A Boring Dystopia

"Well intentioned" my pasty white ass it's well intentioned, they know exactly what they are doing. Fuck these people

In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud

This is not "well-intentioned", rather, it intentionally has a facade of good intentions. This is an attempt by a state power to further cement their rule by restricting access to information.

Everyone wants to destroy the open Internet. Our own reichfuhrer has introduced C-11 which sticks the governments fingers directly into websites, and C-18 which ends the universal concept that hyperlinking is free of charge.

At the rate we're going, the free and open internet will be a memory I tell my great grandkids about, like using the analog telephone to get on the internet at 9600bps on a computer with much less computing power than my wristwatch.

France is taking the lead for the fascism in the World.
We dont have the capital but we have ideas.

Right now in the EU :

EU’s Draconian Social Media Censorship Laws Are Now Officially Enforceable

EU capitals want media law carve-out to spy on reporters

Right now in France :

Criminalization of encryption : the 8 december case

We have had access to certain elements of the file confirming this information. We have chosen to make them visible in order to denounce the criminalisation of digital practices at the heart of our day-to-day work and the manipulation to which they are subjected in this affair.

Mixing fantasies, bad faith and technical incompetence, a police story has been constructed around the (good) digital practices of the accused, with the aim of staging a “clandestine” or “conspirative” group.

The elements of the investigation that have been communicated to us are staggering. Here are just some of the practices that are being misused as evidence of terrorist behavior6: – the use of applications such as Signal, WhatsApp, Wire, Silence or ProtonMail to encrypt communications ; – using Internet privacy tools such as VPN, Tor or Tails7 ; – protecting ourselves against the exploitation of our personal data by GAFAM via services such as /e/OS, LineageOS, F-Droid ; – encrypting digital media; – organizing and participating in digital hygiene training sessions; – simple possession of technical documentation.

France grants police power to spy on citizens through phones

Just Internet? Browsers are client side software. It's a danger to open computing in general.

I'll just keep living in my third world country where they are too stupid or poor to enact these dystopian policies
