You’re the one making wild claims dude. So yeah, it falls on its face, you have no evidence for what you claim, and there’s literally evidence against what you claim.
Ok, here’s proof of what you make me assume you’re referencing as there’s no mention of anything at all, just broad statements. Also, look above, I’ve provided data already while you’ve gone little kid mode getting cranky and just blindly following the nonsensical trajectory of you’re ludicrous and half baked initial statement.
“Facial age estimation tools are notoriously unreliable, particularly for people of color, trans and nonbinary people, and people with disabilities. The internet has now proliferated with stories of people bypassing these facial age estimation tools. But when systems get it wrong, users may be forced into appeals processes or required to submit more documentation, such as government-issued IDs… Even newer approaches (things like age inference, behavior tracking, financial database checks, digital ID systems) expand the web of data collection, and carry their own tradeoffs around access and error.”
… you’ve got to be joking lol. you do realize that discord isn’t the ones getting the government ids right? like all of your claims hinge on discord retaining these ids, which I’ve already explained you don’t have to provide (you’ve even admitted that) and that they don’t even get if you do provide it!
I don’t even know why you’re defending governments here. It’s ridiculous! discord isn’t the problem, it’s government’s passing laws that cause this!
liked what even are you arguing? that there aren’t laws being passed that cause this?
edit I just saw your edit claiming:
PS: The EU, Australia, and United States population’s combined is 9.9% of the worlds population. But due to 38% of US states and 11% of EU countries with some ID law, plus Australia’s first attempt to keep kids under 16 off social media, you still can somehow validate the global enforcement of laws put forward by the minority population from a group representing less than 10% of the planet?!
well yeah. The USA is 30% of discord’s userbase, so of course they’re going to add features that affect everyone if thirty % of their userbase now has ID laws. They’re not gonna partially implement it. Your claim that I’m bad at math is hilarious since you seem so focused on the complex conspiracy theory that you can’t even see the plainly obvious truth. Occam’s Razor.
