@purism The solution begins with restricting banks and financial platforms: mandate Tor-only access, mandate passkeys, criminalize fingerprinting, criminalize collection of biometrics

@purism

This is why I don't see laws as the answer to all of my problems. Many people would rather try to make privacy some legal right so that they can continue to use their devices that will more than happily trample on and bypass those laws rather than taking initiative and choosing to use devices that voluntarily follow the morals and ethics that they want. I trust a company that chooses to be good when they don't have to rather than trust a company only doing so because they want to avoid jail or a fine. Companies that do the right thing for the right reasons should be supported.
