Age Verification Is Coming for the Whole Internet

Ok, do any good mesh networks exist today that people actually use? I'd love to invest in some hardware and join some form of this.
Well, the internet is a mesh network and is pretty good.

Got this response from one of the developers:
Looks like a routing issue, it works when navigated to from the index page without a full reload.
Its a server configuration issue. If you have a SPA even server side frameworks that uses native paths you need to configure the server to send all requests to the main application. You'll find documentation of how to do this in the setup for every framework I've run into.

Age Verification Is Coming for the Whole Internet
Around the world, more users are being asked the same question: Can we see some ID? That has been a bit of a disaster so far in the U.K., writes John Herrman.

That's a very different story than requiring I'd for some websites
No it isn't. Either traffic is allowed to flow freely or it isn't. Once you start down the "isn't" path there's not much that can be done to get around the fact that a few people control a huge chunk of the infrastructure.

It's the name of the invisible Internet protocol.
It's pretty much like tor, but more geared towards services hosted as hidden services. It doesn't have a proper way to hide you if you want to visit "normal" websites.
But it has its own torrents and stuff
Oh neat!

You are arguing a different point here than you were above and I’m not going to entertain the misdirect.
Perhaps you misunderstood my point in your haste to make a complicated problem seem simple but no, my argument has not changed.

Last time I checked, the p!rate bay still exists. In fact there are many of them. Because the website itself is open source. The same could be done with any other site. If one gets taken down, two more pop up in it's place.
While true, most sites do not have the fame of the pirate bay and will not see anywhere near the same number of fans hosting remakes, even if the source is available.

I played through Black for the first time this year on my old Fat with a sata hdd. How great was that game? It felt a generation ahead of its time, especially using the higher res display mode and the component video.
If you don't already have a good controller solution, I highly recommend the Brook Wingman. I'm using mine with a Dual Shock 3 for the analog buttons (gotta have them for Ace Combat), but it supports so many controllers.

Really? I haven't really used Tor but I can't find anything about that. What happened?
The Naval Research Laboratory invented onion routing and open sourced the code.

Great question!
First, that the definition of content that is considered "adult" doesn't necessarily mean every forum qualifies. Privacyguides.org likely would not. A car forum likely would not. Facebook must comply because links shared can be "harmful" anywhere on the platform. The fractured nature of Web 1.0 is a feature now, not a bug.
Second, that proxy measures can reasonably work for forums with smart admins. If I register with an email I can show has been in use since 2007, some forums are willing to accept that as enough evidence. I saw an article somewhere I can't find right now that someone was accepting 5 year old tickets to a concert or something that was an 18+ event. Typically age verification laws are focused on large Web 2.0 platforms and can include lower cost, lower threshold options for sites with a very small number of users.
Finally, that it might simply take a longer time for anyone to care or even notice some smaller sites. By the time someone comes calling, policies might have already changed several times and reasonable exemptions now mean no work is needed.

if it were so easy. you can post links to the privacyguides forum too. but the bigger problem is that anyone can post anything. if they don't do age verification, they are liable for any forbidden content that slipped through. that can also be used as a form of blackmailing.

If it comes to Lemmy, I quit. I'll go touch grass all day, I don't mind.
I don't see how anybody could come for lemmy. I feel this just attacks centralized services

I bought the ps2 slim second hand. Then I personally did the modchip myself. Learning some more advanced soldering skills in the process. Now I'm able to play any game I want. But since it's slim version I can't use a hdd.
However, I can use samba share. Or usb (but could be slower, and bigger files needs to be split due to fat32 file size limitations). So I setup my samba share on my Linux server. And use OPL to load the games from my samba share on my ps2 using ethernet. It's awesome.
Furthermore, I use a open source tool called OPL-Pc-Tools to manage my collection of games on my smb share. This tool also works great under Linux.
I'm trying to force 1080p output in OPL without success yet, but apart from that it's all working now. Took me 1 week from soldering to Samba games ahah. As a bonus I now also have an advance JBC soldering station with multiple tips.

I don't know what they are thinking, but i protect my ID data more than i protect my credit card data.

Oh, you can still get storage on the slim. I just did Gusse's IDE resurrector on mine, but there is a better version out there now with much larger SD card support.

If by "foreign adversary" you mean the US, that might even be true.
I assumed they meant aliens.

Now that you mention it, I've had mixed results forcing resolutions through OPL. But the factory ones you do with button combos always work great.

Sure you can post links, but that's not the topic of the forum, and it's not specific the a xountrybor market, which is also a factor right now with the UK law, so it doesnt ping as a problem worth dealing with.

It’s about the information vacuum. Now every service will get your ID or photo, giving them both age and a whole sort of other metrics to build a profile on you. And yes, Lemmy.ca doesn’t know that about me.
Yeah so what could possibly go wrong when every site you want to use has your ID and passport etc.

Who let the Trumper in?
If Hating pedos = Trumper then consider me one. Mind your p3do self I'm not even from the USA

No one needs the internet outside of work. The moment I'm forced to show my ID or get my face scanned, I'm done for good.
