The Australian federal government is planning to de-anonymize the internet to introduce a social credit system to combat "online abuse" - police will have access to individuals' social media accounts, which will be linked to people's passports.
Will then then make it illegal for people to communicate with each other anonymously online? They might.
They may succeed at it.
Can the Chinese set up independent servers and communicate what they want with each other?
Will the{y} then make it illegal for people to communicate with each other anonymously online?
It is still possible to send encrypted messages or even hide data in high resolution pictures, but who does that?
If the Internet went down nothing would work. Not credit cards, not radio. Most of television would be down.
They also have databases of people's writing style.
Why I even think that they know who likes to use the word even, even.
China is getting BETTER not worse - for the typical citizen. We're getting worse, not better. It's an entirely different situation, isn't it?
Those bits will have licenses to operate.
Peon citizens will not.
People who complain about the tone and tenor and "misleading" or "hateful" posts on the internet, clearly never spent a moment on 90s Newsgroups.
We need to have Twitter, Spectrum, Gmail, etc. under the same kind of "Regulation".
Not sure if this is true or not, but if it is the best solution is for as many people as possible to simply not respond to the app. Force them to send cops out to your place to check on you.
"Oh, gee, I was asleep, didn't hear the alert. Oh well."
Drive the system right into the bog, forcing them to waste as many resources as possible. Bonus if some banks get robbed as a result of all the cops wasting time with this covid tyranny.
