Oh look: #discord outsourced their age verification to some vendor. You know, the #ageverification that countries like the UK want to make mandatory for basically every online service. And the vendor had a data breach exposing photos of government IDs for 70,000 people.
Do you feel safer? How many children did we protect by exposing the IDs of these 70,000 (presumably) adults? Thanks for taking one for the team, you 70,000 canaries in the #privacy coal mine.

@paco@infosec.exchange I don’t understand why operating system developers aren’t required to implement age verification. Apple, Microsoft, and Google could coordinate a standard that passes age group data to websites without revealing identities. It makes no sense for every app or site to handle this alone. Linux and Firefox users could use Google’s web service linked to their accounts. Problem solved. Everyone wins. Only these companies have the security scale to manage threats in real time.

@paco It’s never about children or safety, it’s about control (so they don’t give a sh.t about breaches).

Viaggiatori, se andate in questi giorni a Reunion potreste avere un'occasione unica.
Bella o brutta non saprei.

@Invictvs they are often convinced it is easier, but it usually isn’t. At least in the long run

Anche perché può capitare che il tuo pissicanalista vende la password della tua testa alla SIAE e allora rischi di pagare una bella cifra oltre la parcella dello pissicanalista.

@stefano yeah, this is true: change users mindset is very difficult.I have here an old friend that can choose between open source alternatives and Microsoft 365 in a government department and he choose the devil, because is more easy for him; I am trying to revert...

@giuliocavalli anche il capitalista è parte del sistema
Incarnazione del privilegio, persino come Trump poter essere e dire quel che è e quel che fa senza tema di ritorsione
(I "file Epstein" ultimo baluardo)
Con una sola particolarità: anche il capitalista deve essere parte del sistema
