My general point is that saying “I suspect that [something I could have checked]” is the worst kind of lazy cynicism. Just… read it? Or if you don’t have time, ask the question?
The US governments including the state of California, and Silicon Valley are the cynical pieces of shit and we all know it. This is connecting everybody’s ID to their IP address to be cataloged and everything they do by a novel means.
A database that lower level government and politicians and muckity mucks in the business world and foreign intelligence agencies and hackers will be able to access.
How is this connecting people’s ID to their IP address when this does not involve anything to do with people’s ID?
How did you manage to not only not read the article, but also fail to read the second highest top-level comment which points out exactly this?
This, by the way, is exactly why I think the comment I reply to should not have been made: it’s contributing baseless suspicion and cynicism, and when other people read it, it arouses their suspicion, but without any remnant of whatever tenuousness may have been possessed by the original commenter. You aren’t saying “I have a suspicion” you are saying “this is connecting…” as if you know it. But you don’t know it - you haven’t even read about what you’re talking about.
Making the parents sign the disclaimer introduces a database that these politicians and lower level government officials have access to. This is a lawyerly and run around doing the same thing while still having deniability to be shitty with anybody taking issue with it, which is you. You either trust politicians, or are being dishonest here.
