So, the EU Digital ID is threatening to kill alt Android and Linux phones, but this is also probably gonna screw over desktops too, because going by how it’s laid out by Mental Outlaw here, desktops could start being required to run Win11 with Pluton enforcement to comply with this, which would not only lock out Linux and BSD desktops, but also older desktops in general which can’t run Win11, and even older desktops which can run Win11 but are too old to support Pluton, meaning just like you have to buy a new Google or Apple phone to comply with this, you’d also have to buy a new Win11 desktop or laptop as well.
I honestly believe that the “think of the children” is just the cover for more control.
Its happening worldwide all at a similair time - it feels coordinated.
the epstein files proves that it’s coordinated and it’s happening because narratives like the gaza genocide and life in china are going more viral than the mainstream media; so they’re working at making sure that there are too few people accessing it to keep future crimes against humanity from going viral again and the man-o-sphere’s existence proves that it will work.
Which is really dumb on Europe’s part since their trying to regain digital sovereignty. All this digital ID bullshit is doing is forcing themselves back onto giant US tech monopolies
Not so much dumb as suspicious.
It 100% is, it always has been. We’ve had decades of overreaching legislation towards tech based on the false premise of protecting children.
