@Polymarket: Reddit CEO says company considering Face ID to crack down on bots

Let it be known that Kiwi News will not implement KYC to filter for bots! This is the biggest non sense, to KYC and dox everybody just so that big tech has human only trading data!! Fuck that

That story sounds incredible: https://www.sambent.com/the-engineer-who-tried-to-put-age-verification-into-linux-5/

mhh but that blog post was weirdly written… What do you think the author is implying?

That is probably why there is this quiz at the end 😄.

No need to imply, he says it pretty clearly:

The reason to name him is the pattern. The surveillance state runs on volunteers: people who do the implementation work for free, out of genuine conviction, with no paper trail connecting them to the money that wrote the laws.

And that it is difficult to defend against these: "The open source community has always relied on the assumption that contributors act in good faith toward user freedom."
