I know some aspects of this concept are abhorrent to most Americans, including myself, but I don't see a way out of fixing "the internet" and social media, without directly dying everything we do on the internet to a valid SSN/DL. Want to be an evil motherfucking commenting in the comment sections of youtube and reddit? Ok. No anonymity. Buying public data on people? Flag that shit and send a notice to the people who's info got sold, since obviously personal privacy doesn't exist anymore. Uncomfortable with your sexuality because you're a repressed homosexual or like being pegged? Fuck it, your porn history is out there for everyone to see. You'll either let your freak flag fly, or you're going to have to repress that shit more and jerk off without the internet like we all grew up doing. 

Bring back personal accountability and shame. Anonymity clearly doesn't work. 

It's less about "fixing the internet" and more about enforcing baseline data collection and retention rules, like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe. It's a law with real teeth that lets governments and citizens go after data brokers and assert sovreignty over their own identity and data online. 

It's less about anonymity and more about not allowing any private entity to acquire and exploit the data of hundreds of millions of people for whatever means they want. And yes yes yes, it's never going to completely be gotten rid of - onion routing and the dark web give bad actors a ton of tools to avoid enforcement. But if it's explicity illegal and treated as the bad behavior that it is, it will significantly reduce its negative impact.

 

That's far afield from THIS specific issue, but goddamn, the dude would not have been able to target and conduct his terroristic assasination plot - but for the easily accessed personal data marketplaces online.

Right, we're talking around each other. I agree with all of your post regarding data protection and how it's done in Europe. I was more referring to the general concept of civility and lack of accountability the internet fosters, particularly here.

I do find it fascinating that many of the same folks that are clamoring for EU-style regulation of food dyes and ingredients, the "MAHA!" types.....are opposed to a similar GDPR regimen here.  Both would be really good ideas that would substantially improve the quality of life in America.

He doesn't respond to any criticism. I literally clocked his ass in less than a minute for posting a "news" story in a screenshot without a link because he was trying to hide the source and he instantly moved on.

It’s not surprising.  Evangelical Christianity is man made.

The man accused of killing a Minnesota lawmaker had spiritual roots in a Christian movement whose leaders speak of demon-possessed politicians and that proved its ability to mobilize followers during the January 6 insurrection, Stephanie McCrummen writes. https://bit.ly/4jTTHKh

Wrong is one way of putting it. If you were to say “I’m a shithead fuck-up that drinks my news from a far right social media firehouse” it would probably be more accurate, but congrats on acknowledging you were wrong. Did you learn anything or reevaluate where you get your news from?

Sorry losers but this guy wasn't motivated by a cause or politics but rather mental illness.

Dude was a nut - another Hinckley or Jared Loughler (sp?).

Boelter claimed he needed to kill Klobuchar so Walz could run for the U.S. Senate. Walz isn't running for the Senate - he opted against it earlier this year and is mulling running for a third term as governor. The letter is incoherent, 1.5 pages long, confusing and hard to read.

the guy who assassinated a democrat had mental health issues.   Shocking 

His manifesto sounds about as logical as half the shit the president tweets or you’d hear on AM radio.

Yeah, the insanely pro life guy and who was a member a radical evangelical church and who has a hit list of democrats, abortion providers, and abortion advocates was totally not motivated by any right politics. Nope, just random mental illness and nothing else to see.

Huh. Then maybe a certain segment of our leadership should stop tossing lit matches of hate onto these explosive nutbars. That would be helpful. Stop feeding stochastic terrorism, and create fewer stochastic terrorists. Naah, that’s too easy.

Let be fair, not to discount the leadership but our corporate oligarchs creating rabbit hole content feeds to whatever agenda the crazy person finds themselves diving down also plays a massive part in the equation. Then there is personal autonomy. That's often offset by a lack of any efforts to help folks with mental illness even when the signs are clear, if there is money to even pay for it.

Don't worry.  The progression isn't done.  They're going to go back to the "actually, he was a No Kings leftist" and finally "he is a political prisoner, pardon him."  It's an unbroken pattern.

This isn’t even the first time a right wing murderer has pretended to be the right’s fake lefty conspiracy version of himself as a troll. You’re basically promoting a terrorist’s manifesto. Good work, dipshit.

holy shit US police suck everywhere

So, as I suspected, the police response to the shootings of Democratic elected officials in Minnesota was actually a complete disaster https://www.startribune.com/new-details-from-crucial-hours-after-lawmaker-shootings-raise-questions-about-police-response/601432709?utm_source=gift

They acted like they were heroes for saving the day. Even though they knew the truth. Really disgusting. Definitely shades of Uvalde. It's shocking how useless PD's are at being productive members of society.
