new viable suggestions:

Search engines:
>Yandex (the Russian alternative to google), DuckDuckGo
Social media:
>VK otherwise known as vkontakte (Russian alternative to Facebook)
iOS App stores:
>Cydia, AltStore. You can also install third party apk files (Apps) without the App Store if jailbroken.
Android App Stores:
>A guide on how to install apk files (Apps) without Google play store can be found here https://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-install-apks-31494/
Media:
>All media stored offline will never require a digital ID to view or listen to. You are encouraged to store all videos, photos and music offline, and to keep physical copies of as much content as possible.
>Not all cloud based media platforms will require a digital ID, and some may or may not continue to operate as normal
Gaming services:
>Steam, or an earlier version of steam, can always be ran in offline mode
>All offline or privately hosted gaming will be unaffected in addition to servers that do not conform to regulations. This means single player games, privately hosted servers, LAN matches, and the few game servers that do not adapt to the legislation, will all continue to be playable without digital ID. A privately hosted Minecraft server, for example, would be playable by multiple users without digital ID regardless of any updates the developer introduced to try and implement age verification, since it is not reliant on a publicly hosted server, and this would apply to any other game. A physical copy of a game (like a disc) will always remain playable without any digital ID, since it is designed to be played offline, but you may or may not be able to connect to “online servers”.

>You are encouraged to only use locally hosted artificial intelligence models (LLMs) for the purpose of tracking prevention and privacy protection and to assume all chat logs with third party hosted AI (Grok, Siri, Gemini, ChatGPT) is compromised and stored in a database accessible by employees at any moment until further notice.
You may also choose to use a VPN to change your location to a country that has not yet implemented age restriction protocol in order to access websites (like 4chan), this practice is advised for good measure regardless. Websites also do exist that can connect you to services that would otherwise be blocked, also known as a html based proxy service, and are heavily encouraged if digital restrictions come to your country and prevent you from using a platform you enjoy and you find the process of an installed VPN too bothersome.

If you own a company or have high decision level making authority at a company, be aware that if you are complicit in the act of attempting to introduce dystopian age verification and digital tracking that you will most likely be boycotted or cancelled, or at the very least an attempt to cancel or replace your platform will take place. This will also apply to politicians internationally who attempt to introduce digital ID laws upon private technological conglomerates for the sake of implementing a national civilian tracking database environment. Those that are not complicit will be spared, and in fact will be praised heavily by comparison.

You are encouraged to only engage with compromised platforms in future if using a false identity, for no reason should you engage with a compromised platform legitimately or submit your real ID to a database controlled by a technology conglomerate unless you fully accept the risks that come with having all of your actions on that particular platform logged and tied to your ID.

>>520488606
Once a company requests your ID and you submit it you become compromised for that particular platform and for that reason it’s important to only engage with the digital ID system so much as reasonably necessary in government platforms only to avoid starvation or homelessness, since government agencies are subject to privacy breach laws to a higher degree than corporations generally are when a data breach occurs, and to separate the two concepts as much as possible. In ALL other instances, such as a private social media or gaming corporation requesting your identity in order to tie your activity to your identity and/or replicate your identity, you are heavily, HEAVILY encouraged to avoid doing so - or to seek an alternative.

Thanks. Who wants to be friends on vkontakte?
