        And as soon as that happens, I'm out. I'd rather just opt out of the modern internet. I already have to deal with my information getting leaked from various different services at least once every couple years it seems. I can change a credit card or a password, I can't change my ID.

                        Maybe the whole corporate internet. Unless we're forced into aol style portals by the death of net neutrality i think most of the lemmy user base will be fine. Shout-out to /c/selfhosted for those looking to get ahead of the permission gate.

                              We have already done that. It's called Dreddit and not even major governments can stop it.

                                Problem is, this isn't about getting your age, it's about identifying you online.

                                  We're heading back to the dreams of the 90s with people running websites on non-standard ports and DNS (new rinky dink decentralized DNS?). Take a performance and usability hit for the return of a more decentralized Internet. Probably still more usable than the early internet with all the lessons learned and tools available to modern developers. We can also bring back the term: web master

                                    And they will know what you look like. And with some data extrapolation where you are, where you go, your searches, what you're into, your payment methods, where you live, your schedule, who you interact with, and the list goes on.

                                    This is one more data point for big brother to collect and share with the highest bidder, or to get leaked to people who do not have your best interests in mind.

                                      Dumbest possible response someone could’ve made. How have you made it to 50 without a handler?
