   Befriend a Mechanic. My family personally knows three, you pay VERY low cost (pretty much covering only cost of parts) and some shit is even free.
   
   Mechanics are cool guys, frens.

     @Kirino @deadheat @MK2boogaloo >which an "Online Identification Card" becomes a mandatory requirement to even obtain a router
     Any computer with at least 1 8P8C port can be a router, will they require an; "Online Identification Card" to acquire new or used computers?

     I see it as the death of any democracy. It starts with a "hate speech" law and every time, without fail, the country begins spiraling on what is and is not acceptable behavior. What is and isn't okay for someone to see. What is and is not acceptable for something to think.
     
     Restrictions become tighter on the individual, pressure increase on foreign countries to censor / control media because that country PERSONALLY finds the content distasteful. In response those countries either comply or black hole the traffic (This is already happening)
     
     If things don't change FAST the (to quote Josh Moon) big I Internet WILL split into multiple smaller internets. That's a very scary prospect to me, as those "smaller" internets will be much easier to control, monitor and censor.
     
     I predict in that world that Proxy/VPN/Onion routing service will become quickly outlawed. Speech will tighten even further and will extend far beyond random online users. I also see a world in which an "Online Identification Card" becomes a mandatory requirement to even obtain a router. This identification will be a requirement to sign-up to platforms as well, of course.
     
     In England RIGHT NOW Apple backups are no longer end-to-end encrypted so that the U.K. government, if they so desire, can completely see what is/was on your device. In Germany the police are going to peoples homes who have posted "illegal opinions" and fining that person -- on top of this they CONFISACATE the device used to do it. The device is not returned.
     
     Think that's bad? The UK is slowly trying to set precedent for jail time for posting things that aren't EVEN hate speech. Things that might upset people, or make them feel uncomfortable or even things that are false.

     @Kirino @MK2boogaloo it's cool that in the US there's less hate speech laws, faggots actually think people should be sent to prison and fined if they feel offended by something you say, they are so disgusting

     @Kirino @deadheat @MK2boogaloo Most ISPs have the router as optional.
     
     I was just pointing out the futility of effectively preventing people from obtaining the router.

     I think it was pretty obvious I was referring to a router obtained via an ISP contract but go off I guess lmao.
