Magic rock go boom

My point wasn’t one of convenience, but more one of privacy. What’s the difference between someone demanding a photo of your ID (and then storing it) and someone taking the same information from an NFC scan and then storing it?

Why can’t people just go down to their local shop, show their ID like when you buy alcohol, and buy some kind of age verification token/code which can be used with online services?

If I were you I’d have a look at what Russia and Iran have been doing w.r.t. whitelists recently.

It may be tricky to block tor if you’re using a blacklisting strategy. But I imagine it’s fairly easy to block if you use a whitelisting strategy.

I mean it is, I could create a service that provided access to Tor via a VPN, but it would remove 99% of the reason you might want to use Tor.

Please present your ID to make use of Tor.
