I signed up last night. I will be happy to see what a platform free of bots will be like. It's a shame that cutting out bots also cuts out mannequins, but that's the price of glory, I suppose.
But as a thought, couldn't you register yourself as a corporation? I've heard that corporations are people too. Rules are meant to be bent :-)
And I don't see how the Swiss government could complain about you becoming a corporation. They know all too well that corporations have no heart.
I don't like bots & trolls, so I have to accept Voice's decision... so yes, that's the price :-(
I will try the corporation thing... a Swiss corporation with a big plastic heart, haha.
d'Ya love KYC procedure?)
It has advantages and disadvantages.
there is no advantages in storing thousands of identities nobody knows where
I am practical and I choose my battles wisely (I hope).
If I want to travel to foreign countries under the current state of the planet, I need a passport in order to enter and leave through border crossings. To get a passport, I have to submit to some pretty serious kyc. Do I trust governments to keep that kyc identity info safe and confidential? Up to a point.
I guess I have the option to go by foot to remote unregulated places to enter and leave a particular country, but that is not practical and would seriously restrict my opportunities and range for general travel purposes.
With social media, I have a choice of which ones to use and for which purposes. And how and how often. I am against almost everything Facebook does and stands for. But I have an account which I will use on very infrequent occasions for specific purposes, and then not use it again for months and years.
Matthew 10:16 King James Version (KJV)
16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
It's really a necessary 'evil' to help protect users from those wanting to do evil...
Peace.
what evil?) I just want to use a nickname, and Dan wants to collect all the data about every single user
I hear ya'....The evil of which I speak is those who robbed the naive of millions via bogus apps...Of course, this may have been before your time on the platform...Untraceable 'nicknames' cost thousands of unsuspecting users $millions. Besides that, the IRS wants in on the rewards, so it's not Dan really...it's more like cya...all bases...
Peace.
