I’m worried this can be used to more easily target kids for propaganda. Harder to detect because it’s targeting people who don’t know… we might want to”fake kids” to audit the kind of content getting served to devices claiming as much.
I’m down for democratic socialism with ranked-choice voting, no EC, and worker co’op based business management. The economics of capitalism can stay, but only under proper management (i.e., the working class — who actually create the capital). Where’s your petition? I’ll sign.
Let the businesses fail. We have a new generation of people who’d be happy to have their chance in a truly free market.
We need bots, automations… I don’t know… we need a new category called “telemetry jammers.” If the tools existed, I’m almost certain people would not mind running them. Spam the hell out of telemetry sensors of all kinds, with random data… destroy the usefulness altogether. The more spam, the fewer people we actually need to participate. The more transparent to the actual user, the better.
If you rub out the serial number, I wonder if that would void the “valid for all US debt” designation on the bill… I mean, yeah the bill is damaged but it’s not like you can’t use damaged bills. I wonder how the legal argument would work here.
However, I think they could redesign the next years bill to print serials much larger / several times / encoded some other way. They could probably do it so that there will always be a readable serial, unless you completely destroy the bill.
