"Und wir tanzten"

Toller Song übrigens... reiner Zufall oder Ausdruck guten Musikgeschmacks jenseits des üblichen Mainstreams?

I would've assumed it's the same as the english text of the other visible edge...

No, only peasants on foot trying to annoy our wheeled overlords and their owners.

On the contrary... anyone able do bridge interstellar distances will agree that the near orbit belongs to the planet.

Doch, die Möglichkeit Alter oder zumindest Volljährigkeit nachzuweisen ist schon realtiv wichtig. Deshalb ginge das ja auch schon längst, ist nämlich nicht kompliziert.

Darum geht es hier aber gar nicht. Das ist wie immer nur ein Märchen als Vorwand für Überwachung und das Aufweichen von Privatsphäre.

Da muss man nicht mal großartig was implementieren. Einfach die Angabe dem ePerso (mit "diese Person in nach den Gesetzen des entsprechenden Staates volljährig" erledigt man sogar Grenzfälle unterschiedlicher Altersgrenzen) hinzufügen, wo auslesen einzelner Daten ohne den Rest schon möglich und das Ganze durch den ausstellenden Staat hinreichend verifiziert ist und fertig.

Das ist aber numal der Witz daran. Man will keine Alterverifikation. Man will Überwachung und das Sammeln privater Daten. Die Altersverifikation ist nur der Vorwand.

Und hirnlose Idioten, wie hier in dem Artikel machen fleißig mit.

Die Wirklichkeit ist nämlich: Altersverifikation ohne Verletzung der Privatssphäre ist einfach. Die geisteskranken Ideen, die stattdessen gepushed werden, eben weil das nur ein Vorwand ist, sind dann aber in der Tat in einer Demokratie nicht machbar. Und das ist auch gut und richtig so. Trotzdem werden sie es immer weiter versuchen. Lügen, wie diese hier, dass unsere Vorstellung von Demokratie oder Datenschutz das Problem sind, gehören nur mit zur Kampagne.

My first thought was: So Slackware works very well but is ugly as hell?

Warum geht hier kein Ansatz von “Markt regelt”?

Aber genau darum geht es doch. Bisher mussten die Kommunen aber dafür aufkommen, weil sie dazu verpflichtet waren, im Notfall die Grundversorgung sicher zu stellen. Wenn mein Anbieter mir also zu teuer wird, lass ich den Vertrag auslaufen und der "Grundversorger" muss dann weitermachen und mich versorgen, zu "marktüblichen Preisen", auch wenn sie dafür die Infrastruktur bezahlen müssen und dabei normalerweise eben keine großen Gewinne machen (denn die gehen ja die meiste Zeit an die privaten Anbieter).

Nope... those are paid from the other side, mainly US tech that on one hand tries to provide AI systems for surveilance while also getting access to more data that they can then use to improve those systems.

Basically every historic precedent works here. The turn of the 19th to 20th century can be mainly characterized by the results of a rapid technological advancement via industrialisation in which the workers were left behind while the control sat in higher-up circles, partly made up from remaining aristocracy and partly from rich high education citizens who accumulated mnost of the produced wealth. This basically slowly eliminated a general middle-class, provoking clashes between left wing worker movements representing the majority but not having the power and an established rich upper class trying to exploit them for more wealth. (To no one's surprise this is exactly the time when capitalism was defined in details: Karl Marx - Das Kapital (volume 1 to 3, 1867-1894 ))

That scenario can only (and usually has) resulted in either revolution or focusing that (poor, and usually less educated) majority's anger into another direction. The latter resulted in nationalist populist movements all throughout Europe. The only thing in doubt is if it would have won everywhere over time (as in some countries there still was a stable enough middle-class to delay that development at least fo a time). I assume so, but we will never know, as the countries where this development won faster (usually because the pre-conditions for the poorer population were already worse) changed the course of history for all.

If you want to call it a rise of fascism (the original one in Italy), nazis (in Germany) or a definitely fascistic military dictatorship based on "popular front" politics -with some support by monarchists realizing the risk they were in- (Spain) doesn't make a huge difference in the big picture.

Also: for a less historic and more "today" point of view look at Russia. Contrary to people still associating them with communism their form of oligarchy is definitely a variant of late-stage capitalism. In fact the risk of the US' capitalism developing even further into a pure wealth-based oligarchy is a discussion topic for at least two decades. And look were Russia is taking pointers from right now... straight from the nazi playbook.

(And now that I have mentioned it... and the discussed risk of the US moving into the same oligarchy direction: Isn't there a certain guy leaning heavily into far-right nationalism while using fascist and nazi rhetorics at times, who wants to become president again?)
