Coffee Meets Bagel requests government IDs to date now
As if surveillance capitalism and track and trace wasn't bad enough, now even so-called "free" dating sites are joining in on the madness by forcing users to provide government-issued identification just to find a date down the street. Where does this end? Or has it just begun? And why are so many willing to give up their freedoms in exchange for a little temporary convenience?

Facebook works directly with oppressive central governments to implement censorship against their citizens.[1] Some might consider that getting screwed over.

Americans used to use unencrypted telephony every day because they expected the government to uphold constitutional guarantees. That day ended shortly after 9/11 and the passage of the Patriot Act, which I believe today is used against Patriots more than it is used on their behalf.

Be nice if Americans could make something this good again. Have you seen WhatsApp lately? It's a pure travesty.

Interested to read a blog post about that story if you decide to write about it. Woz tought us never to trust a computer. Trusting software seems equally risky. Approaching comms from this perspective leads one to assume the best place to hide, so to speak, is in the open—in plain sight.

Philosophy and sociology should be moved earlier in the curriculum. I gained much from studying Descartes and Bertrand Russell, and learning propositional logic. The school system did not teach me those things until after I graduated high school. Had those teachings come earlier I may not have been as susceptible to propaganda at such a young age as I was.
