Good morning Fedi friends,

  • @patricus @_elena I also think a lot of Mastodon instances will say a big FU to any age verification laws and continue to operate like normal, and if governments try to intervene then they'll fight back until it starts to hurt the governments more than the community. Basically akin to a digital riot, where the governments are crippled and cannot continue the effort.

    @alexchapman @_elena it can't happen, sadly with what is happening it's gonna be more and more strict soon we'll land in Russia-levels of bullshit.

    @patricus @_elena And then us instance hosters will fight back and say to these governments, you can't win against the almighty Mastodon community! Lmao.

  • @_elena this helps for the individual - but not for the once running an instance for others....
    I really hope this social media ban, like in France now, is only "for the big ones".

    In theory: the Fediverse is a big one too:
    - 13.8M Accounts in total
    - but only 1,141,317 active Acounts.
    (source: @fedidb)

    If the numbers are for each server, most of us don't have to suffer anything. If it's the (complete) Fediverse, and it makes sense to see it that way, we are doomed too.

    Unfortunately, most laws are either worded so vaguely that it's up to the regulator's discreation (the Online Services Act in the UK for example) or explicitly apply to sites of all sizes and maybe have some handwaving language along the lines of requiring networks to deploy age verification methods that are "commercially reasonable".

    It's certainly not a good situation, and anxiety is very warranted, but I don't think we're necessarily doomed. In the short term, VPNs are a thing and can buy us some time (although as we're seeing in the UK, age-limiting VPNs is the next step).

    What I do think is that we have to mobilize to fight these kinds of bad internet bills more effectively. Here's a thread with some initial thoughts and a request for other suggestions - https://neuromatch.social/@jdp23/116967043175194824
