These state required ID walls to use online services will eventually be required to access anything the internet.

Also I think this is the reason M$ and Apple offer (or forced in the case of M$) you to use an online account to log into your local machine. I believe this will be used in the future to allow people to legally use the internet or not at all. Would a world like this mean using Linux makes you an outlaw in certain areas?

Maybe this will kill IoT. Alternately, I will become a smart fridge.

No, corporations can always do whatever they want. And they won't allow a smart fridge to have a bank account or health care

Maybe not the worst idea if we're looking to claim back what's been lost to LLM bots

I’m not sure how a surveillance state is better? That wouldn’t regain what we are losing to LLM bots, it would be yet another thing we’re losing.

>>glouwb+V6
Nah, the only platforms left will sell the right to post ads into your feed and sell access to the data to the LLM companies
