of course not. not even the company, KWS, per their terms, can assure you your data is safe. your data can and will be sold, or leaked if they aren't lying about not selling your information (which is probably a lie.)

I can smell the hypocrisy of their post just reading it. 🤢

Here's the State Budget, where this was passed, Page 655-658 (Ends paragraph 3.)

It is very obvious that this is less of a means to protect children and much more a project to collect sensitive user data to sell towards a facist government that wishes to silence opposing voices by all means. You are thus making your platform less safe for everyone.

I'd also like to add one thing to this. It should never be a state's, let alone the internet's, job to monitor a child/children on the internet. If you can't monitor your child and what they do on the internet, you're failing as a parent. The Internet is not a free babysitter for hire.

For anyone in the same state and is affected by this, I recommend installing a VPN.

Yeah, I don't trust any third party service with my ID. Kiss my ass. 🖕This totally won't back fire for the company. Worse case, I'll just fall back to Twitter.

1, why should a law made in the UK be affecting something within the US? Second, if they start applying age verification under the guise of user safety, I'll let them gladly delete my account. This was never to protect users let alone children.

It's better to shut down service to Ohio and require users to have to use a VPN, than to comply with these authoritarian overreaches into privacy.

I had learned on the 23rd that Hara Urara had died of Colic. They're the horse, aside from Gold Ship, whose stories I gravitated to the most. If not for Uma Musume Pretty Derby, I would never have gotten to learn about these wonderful horses. Fly high Haru. 🪽

Nice. XD

Bruh, I don't even know who TF that is. X-X

And you all wonder why I want a devil arm that's literal roller skates. 😂 /Lh

Nah, he doesn't deserve to witness this perfection. Not after butchering things.

Lol
Still, I wish Nightshade and Glaze had apps for IOS. Cara is kinda the only way I can get my works protected when on mobile.

My recent piece. Would post the image, but with AI scalping becoming more and more of a problem, I no longer feel safe posting without some security. Have to protect what you make, ya know.

Yo! This is absolutely fire! 🔥💕

'Resident Evil 4' And 'Devil May Cry 4' Producer Admits Industry Has Grown To Point Where A Game "Just Being Fun Isn't Enough To Sell" Former Capcom producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi says that unlike years past, a game's success now depends on far more than whether or not it's fun.

One of the reasons I changed my mind about going into a #gaming career. Indie's definitely the way to go nowadays: boundingintocomics.com/video-games/...

Discord has apparently added generative AI "apps" users can use to modify any image posted in any discord server.

On by default, no way to disable them, no moderation tools.

Fuck discord, support artists (discord sure doesn't).

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.
