   legally i may need to block california from bubbletea since I host gitea and gitea can be used to download apps and does not have age verification

     @izzy@social.shadowkat.net i say we make a separate internet protocol for just adults because i never want to even perceive anyone under 18 on the internet. if they want to create their own network protocols and then maybe that should be allowed, but it should be determined by a <18 legal system all very far away from me :^)

     @shibao personally I have no interest in complying in advance with a terrorist state (the US) but given you live there it might be a fair call

     @shibao I wanted to turn fluffytail.org into a public instance months ago, only to be met with dumb laws like the Texas lolicon one. I agree with the sentiment and reason why it was created, but it is too much risk since that instance lives in Austin, TX.
     
     At this point hosting and the EU and dealing with the possible GDPR/DSA bulshittery might be a better option.

     @phnt@pl.borked.technology i'm just thinking broadly, this will force everyone to host private intranets and then force any external social communications to go through barely visible, centralized private community models like private trackers currently do
     
     basically just completely nuking any decentralized networks in favor of tiny, closed ones or corporations with massive legal teams
     
     jesus christ shit is sinking faster than I thought it would

     @shibao Unlikely, but the risk is currently too high for me even though that content would not be allowed as I hate everyone who posts it.
     
     But I run a media proxy for reasons that I won't turn off and the bill is unclear if just having that forbidden content in the cache would be an issue or not.

     @mirq@tsogol.tsiran.org i highly recommend finding your local tech hubs, usually they're slack or discord groups, asking local subreddits for your local tech community and getting phone numbers and setting up multiple modes of direct communication with them. don't just join the big groups, you need to have direct communication because those are currently thinking of moving away from slack or discord also

     >they're weaponizing children lmfao
     a fitting thing for pedophiles to do
     but they've also been doing it for decades. maybe centuries(? i'm not big on historical justifications for laws). "think of the children!" has been a warcry of authoritarians for a long time
     
     i just hope that when the Internet does crumble and we are all forced to either touch grass or as you mentioned maintain tiny intranets that only 'expand' via word of mouth, that I will fall somewhere on the inside.
     
     i don't want to lose touch with you weird people. you all make me feel sane

     Oh you just wait. Give it a few years in this insane climate and I wouldn't be surprised.
