Thanks for the explanation. It sounds like a neat system.

Fascinating. Is there something specific about those temples that draws the crowds, like something akin to a famous cathedral? Must worship take place in a temple? I don't know how the religion works but did get to visit a local temple

Or just switch the order if Betty is the maid and you don't want to provide additional context: ``` They went to Oregon with a cook and Betty, a maid. ```

There are quite explicit constitutional limits to his ability to be elected to a third term. Short of a mitary-style takeover, there is nothing he can do to change that (discounting the scenario of constitutional amendment).

Isn't that more reason to go to your bank's website: to download the apk and then verify the hash of the downloaded apk before installing it? That would make me way more comfortable than the current system of "pray this app o

What happens when they move from default dns to ech with pinned dns servers? I was reading about ech a bit yesterday so I could keep up with apps trying to circumvent dns filtering on my kids' devices. Usually I require a root cert so

It's either because the non-ad-driven tvs cost more, resulting in too few sales to sustain (because no lifetime revenue from data sales) or the lifetime revenue from data sales is so profitable that companies take the risk on being und

Doesn't the act of notifying >16 today and >18 tomorrow leak birthdates?

You'll just get the proliferation of the scammy "free proxies" that claim to host virtual vms for you that are actual vms that just log all your data.

Yes, and the next battle is ech-pinned params in apps. The browser can at least single that ech isn't supported. For apps, you'll just have to strip the ech and downgrade the connection and live with the server dropping you. But t

I am a parent. The devices my child uses have root certs that allow me to decrypt traffic that must pass through my proxy to be relayed to the internet. Voila. Problem solved with current tech.

But what happens when a nefarious actor fills the void and publishes a root-kited VM and marks it as safe for children? These restrictions breed black markets that usually cause even more harm.
73.
by hellojesus 7mo ago
Agreed. Which is why I think the OS level is dumb. Kids can just live boot or launch a vm or keylog their parents' account. If it's windows, they can just live boot into the OS and get access to pretty much all the files anyway, i

Lol I remember back in the day when we used to replace the windows logo during boot with our own bitmaps (if I can appropriately remember the file format) at school. We showed kids and suddenly every computer was booting with unexpected med

This is where parents come into play...

by hellojesus 7mo ago
The law necessarily exists for parents that aren't tech literate, since we already have the ability to monitor and lock kids out from adult content. Do we really think parents will notice that a kid has installed a specific executable?
77.
by hellojesus 7mo ago
And some adults will lie too, assuming they don't need adult content, to avoid being tracked for advertisements, if laws exist that prevent ad targetting on some demo, say <13 year Olds.

Wait until they learn about live booting, VMs, keyloggers, etc. The goal of this bill is to set precedent that this can be regulated by the gov. Five years down the line they will complain it's not working and move to require tpm-based

I agree with you, but then the implication becomes, "any platform that allows user content must scan all content posted or uploaded by the user to determine if any of it suggests they are a minor". I adds a bit of burden to all si

by hellojesus 7mo ago
But why do we need it at the os level? Couldn't a parent just set a header in the browser for their kid and be done with it?

What if you aren't selling a product, like open source linux distros?
82.
by hellojesus 7mo ago
Yes. Soon ISPs will require hardware based remote attlestations to prove you haven't modified any software that wants to send or receive packets through them.

by hellojesus 7mo ago
Physical is different from digital. Sure, today many kids don't know or care about VMs, but they certainly will know and care tomorrow when this regulation hits. And that info will spread like wildfire all over social and blog posts. A

I think most people here are extrapolating the intent behind this law, the triviality with which it can be bypassed by minor account holders, and what that means for the future. Once this law is in effect, it will be ineffectual. Minors tha

Does it effectively outlaw general computing for minors by requiring account holders to set up accounts for minors where account holders are defined as being 18+? Im honestly not sure; but I could see that being the result of the law and co

Agreed, but isn't this a parental issue? Why aren't parents moving back to a "shared pc in the living room" model? I absolutely would not allow a kid to have an unregulated smartphone and then further compound the proble

But you can just block the domains on the device or router... This law is wholly unnecessary.

by hellojesus 7mo ago
It kind of does. Depending on how the mechanism works, if I check the user's age every time my executable is launched, and my user launches daily, I can determine with certainty what the user's birthday is. That information may be

I think the person meant that if you don't comply there may be civil or criminal consequences, so if you want to knowingly provide a non compliant website or app, you should host it on tor to prevent your person from being the subject
