I think it may be time for the public to create their own P2P mesh networks that are “disconnected” from the main internet.

Also as a self-hoster I wonder how this would effect smaller individuals that run their own blogs and websites. How would a small random person be forced to put up a ID verification on their website that they might be running on a small POS laptop?

This ID is already provided with a credit card number TBH and any other info needed to setup a ISP or cellphone plan, but there are ways around that.

One is purchasing a month to month phone plan with cash for example. Or finding open wifi networks and routing all traffic through a personal VPN or a commercial VPN.

It would be pretty easy to subvert tbh for anyone tech savvy enough.

It’s like bypassing windows 11 “cloud account” and using a local account instead. If a person cares enough to ask why someone needs a cloud account to access their own PC.

For ID verification a personal VPS purchased in another country and routing all your home network traffic through that would bypass any ID checks. Also offline copies of websites and downloading content through P2P or usnet would be visible in obscuring your “viewing history”.

And porn can still be purchased or shared on bootleg DVDs.

Why not provide parents with routers instead that have easy to set parental controls?

This feels very similar to someone coming into my home and telling me how to raise my own kids.

The government could also create its own curated list of websites that are considered “kid friendly” at different age gaps and have it made available within a routers parental control menu to be turned on/for deviced marked as being used by ones child on your home network.

Also at the same time it’s not about protecting children, it’s about controlling the general population with the guise of protecting the children. It’s like getting searched when walking in and walking out of a store.

And I suppose you might want to add public consensus as well.

I for one believe Canada should look to expand its energy sector, but within the scope of renewables and alternative power sources. Looking at wind, solar, thermal, wave and tidal energy.

For one it would make out countries grid more resilient in the long run for a multitude of reasons.

I suppose dvd order porn will become a thing once again.

Or alternatively we can start sharing bootleg USBs with our friends.

The Internet had begun its enshitification stage, as governments look to control and lock down access to the internet people will find new and creative ways to bypass these barriers. For one, things like Tor or going back to DVDs and physical media might get more main stream.

Last year the Province passed Bill 212, Reducing Gridlock, Saving You Time Act, which sought to remove 19 kilometres of Toronto’s protected bike lanes.

Together, we fought back and won.

But the court decision did not stop the Province from blocking new bike lanes. And now it is trying to do exactly that with Bill 60, Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act.

Bill 212 at least pretended it would set criteria for new bike lanes. Bill 60 drops the pretense. It lets the Province ban any reduction of motor vehicle lanes, and the wording is so broad that it will not just impact bike lanes but also affect bus priority lanes, patios, school streets, and other street improvements that rely on reallocating space. This isn’t just about settling grudges against Toronto. The consequences will be felt across Ontario.

Now the province intends to skip committee and rush the legislation through without hearing from feedback from the public.

How can I run this on unraid, and can I point it at multiple domains and sub-domains?

I for one will be going back to written letters for all further correspondence.

Wonder if my postman is reading my letters though as well?

We need a federal inquiry into any foreign investment and influence within Canada.

I understand globalization is an advantage and benefit, we just need to make sure those foreign investments make it back into investing into Canada and Canadian people, not just leaching off of Canadians.

If this is the case then I agree with pulling it off the shelf. Thank you for clarifying this point.

It would be “okay-ish” if these were just “police camaera”. But the simple truth is they are not just “police cameras”.

The local police departments do not own the hardware or software. These devices are supplied by third party companies that completely own the hardware and software, and we can’t be completely sure how this information is being used or accessed.

These third parties provided access to local law enforcement based on a fee, but other then that the Third-Party has completely autonomy in how they choose to use these cameras, also don’t forget these things have microphones as well.

Also those mobile police cameras you see in Walmart parking lots for example, those are more then likely flock cameras as well.

I don’t understand why simply future stock was just not cancelled along with any current shipments, letting current remaining stock just “dry up” and not get restocked.

The public could have even bought the remaining stock and just poured it out while capturing it in a TickTok video.

It seems like such a waste of time and resources to “pull items off the shelf” for a business. You need to pay staff to take it off the shelf, pack it up, and then take time and effort to truck it back somewhere. Adding to all this transportation costs and the pulling it off a truck and restocking it somewhere. And now storage costs as well…

The stock was already paid for by the LCBO if I am not missing something blatantly obvious. The LCBO now has a quantity of already purchased stock they can’t sell, and paying storage costs for.

People will die because of this. You will see people opt not to get medical treatments or seek to get help.

If you have not already done so watch the animated series Pantheon (2022). Worth the watch and goes deep into simulation and concesiones.

Lawsuit incoming…?

Strange, I don’t seem to be paying anything at the moment. I wonder who’s really paying the bill? The American public you say?
