@Foorack @vonderleyen I understand it just fine and my choice will be to not use the website. This includes social media, I am prepared to leave. Age verification is also coming to an app store and repository near you, this europe app is just 1 more domino in a long series of laws and changes.

@initseven @vonderleyen This is not for blocking access to running source code locally. You can choose to not use it on any device (android/Windows/etc.) It is up to websites to decide if they want to require it or not, and for you to decide if you want to use that website or not.

It is for parents to raise their children. Not platforms. The European Age Verification App is ready ↓ twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@Foorack @vonderleyen My point was I'll switch to using a mobile linux device and bypass this entirely

@Foorack @vonderleyen You fail to understand. I refuse any service that requires it and I'm even prepared to compile all of my software from source and not use systemd because I won't even allow age attestation within my workflow

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB I'm not religious either. You keep making assumptions and trying to put me into boxes that I don't fit in. I do think we all have a say when our country has legalized euthanasia. It affects my grandparents, my kids and future generations to come.

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB I’ll always argue when someone feels they have any right weighing in on anyone else’s healthcare rights, autonomy and medical choices. Especially when it seems driven by faith. I’m an atheist I don’t want religious bullshit dictating my life or death.

From the DM’s… There are growing concerns among physicians and healthcare workers that there are a LOT of unintended consequences and gaps in the UCP’s MAID legislation… Do you think there should be a pause to allow these gaps to be addressed? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

@vonderleyen Glad I'm not in Europe. I would switch to linux before ever using this

Our app ticks all the boxes. ✅ Highest privacy standards in the world ✅ Works on any device ✅ Easy to use ✅ Fully open source

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB This whole conversation started because I said it should be illegal and you don't like that I think differently from you. You haven't convinced me of anything and my position is still exactly the same. Do you feel like your time replying had any point to it?

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB It’s legal. No one needs to justify themselves to sanctimonious you.

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB Doesn't justify it.

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB They are authorizing medical consent. It’s between the professional medical doctor, and their patient. People get to a point where painkillers no longer help. Percocet, Tylenol 3, both addictive and damage organs from excessive use adding to the untreatable pain. It’s no life.

@yield2yetis @TheBreakdownAB

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB I don't hate you. Just trying to help you fulfill your desire to die on a hill. It's clear though - you don't understand the expression. (It's not a physical location.)

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB Mocking my disgust towards MAID instead of answering the point. I still don't believe the government should authorize death as treatment.

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB Cool. Get sick. It’s not your to you how a terminally ill person decides to live or die.

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB I'm not much of a conservative so I don't care. I have my own reasons and you can't sit here and convince me it's justified. It actually makes me sick.

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB There are two guarantees in life. Death, and taxes. Guess why conservative governments are against MAiD.

@furmsies Canadians think of others than themselves? You're joking right? Every time I see someone talk about hardship and living in poverty, there is a long list of comments gas lighting them. "You can leave" "it's not that bad, you're making it up" "It's bad everywhere"

Do you love being Canadian? Are you someone who thinks of others before thinking of themselves? Are you part of the group fighting back against right wing extremism? If so, let's be friends. Give me a Follow, or comment, and I will follow you as well. #ViveLeCanada

@yield2yetis @TheBreakdownAB The one behind my house at 9pm. Hate all you want, I don't care. I stand by what I believe

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB What time would you like to schedule that for? Name the precise hill and we'll be there ....

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB This is exactly why MAID keeps expanding. Once death is accepted as a solution to suffering, the argument is no longer about limits. It's about which suffering qualifies.

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB I guess we’re at an impasse. You accept the state authorizing doctors to end lives. I don’t. Medicine should care, treat, and preserve, not kill. To be blunt, MAID makes me sick. State-sanctioned death is still euthanasia, no matter how it’s framed.

Things age verification achieves: • Violating adults' privacy online • Creating leak and hack-worthy databases with tons of personal sensitive information • Censoring the internet as a whole Things age verification does not achieve: • Protecting children online

@fette_a @TheBreakdownAB Call me whatever made up shit you want. It's 100% wrong and I'll never respect anybody who stands for it. Especially with how it's been predictably expanded.

@initseven @TheBreakdownAB “I’ll die on that hill” …while wishing to deny the terminally ill their right to end their suffering. I thought Poilievre calling Carney “uneducated” was the dumbest thing said today until now.

@MarkJCarney I'm not coming together, you don't have any unity from me. I'm going to ignore my country and work hard to improve my own situation rather than have any hope or faith that this country will turn itself around. It's the only piece of the situation I have agency over.

We’re cutting taxes on fuel across Canada. Starting next Monday, you’ll save up to 10¢/L on gas at the pump.

@brianbondy @BrendanEich @TanknDessertLvr @bee_fumo Awesome! It feels good knowing I helped contribute in a small way. Been a Brave user since the beginning almost

@initseven @BrendanEich @TanknDessertLvr @bee_fumo Settings search bug fixed here github.com/brave/brave-co… We'll get it merged today and hopefully builds by the next day.

huh

@BigMickThePrick @Weird_Canadian @KMLOnt 100%. An LPC majority is bad in lots of other ways too.

@initseven @Weird_Canadian @KMLOnt Agreed entirely. I'm not naive enough to think the conservatives will be the saviors of the free Internet. It's doomed regardless but an LPC majority is throwing gas on the fire.

As much as it might want to, the government can’t ban kids from social media. All it can do is ban everyone — unless and until we ‘show our papers.’ No.
