You didn't seem to understand that you are making my point. The claim from the FCC is a variation of "won't somebody think of the children" to wit "won't somebody think of the scam victims", but of course, as we both agree, this isn't about that at all. That is the whole point. Do they to keep up.

The US constitution wasn't ratified until 1788 so Adams and Washington would have been approximately 52 and 56, at a time when the average life expectancy was much lower. Most people would consider them to be old even by today's standards. I am less than a 5 years older than they were at the time, and I can 100% confirm that I am an old man.

Bullshit. Your post exposes your complete lack of understanding of this issue. Even if you argue that there is a conspiracy and disabling location services and setting your google account Web & App activity and Timeline to off doesn't really work, these things track a *phone*, not a person. It is possible to simply not tie your phone to any google account, or to get a regular non-smartphone device. You can also create an anonymous google account which gets tied to the phone number, not your ID *until* this requirement is enacted. Once that happens it will be impossible to create an anonymous google account that the government cannot tie back to a citizen. Same with FB and similar, as well as any other website or app that requires/uses a verified phone number. If you have any self-respect at all you will apologize to every person you ever misinformed about this issue. You ignorance is dangerous.
