It's ironic to see those same global elites who love partying with the likes of known & convicted child sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein now urging worldwide restrictions on E2E / VPN & promoting age, biometric, and identity verification online - all in the name of protecting children.
It’s also highly suspicious that so many of the world’s biggest countries are trying to implement this wider internet control at the same time.
Feels like a major push toward authoritarianism to me.
It's messed up how the people always have to fight to wrest any rights from those in power, and then fight even harder to keep them!
It may help authoritarianism, but the reason they are doing it is to make more money with more user data. For example, they will know for sure a person is over 18 when they hit a specific tracking pixel at a porn site that supports this. They can now feed them better tailored ads, even though he tried to be anonymous.
The side effect is that Palantirs "Daddy's Home" app can now better suggest when to initiate the drone strike on a family home, because it knows little Timmy is just 12 and someone over 34 just logged on.
