Don't worry, this will still happen, they'll just use stolen IDs from previous fishing victims, or from the database of 70,000 that Discord already had breached.
It's real hard to find the interferer when there's interferers everywhere
It's actually pretty easy to locate a radio source on a particular frequency, especially if it's a frequency where most transmitters are known/registered (e.g. police radios).
also triangulation is hard, particularly for a bunch of meat heads who have been shown to struggle with high school education.
You do realize that not all police are beat cops, right? They have technical specialists. If there's an issue outside the qualifications of a regular officer, they just refer it to the specialists who know exactly what to do.
Police have been driving around with suitcase-sized Stingray devices since at least 2006. They absolutely have equipment that can triangulate a radio source - they don't even really need to understand how it works, just turn it on.
Enforced toxic positivity does not produce better conversations or better communities. It basically just turns a discussion forum into Disneyland, where everyone is happy all the time, because there's no other option. It's the kind of yes-man thinking you get in corporate meetings that produce really bad ideas because "don't be negative! there are no bad ideas here!"
China is doing this sort of thing, and worse, they're just less obvious about it.
For instance, China operates unauthorized police stations inside other countries, which they use to enforce party loyalty and target dissidents.
You should also read the article about Chinese government interference in Canada:
The Canadian government has been tracking Chinese government efforts to influence Canada since at least 1986.
In 2016, newspaper sources reported that Justin Trudeau had been attending cash-for-access events at the homes of wealthy Chinese Canadians in Toronto and Vancouver, generating a political scandal. Attendees at these events, including those with connections to the CCP, would pay up to $1,525 per ticket to meet Trudeau.
The People's Republic of China made attempts to interfere in the 2019 Canadian federal election and 2021 Canadian federal election and threatened Canadian politicians, according to Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and the Parliament of Canada's Foreign Interference Commission.
PRC manipulation activities in Canada are well documented, but it would be extremely naive to think they aren't pulling the same shit in other countries.
This is a bad idea. Transmitting on a government frequency with enough power to interfere with other radio traffic will get you a police visit. You're basically turning on a big lightbulb that says "come find me" for anyone who would bother to triangulate the source of the interference.
Do you generally struggle with reading comprehension?
However, sustaining broad-spectrum jamming over a large area is expensive and impractical.
If the mesh network is wide enough, redundant enough, mobile enough, then traffic can be routed around jammed areas.
Who said anything about how it looks?
Shanghai is a global financial center, ranking third in Asia and eighth globally on the Global Financial Centres Index.[139] Shanghai is also a large hub of the Chinese and global technology industry and home to a large startup ecosystem. As of 2021, the city was ranked as the 2nd Fintech powerhouse in the world after New York City.[140]
As of 2019, the Shanghai Stock Exchange had a market capitalization of US$4.02 trillion, making it the largest stock exchange in China and the fourth-largest stock exchange in the world.[141] In 2009, the trading volume of six key commodities—including rubber, copper, and zinc—on the Shanghai Futures Exchange all ranked first globally.[142] By the end of 2017, Shanghai had 1,491 financial institutions, of which 251 were foreign-invested.

Shanghai is about as communist as Wall Street. It should look nice, they certainly have the money for it.
Except that the children who are suffering didn't choose this.
Nobody with any sense would spend any effort on discussion in YouTube comments.
Um, do you have some contrary evidence to present? Or is your position just "US bad"?
The only Lemmy community I'm aware of that has actually removed downvotes is hexbear - because they were tired of having their pro-Maoist rhetoric downvoted to oblivion by sane people. Hexbear is not a healthy place.
