A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Pretty sure this is the direction big tech and government want to take things. Mandatory ID to use your operating system, perfect tracking and as targeting, no anonymity, censorship, consolidated monopolies, etc. Pornhub won't be the only website requiring verified OS and ID. They want to build a locked down, surveiled internet, and moral panics are the way they're doing it.
