Cloudflare is just 20% of the Internet, way behind of Amazon and Microsoft.

Why would anyone buy it then?

Fair point. But using social media means spreading social media among other addicts.

how do you enforce this without removing anonymity?

That’s the point - you don’t.

Are they though? Can you buy heroine in the UK freely? Aren’t Chinese and Russian media channels banned in the UK?

They obviously don’t want to do it. But my point is that I think they actually can’t.

I mean Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Cloudflare definitely can’t filter real people from AI. Documents photos, real time videos, those are even easier for AI to fake than to the real people to make them.

That brings us to the good old sms to a physical sim card purchased in a real shop with human face and document check. And that also will be spoofed in like 6 months.

It’s actually funny how some years ago The Great Chinese Firewall was a thing that we looked at as some horror. Yet very soon in the Western countries the Internet will be by passport only. China won’t probably implement this as they likely already know everything they want about their users.

We don’t believe you otherwise.

anonymous social media is what Russia, China and other dictatorships use to undermine and affect public opinion

You talk from the past. Nowadays bots are less anonymous than real people.

if people can figure out bot accounts

That’s a big IF and most of the times they don’t.

25000 accounts all connect from the same IP address

That’s just not how it works.

Aren’t they already scanned? Don’t know about the UK but in modern countries there are cameras everywhere

Said a person or AI on a social media…

Can they even do it? AI nowadays can reliably parse captchas, present themselves as adults, with little effort they’ll even present documents and “real” photos

Thank you for your ancient wisdom.

all these companies are sharing the same brain cell…

This cell is called investors.

Seems you are confused how those blocks work so let’s talk about their services that are definitely not blocked like mail. You can easily and legally buy their mail service in those countries. Do they have to comply with their laws with their mail service?

Didn’t understand your answer about the US laws. If some judge in the US decides that Proton need to make a backdoor, what happens then?

It works sometimes, and Proton did not stop providing services there, you can buy their vpn, the government just blocks the protocols.

The US has a law that may require you to add backdoors to your software. Do they have to comply with that one in your opinion?

Who will prosecute them in Switzerland and for what? They didn’t break any Swiss laws.

What happens if they don’t pay?

Let’s imagine they don’t comply. What will happen then?
