Who's labor are you demanding there? If somebody doesn't want to give you the food they've grown what are you going to do about it?

It is punishment for not carrying a govt surveillance and tracking device. Wait you're carrying one anyway?

Does it rid you of infection if you've already got it?

Games making their save files front and center might be an improvement. The old days of them being in the install directory were good. Then some started putting them in "My Documents" reasonable for alleged security reasons. Then they vanished under "%APPDATA%". Now some don't even have the name in the path thanks to the dumb idea of "cloud saves".

> Looking in on elderly family members might include picking up things from the grocery store and having a list of staples needed might be an example

You would turn up unannounced with things you think are missing from the fridge surveillance camera? Here's how that should go: Visit old person. Check fridge. Check cupboards. Visit store. Visit old person.

Looks like a lot of european borders around me (of various govt. levels) so it would probably be good for generating a video game map.

Adults shouldn't own one either. The Internet isn't something that should follow you around regardless of how many perceived benefits you think it brings.

The options are: install the app or register using a google or apple account. Since the former is the same as the latter it all collapses down to: register using a google or apple account.

You can't make new accounts on twitter. You can only use existing apple or google accounts.

> these sites are trying to capture all the users they can as registered users before it's gone completely

With the shuttering of nitter if this is what twitter wants then the least they could do is let you create an account. You need apple or google for that. It seems like they shut the front door some time ago and now drew the curtains so people couldn't peer in.

They managed to make it enticing enough for me just to see one person's posts to enter my email but said "fuck off and get the app". I'll have to make do with the 5 posts they show without login

The EU didn't have to do anything. The User Agent can already handle everything from denying cookies to blocking requests for certain resources.

The Internet is fine and the bad parts will heal or remove themselves if we remove the actual bad thing: smart phones. The Internet is not supposed to follow you around hence the term "In Real Life" or "meatspace". If you want to be "terminally online" you need to sit your ass down in front of a computer for hours.
