the internet is a lawless land for better and for worse. really dont like all these talks and push towards controlling what goes and s***.

I get his intentions, but the "solution" leaves a lot to be desired in terms of effectiveness.

In terms of open social media, when he says cowards should say racial rhetoric with their real name, I actually more or less agree with that. But if that’s the case, then you should be able to say anything legal and not be banned for it. Only bannable offenses should be targeted harassment and breaking the law. That’s the only fair trade off.

Wtf is bait about that post? You sound like a hit dog rn lmao

you just reminded me i gotta delete my facebook. its been a long time coming

youtube tho

"you wouldnt have to worry if you have nothing to hide" is the same s*** you heard about the patriot act and the NSA

right wing propaganda

it's a special law for the EU, they want you to show ID to watch certain 18+ videos

If social media made it a way that the only way you could use it is to verify your identity then it would be much more pleasant

reread op the title of this thread is pretty misleading (please fix this @op )

idris wants govt id's to create/continue using social media accounts

what he wants, is to undo the foundations of what makes the internet the internet

Youtube should only ask for your ID if you're verifying Adsense or sumn

Ok now that's trash

EU law

wait until you find out that people will still spit hate rhetoric and audacity even with their identity out there

That's fine

Easier to point em out

don’t get it twisted, everything they want to know about you they already know

pointing them out doesn't mean anything changes

i agree with him about racist/homophbes etc spreading hate and hiding behind burners but there are so many routes platforms could individually take besides this

Arcade coon stay on his protect all straight white men beat

lmao im a brown communist you insane weirdo

arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say

Your post was misguided. You're just disregarding millions of people who only feel safe to be themselves thru anonymity they're not all, or even mostly racist

hey man at least you're consistent with your trash posts

this makes sense if you are Idris Elba but maybe some people wanna remain anonymous, which is totally fine and understandable.
