AKA filtered news, but officially approved.
from "protecting children" to deciding what information people are allowed to see
that escalated quickly 😬

The UK is considering new laws that would force YouTube and other social media platforms to prioritize "trustworthy" news sources. If passed, trusted media sources like the BBC would get prioritized over content creators in the UK.

WhatsApp introducing usernames is a good step.
but you’re still handing it to the company that builds a business around user data and metadata.
privacy is not about hiding, it’s when you don’t have to give it away in the first place.
WhatsApp@WhatsApp
your phone number is personal and sometimes you want to connect without handing it over. that's why we're introducing usernames for WhatsApp. starting this week, you can reserve a username to use later this year when we launch the feature. It takes just a few seconds, make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp and then go to Settings > Account > Username.

Status is designed so you do not need to hand over sensitive data just to communicate.
No phone number, No email, No ID scan, No biometric checkpoint, No third-party identity vendor.
your account is controlled by your keys, messages are end-to-end encrypted, communication runs through P2P logos communication (formerly know Waku)
Status is built around data minimization, self-sovereign identity, and privacy by design

Discord is moving from one age-verification vendor to another. But users have already seen what happens when platforms outsource identity checks.
privacy is not “trust us, we delete it.”
privacy is never asking for it in the first place.
Wumpus Central@WumpusCentral
Discord is beginning to implement Incode for age verification, a move that is already sparking serious privacy concerns among users. While Discord claims that Incode processes biometric data locally via on-device AI without permanent server-side logging, sharing sensitive IDs and selfies with any third-party vendor remains a massive red flag for many. Given Incode's controversial history with platforms like TikTok, where the vendor was heavily criticized for long retention periods and storing biometric data server-side, users who expect strict privacy are highly skeptical about handing over their biometrics, regardless of Discord's current technology claims.
