So you recognize stalking is bad… AND LET YOUR CITIZENS DO IT???

I don’t like them, but I think progress is more important.

You can’t just call things fake.

Money is the best thing to measure value.

Notice how I’m not even including emissions reduced by Google claiming parts of the market (so, for example, if Bing had 20% of search engine market share and generated 2X pollution, while Google had 80% and generated 8X pollution, Google taking over the whole market wouldn’t change total pollution output, because total pollution stays at 10X).

I’d propose the opposite: 20 years in prison for anyone who opposes AI research.

Maybe not really 20 years, but small cut of profits (percentage!) to fund AI developement

Envinronment.

Google is now able to generate 43% more value to the society (revenue) per unit of pollution. Their profits rose by 93% (market cap by 66%) adjusted to pollution.

Very good, considering how much Google’s revenue has risen over that time.

I don’t like GOS devs, they are not focused on usablity, but on security (which is completely valid, but it’s a shame that GOS is the most usable mobile OS), but holy based.

If you are disputing AI utility in coding: Recent Linux kernel versions fixed up to 3 times more CVEs in comparision to releases before AI. Also, much less of those CVEs are found in the newer versions, which means new kernel releases contain better code.

Nah, it would be insecure (still more secure than defaults and way too secure for most users)

Qwen 3.8 27B is very good at agentic work

Gcam is an android app, not AOSP. All androids have GMS.

No, your data is not the price, having proprietary code on your device is

You can fork it

Fairphone can’t meet graphene security standards.

Graphene isn’t also that much better than the alternatives (when it comes to things other than security).

They are not wrong, when it comes to their platform

They are not wrong tho

1 & 2: it would work the same as all other EU specific things. You don’t need to comply with GDPR for people outside EU, you wouldn’t need to verify users outside the EU.

3: I don’t know what you mean. It could be easy to modify spec of those certs to include names.

4 You don’t know how this proposition is supposed to work.

In short:

There’re officially approved apps (you can’t just create you implementation arbitrary, but if you implementation meets all standards, you can work to have it approved). Using those apps, your credentials are secured with one (or many, I don’t understand that part) of:

• Hardware secure element
• Software secure element
• External device
• Server HSM operated by the provider

Those apps must also use some defined encryption standards.

When you create your app, it needs to be approved by one of the member states.

The app can store all kinds of personal governmental things such as your ID, bank account number, drivers license, etc.

When a service wants to know whether you are 18 or more, you can give them your wallet. The wallet app will show who demands what informations and a reason they put in the request. You can approve or reject the request.

It doesn’t have to be tied to google or anyone other.

Yes, those apps won’t be libre, but (and you don’t need to agree with me) in my opinion this is better than letting people create any implementation they want.

GrapheneOS can create thier implementation, that relies on hardware security chip. Linux distros can create a joint implementation reliant on yubikeys and alternatives.

Also, alternatives must remain.

Do you know how the implementation proposed by EU works?

How would that be a better solution? It is more complicated, more expansive and I see no benefits with it, in comparision to what the EU proposes

Stop Killing Drinking: No ID & No Age Verification for buying beer.

We (as a society) recognize narcotics, such as alcohol, as bad, so we ban the children from taking them. We don’t burden the parents, because we recognize that there’re parents who won’t care.

Predatory online platforms are the same. If you don’t want to verify your identity, don’t use them.

If you are forced to be verified (but age verification is not the same as age declaration) without using those services, then it’s a valid compliant.

Nothing can match GOS when it comes to security.

You also don’t need that much security (before you get mad at me, check if you don’t have a desktop PC somewhere in your house).

Holy! Good thing i bought pixel 10a instead of waiting for 11a
