I agree: browsers need to start lying. We as a society should bite the bullet and start lying by honey potting as often as possible. If every web site also ran a WordPress login Honeypot, an ssh Honeypot like endlessh, and everyone answered every spam phone call, those activities would cease to be profitable. I bet a 25% answer and waste spammer time rate would eliminate phone scams in a few months.
- Obscurity4340 3y agoDoes anyone else notice how going on the internet is literally like being traffic stopped at every goddamn stop?! You spend more time being forced to "identify" or "be profiled" and you almost spend as much time being stopped and scolded and forced to comply than whatever you were even looking for in the first place Edit: license and registration == ip address (whats the deal with MAC addys?) browser fingerprint (gonna need to take your prints pre-charge) Edit: there was an article a while back about how the commercial hellishness of thr internet (which this is all a big part of) is driving folks to less advertisey/closed walls like HN, private groups (Discord, Matrix), etc. I don't see why everyone can't do something similar to HN and cut the rest of the bullshit but I feel like yCombinator "gets" way more requisite or accrued value by offering this forun than it actually costs or hurts them
