I should be enjoying my summer vacation now, instead i spent the last week doomscrolling about the internet ID situation and it's nothing but awful news after awful news with no silver lining in sight
Why can't they just LEAVE US THE FUCK ALONE?

Nothing bad ever happens either because corporations wouldn't like that

"Bad thing actually happen" means economic uncertainty, which means line go down, which is UNACCEPTABLE AND LITERAL HEADS WILL ROLL. Did you notice how the egg prices didn't go higher than people would actually pay? It was $8.17 at its peak, not $81.70. Manufactured. Crisis. There were enough eggs the whole time.

Ok but what about when something is good for corporations but bad for all of us?

"Good" things only feel good temporarily before returning to equilibrium. It will never be enough. Even "good" things only temporarily slow the bleed for insatiable greed. They will never celebrate their wins, only prowling for the next meal.

I'm explaining how even the things you perceive as some good are nothing

What you asked should be un-asked because the question is invalid.
>"what about when something is good for corporations but bad for all of us?"
There is no good or bad, just nothing.

time 4 homelab. download as much as you need/want from the webz now and store it on a NAS. periodically update with traffic routed through tor, or join a private tracker or some shit.

either way i truly think the solution here is just to go back to treating the internet like a bare-bones repository for information and medium for communication.
hoping we can get IRC back but i think we're so overrun with normies who can't find their downloads folder that most netizens will end up going with the herd of ID uploaders. sad!

the Web has been heading in that direction for a while. payment platforms have also started making big moves in that direction recently. i don't think it's possible to go back to the old ways. there are ways to circumvent these things, if you care.

what do you mean? i'm referring to visa/mastercard/paypal allegedly refusing legal adult games to be sold on Steam. if anything, crypto is a sure way around that kind of control.

crypto cannot in this climate of getrichquickbros be anything other than an investment or at best a store of value, and now that banks are being empowered to willy-nilly refuse to process payments, and absolutely no employer is paying out in crypto, the window has been closed for a full-fledged crypto economy separate from fiatland

Do they not even want us pacified? do they just hate us and want to hit us where it hurts?

i mean, things are getting worse on the Web/fiat side faster than things on the altnet/crypto side are improving... but they're still improving. the convenience definitely hasn't reached conventional method levels, but you could buy toilet paper on darket, with monero mined on a solar battery powered rig, if you really wanted to.
