If everyone refuse to comply, and let their accounts dormant instead, I promise you the platforms themselves, with their immense budget and network of lobbyists, are going to fight these absurd laws to recover their users.

Make them fight for your rights.

I've often wondered it this has any bearing on the security of important accounts. I started naming those accounts with something other than my Email.

@Em0nM4stodon It is not so hard, because there are very few social media. The majority is obscene, unlawful, a-social, vindictive, addictive, harmful and commercial. You can do without and above all, the need for datacenters will drop significantly.

@Em0nM4stodon never use biological markers like finger print, iris scans, face scans or such. Once in the system, always in the system.
And IDs, passports etc can be stolen so easily. One might give them to the criminals right away for identity abuse. -
I agree with you.
But how, in plain English terms, do we convey this to people that don't care?
@jbjrkng @Em0nM4stodon "The system doesn't accept my ID."
You know, wrong lighting, bad camera, not enough flash, too much flash, not enough proprietary code in the camera software... or ID not American enough.
-
Those that don't comply will be the minority, and both politicians and companies count on that - they will be eventually coerced into complying by being shut out of vital tasks, and eventually deemed criminals for being unable to comply with legally mandated government paperwork.
@csolisr That's not how things went down on Discord. Why don't you stop demotivational concern trolling when you don't have anything constructive to offer?
-
@dsmasterson Not if you use a long, complexe, and unique password with a second factor of authentication. Which is something everyone should do for all their accounts.
@Em0nM4stodon @dsmasterson Doesn't help when Facebook's support chatbot just resets account credentials for anyone who asks..

@Em0nM4stodon I've had to warn that ALL my online accounts including this one might become irregularily updated if SIM card ID registration is imposed in the US. The FCC has posted essentially a request for comment on this.
I SHOULD be able to service this account either by wifi or by foreign data-only tourist SIMS, but if neither is possible I will walk away from the Internet rather than risk verifying everything I've ever written with ID

Because Discord was one single site with viable alternatives, so the market logic was still able to pressure them. This is an all-out attack on every single website at once, sponsored simultaneously by the government and the companies, and with actual criminal sanctions for non-compliance - boycotting will eventually become legally impossible. The only feasible remedy is to pressure the governments themselves to change the law. -
Copycat accounts that look like you but change one character in the username.
@dsmasterson But that can still happen whether your account is dormant or not.

@Em0nM4stodon I will not submit.
We need a face scan and photo ID in order to confirm your refusal.
If you change your mind and want to return, you can always come back with a face scan and photo ID.

@LukefromDC @Em0nM4stodon in theory, anyways, you can ID Verify a Data only Sim, run your actual phone with VOIP, and keep a VPN on. That SHOULD work. I'm looking for anything to keep a grip on my privacy here in the US though, and its getting tougher.

@DRIVEWAY7EXILE3GLORY @Em0nM4stodon I definately won't be keeping a phone number if that requires ID.
Signal will work for a while with a dead phone number, unless someone else reclaims it and then installs Signal.
I would imagine that an emergency of this level would force Signal's devs to support running Signal Desktop or Signal on a phone with no SIM wifi-only without a phone number.
I do not need voice calling service at all, and that's what the FCC claims to be focussing on.
