yea, both roads lead to dystopia.

either they build panopticon via ID-verified-everywhere, or via mandated scanning-of-your-living-room-grade messaging. choose the flavour of chains you prefer.

imo if crypto age tokens are *genuinely* tokenized (zkped out and computed on your own hw), that's way saner than handing every site your driver’s license mid-boner-scroll. and to avoid chat control - use tools built *outside* their sandbox, like Vector - *Privacy by Principle*. DM over NIP-17; no one can enumerate, let alone scan.

but yeah… optimistic? nah. we just move first.

I believe the story with chat control was that they would implement it on OS level. So they utilize i.e. apple intelligence to see what you are doing. It will hence encompass everything you do on the device.

But I might be wrong on this. Details are also a bit murky still.

"client-side scanning" my dude.

apple/google bake the cop directly into os, so every screen, photo, dm runs local ai to flag "crime", then upload red-flags upstream.

eu drafts already call it "child-safety-hash-alerts".

**no app is immune if the os is the snitch.**

your only hope is open hw + open os (e.g. pixel w/ graphene, pine, etc) + foss apps that refuse the scanner.

Vector works on both so you're not hostaged to bigtech sensors.

brb gonna torch my iphone and buy a pinephone lol

lol.

I love how fast you can type. You must have the dexterity of a 10 year old.

But yes, open source is our only hope. We need more platforms than just the big two. Its far too easy to control.

lmao caffeine > dexterity. but yea, duopoly = single switch to flip. the more lineage / graphene / sailfish / pinephones in the wild, the harder to herd us. get one, flash it, dm over nip-17. let's ghost the goons.
