And look at the money.

The reasoning for this is to eventually lock the internet down completely to put up fences and paywalls everywhere to every single site so that even if you pay for the privilege of using the internet, you will have to pay more money to actually use the internet.

It is all about controlling you and taking every single penny they possibly can out of your pocket.

All of the tracking, all of the identity verification, all of the invasive watching every single thing you do on your computer and your phone, everywhere, all of the time always, is all about milking you for every single penny they can.

Even though they are insanely rich, beyond the imagination of any human being that has ever lived in the hundreds of thousands of years of humanity's existence on this planet they still don't have enough money and they will still never be satisfied with how much money they have.

The fact that there are free websites where people can congregate and communicate and have fun with each other without paying them for the privilege galls them.

It grinds their heart and soul the way watching a dog get shot in the head at the end of old yeller does to a normal person.

These people are evil, and we need to stop them.

When it comes down to it, we may have to rise up and slay them.

“Oh look, we just banned all the opposition party from using any online services at all because (checks notes) campaigning against us is hate speech “

All you EU chatters going on about us in the US sitting on our asses and not doing anything about what’s going are gonna eat your fucking words if you don’t show us how it’s done, and quick, because they’re coming for you HARD right now

That's when the databases become huge targets and the government officials get their everything leaked online. They voted against privacy, they can enjoy the stones they threw in the glass house they forced themselves into.

The only time the phrase "do it for the kids" is actually valuable is when it's someone asking you to grill hot dogs at a picnic.

If it's a politician saying it, "do it for the kids" is slang for "bend over and take it up the ass because otherwise you're a bad person".

Can't raise kids? Don't have kids. You're not ready yet.

Parenting used to be easy so parents didn't need any help but now it's just too difficult and government needs to help.

Ahh ok, so that means they're for parental leave, and free daycare/preschool, right?

And surely they'll do something to lower the maternal and infant mortality rates, right?

And they'll definitely make sure that we're teaching proper sex education, and making contraceptives free and widely available in order to lower the rate of unwanted pregnancies, right?

Right??

"You got a loicense for that???"

Brilliant Govna

Parn? Pern? Purn?

I guess we'll never know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

enough for it to be consistently a violation of privacy and all the rest of the terrible things it does.

I'm sure he could probably figure out a VPN or a site that doesn't give a fuck about UK law, but chose to stir shit anyway.

You can assume anything you want, but that doesn't make it true. This guy wanted to stir the pot. I'll assume he just wants to bring attention to this dumb law.

People don’t need to file paperwork to change their name? They just start using a new one on legal documents?

Christian nationalists say that porn shouldn't exist while watching a lot of porn and they would get mad if someone took away their porn. They only want others to not watch porn.

Yeah. Except these “Christians” also love to rape children. It’s pure projection on their part.

The age old problem of "if you remove rights from criminals, you can just change the definition of crime to encompass the people you don't like"

Don't forget people of any color but white having any kind of fun. That's shameful, too!

GMod apparently works lol

In states that have started this requirement (at least in Virginia), they do have ID as an option, but the default is a face scan. I don’t think an ID is better. In fact, it’s even more personal information being exposed.

I don’t know the technical terms, but my internet provider sometimes routes my internet through Virginia, and even though I live in Wisconsin, I’m forced to adhere to Virginia law online because of it. It’s very annoying. I

I want to go full cyberpunk and get QR codes tattooed on my cheeks that will either crash the cameras or tell the recognition software that I’m a stegosaurus.

So the man with the most tattoos is just seeking attention?

Nah, we enjoy having our cold, dead, clammy government hands on your dick. We have to protect the children.
