More likely Vibe-hacking.

>I don't approve of x, so I'm happy that my liberties are being restricted You may not regret this, but your children will hate you for it.

If your face is being transmitted, the fact that it's being translated into "tokens" first is no more relevant than that it's being translated into bits first. Your image is being sent to a company that sells the information one way or another.

There isn't unlimited time to debate every point while our oligarchy rapes kids and starves the poor.

Assuming it's remotely true (and there's good reason for thinking it isn't), it still means the FBI director was negligent in their choice of personal email provider, that the email provider had incompetent security, and that the government's failure to either have an Internet Czar (the post exists) or to enforce high standards on Internet services are a threat to the security of the nation (since we already know malware can cross airgaps through negligence, the DoD has been hit that way a few times). The FBI director could have copied unknown quantities of malware onto government machines through lax standards, any of which could have delivered classified information over the Internet (we know this because it has also happened to the DoD).

In short, the existence of the hack is a minor concern relative to every single implication that hack has.

I had a Visio monitor. It was very well designed.

Wonder if Meta has Case's number on quick-dial?

Do try to make an effort.

Doesn't have to be a credit card. A class III user digital certificate requires a verification firm be certain of a person's identity through multiple proofs. If an age verification service issued such a certificate, but anonymised the name the certificate was issued to to the user's selected screen name, you now have a digital ID that proves your age and optionally can be used for encryption purposes to ensure your account is only reachable from devices you authorise.

This is from the Kurtzman school of film. Virtue signal, create woke garbage, and anyone who doesn't like it is ist. The purpose is demoralization, not money-making.

You sound like a naive, teamism-consumed person.

And those come with warnings, legal penalties on vendors who sell to known addicts or children, legal penalties for abusers, financial penalties to abusers, etc. There are cars which have their own breathalisers.

So, no, society has said that the responsibility is distributed. Which is correct.

It is possible to verify age to the same degree (or better) than any "age verification service" without any sort of privacy invasion.

A six digit UID is not one that could be remotely considered "old".
