Now we would need to make tools for removing the fingerprint of media

@hopelessdecoy This is more serious than NFT's, there's already a lot of compromising metadata in files these days, but they are asking for this on a global scale and asking for it to become mandatory for everyone through the heavy hands of the state. If something like this is approved and they don't create a tool to remove all kinds of watermarks from digital content in the first month, I will do it myself.

This is literally the way to increase the already extremely heightened government and corporate control over literally everything we do and consume, what could possibly go wrong?

@camwha5904 Honey, they want this to become a legal standard, do you understand that the idea of "screenshotting the image" will not only lose quality but will most likely have to be part of the screenshot tools that will fingerprint it?

@adamk.7177 I don't get it, do you think I'm some kind of idiot? Or do you not know the difference between a hash and a fingerprint backed by the origin of a content and the identity of its creators?

@ddd-op5wy I don't disagree that they can't remove free software from your PC, but they can criminalize it and make developers have to comply with regulations to stay on the most famous repository sites like Github, or consider it as "inappropriate" or "illegal" otherwise, and we know that free software depends on incentives to exist just like any other form of human activity. But of course, I'm just assuming the worst case scenario here to get you all to think more critically about this, I at least hope that it doesn't get to a tenth of that situation or rather that it doesn't even become legal.

@sharl1633 @mr.zer0773 Yes, for both of you, I'm aware of that. Open source has always been the solution to these kinds of problems, it's also part of what I'm talking about. What worries me the most in this case is that they want to force solutions to adopt this technology through legal means, this can harm even open source, so it's something that will need to be carefully watched from here.

@maxheim3802 That is why this movement must be done from the beginning, so that the number of people who adhere to it becomes large enough to make any attempt at regulation inefficient and evidently megalomaniacal for public opinion.

@antoninperonnet6138 It's not about changing the signature, I guess you don't know much about cryptography but that's not a problem, I'm just pointing out that's not what I'm talking about. I would advise you to think instead of the following sentence: "What's the point of cryptography if you are required to reveal your identity and information every time you encrypt something?"

@arbaran01 It has always been so in the case, big corporations are subordinate to the government and love to have it destroy their competition, it is a relationship of mutual benefit to them and objective harm to the rest of society.

@x0rn312 I am happy to hear that the spirit of freedom still sings in the open source community, and I also intend to be a part of that development if it really happens. Interpret my comment as a way to make people aware of the need to act on this, and I also think it's important that public opinion is on our side if something like this were to happen.

@jkarla5539 It can, technically speaking, in a very strict sense, but its uses are far more restricted than what they are proposing.

@arbaran01 I would say that the government is as subordinate to the corporations as the weapons they have allow it, but well, we can say that they influence each other.

Oh god, what we need but a internet police

@pierregravel-primeau702 Are you talking to me sir?

@adamk.7177 It wasn't "automatic hostility", you brought your sarcastic comment to my comment with serious content to try to insinuate that I was ignoring the existence of the fingerprints that are the hashes, but if you have more than 10 IQ you know very well that that that I'm talking about is not equivalent to them, so you want what, special treatment? I just deal with things as they come. Also, my suposed hostility won't stop us from arguing if need be, so put your ego aside if you're looking for a "simple conversation".
