The UK government is like: “submit ID first before you use iPhone”, like WTF? As apparently, they are considering on making that the default way to unlock a cellphone whilst spying on you (like they already are) keeping tabs on what apps you’re currently using, have downloaded or purchases made online.
Their Online Safety Act is stupid ever since it was enforced last year as that has done nothing except for making people bypass it entirely (like there’s cases of game characters used to circumvent age verification & facial scans) so I’ll assume the same will happen with this (fake ID’s) just to unlock iPhones.
Wow. That’s awful. How does it work for poor people who can’t afford a phone to run the app?
Where I live the city buses still accept cash. But I don’t know for how much longer.
I try to get everyone of my friends to pay for everythng with cash. Food, buses, restaurants. Just to support the privacy option, so we don’t lose it. But they think payment apps are more convenient so they don’t listen, lol.
