No it starts from the assumption that they have to enforce this somehow, which then leads to the assumption that the data necessary to do so will not stay private or secure.
Both assumptions are rooted in very, very recent history. I suggest learning it before continuing.

Everybody in this thread seems to be missing the greased slope to a completely deanonymized internet in the hands of authoritarians that this is.
Like... have y'all missed the way that "think of the children" has been used to curtail *everybody's* freedom, *especially* in the last couple of years?

Sánchez: “You may have heard that Spain is alone. They’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed.
“We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.”

Distills everything the US public hates about its current leaders and ties its defeat to the survival of a deeply morally compromised state apparatus. All other judgements aside it's a work of art.

Cuba sent so many doctors in humanitarian missions amidst the worst of the COVID-19 crisis and this is how the world repays them. Heartbreaking.
The US machine applying the Gaza playbook into Cuba is a horrifying new chapter.

Americans haven't won a war since Korea, they should be used to it by now.
Return of the Cmo... @cmon... • 16m
I don't know if Americans are prepared to see us lose a war with Iran
Not sure how else to say this other than we didn’t win the Korean War

Calif. lawsuit accuses Meta of sending nude video from AI glasses to workers
An investigation by Swedish and Kenyan journalists prompted the lawsuit.
So this is fun or horrifying.
If you wear META's smartglasses, there's a significant chance that META subcontractors will be able to see everything you do through your glasses, and I mean everything.
That thing you do, that you hope no one knows you do, yeah META knows about that now.

Great story by @mmughees.bsky.social about the loss of jobs from the closures of museums.
I visited Perkins House in 2021 and learned about the first attempts at vaccinating people in Liverpool against smallpox. Important history that many people should know these days!

Hey, quick question: is gay marriage legal in Israel?
Not "does Israel recognize gay marriages?" Does Israel actually permit them to be performed in Israel or by Isreali civil servants?

tumblr post by user sapphling from August of 2023 reading: "sitting anti-kink posters down in front of a wrestling match and explaining kayfabe to them with the patience of a preschool teacher"
"You see that one? He's called the "heel." He looks mean and says a lot of scary things, but it's not real and he's actually very nice. When he says "I'm going to break you in half" you don't have to be scared because it's pretend. These two talked about this beforehand, and now they're playing pretend together. Can you think of any other situations that might be like this?
Then they have screenshotted tags left on their post by another user reading: "crying screaming and throwing up when you tell me the undertaker didn't REALLY die and come back to life all those times"
sapphling follows that with "no that part was real"

Surely this is not shocking, but Rogan had most of the big anti-trans scientists that my reporting found to be in the Epstein files on his podcast.
Krauss even tried to connect Epstein to Rogan at one point.

I do think “Graham Platner was a bartender who personally served some DC pundits and reporters and was known to them” is a pretty big part of the skeleton key to unlocking how he got so much cash and media attention so fast and why they’re so determined to stay all in on him now
