No geolocation is needed. And even if it was, these are technical problems, inherently solve able.

So far, we are building walls and replacing mortar with a new one, while attackers bombard us with complete impunity. This is never going to work.

This would of course need new extensions /protocols (even simplest would require authentication envelope around encrypted traffic).

The problem is that you think a societal problem can be solved technically.

The whole point is to move from technical solution (i.e. current approach) to legal one.

Not a single response had anything to do with either problem ITA or my comment.

I am not sure if you are troll, 10 y/o or gpt1, but have a nice day.

Quite humble of you to presume anyone who disagrees with your "brilliant" idea has something wrong with their brain.
