  • I’d say we’ve been at cyber war since 1995 if not earlier. In spite of social media and attempted censorship, the internet is still a very chaotic and ungovernable place. This IS where a lot of people go because they want to not be judged while they view weird fetish art or have non-heterosexual and/or transgender relationships, and as far as I’m concerned, the right to do so should be engraved in every legal system on the planet. Most people online seem to agree, hence the fediverse (Mastodon, kbin, etc.), so I assume true order isn’t coming to the internet any time soon.


  • Unfortunately, this is why we need Web³ (“NFT-based memberships” and login via crypto wallet) integration, even if it’s incredibly inconvenient to re-learn online transactions and yes, even if “fintech” is a giant financial bubble that will probably burst with horrible economic consequences. Built-in, standardized FOSS encryption is now the only way forward aside from (possibly) PayPal.

    What’s worse is that this makes Windows and Mac OS untrustable. Linux fares better but would need to implement best practice as only practice.

    Everything will need to be sandboxed like on smartphones now. Thanks a fucking lot, OpenAI.
