This law affects everyone, especially people in the EU and is an attempt to implement ID verification on: Video-sharing platforms, #AI chatbots, AI companions, games, software app stores and operating systems. https://mastodon.social/@madeindex/117285674482286098

    The European fediverse may be at risk, but the rest of the fediverse will tell them to go fuck right off.

    In that case, the fediverse better learn to run on tor onion domains and i2p eepsites for federation and access.

    I have been saying for a long time that the CuckNet was going to go insane, and the only ways to get real information would be on I2P and Tor anyway.

    We must remember that EU is a democracy (not): therefore this is what the majority of EU citizens want.

    Rule by the lowest common denominator? Democracy without checks and balances is mob rule, minority discrimination, and decisions forced by the least informed.

    The fact you're posting this means it’ll pass.
    If European users logged off, and directly acted on these neo Nazis, this law would have never even been drafted.
    But since Europe is going Axis again, I don't think they care about the net.
