Age verification is not en never was about protecting children. It's about mass surveillance.

"Once a user verifies their identity with Persona, the software performs 269 distinct verification checks and scours the internet and government sources for potential matches, such as by matching your face to politically exposed persons (PEPs), and generating risk and similarity scores for each individual. IP addresses, browser fingerprints, device fingerprints, government ID numbers, phone numbers, names, faces, and even selfie backgrounds are analyzed and retained for up to three years."

Meta Plans to Add Technology to Its Smart Glasses

“Five years ago, Facebook shut down the facial recognition system for tagging people in photos on its social network, saying it wanted to find “the right balance” for a technology that raises and legal concerns.

Now it wants to bring facial recognition back.
…
Meta’s internal memo said the political tumult in the United States was good timing for the feature’s release.

“We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns,” according to the document from Meta’s Reality Labs, which works on hardware including smart glasses.”

I really don't know why it is I've lost motivation this badly to nerd on my own projects due to AI.

All the things I like coding on for my own purposes are things nobody would want to pay me for. Economically, all of it has been quite worthless. Likewise, I never even *wanted* to become a professional artist or musician, I just enjoyed creating things.

So it seems completely bizarre to me that I still strongly feel like AI has made it all pointless.

뭔가 다들 에바에 대해 너무 진지한데, 이미 에바는 98년도에 마작게임도 내고 강철의 걸프렌드라는 외전도 있고 이카리 신지 육성계획같은 뻘스러운 물건도 냈고 뭐 다들 아시다시피 빠찡코도 있는데 안노가 뭘 하건 뭘 심각하게 받아들일 것이 있는가 싶으다.

Someone verified their identity with LinkedIn - similar to other verification processes.
fans, read this. This is your homework.

Not stated in this report:
YOU must be aware that you are dragging your friends into the pit. Because your "network" is part of their data.

Just like your contacts are shared with Whatsapp and %friend happened to be in your contacts. It's now somewhere else. This is your responsibility.

Auch in diesem Jahr wollen wir am 31. März zum Trans Day of Visibility auf die Straße gehen!
Demonstriert deshalb mit uns unter dem Motto "Ohne Register, viel lieber sichtbar" ab 18 Uhr, der Beginn ist am Platz der deutschen Einheit.

Man könnte meinen, wir als trans Menschen wären ja schon so sichtbar wie nie in der Gesellschaft.
Doch der Schein trügt. Sichtbar sind vorallem transfeindliche Stereotype, Falschinformationen und sehr viel Hass und Gewalt.

Der Hintergrund der Grafik ist ein schwarz-weiß Foto vom Dortmunder U. im Vordergrund befindet sich oben die Trans-Flagge und das Motto "ohne Register, viel lieber sichtbar". Unten steht auf den Farben der non-binary Flagge: "Demo zum Trans Day of Visibility 2026 - 31. März 2026 - Platz der Deutschen Einheit Dortmund". Unten rechts in der Ecke ist das Logo von TransAction Dortmund
