@gmh@mastodon.social @CGM@mastodon.scot yeah I'm Not A Fan of age verification in general, but having a list of blocked domains built into the phone & controlling what you can do with my own phone actually crossed the line into being actually offensive to me

@tay@tech.lgbt @CGM@mastodon.scot Oh, totally. This is one of the things that has really fucked me off this week. I’m 50-something, I work in the nerd side of IT, and my phone is occasionally involved as a comms channel for forensic or generally specialised traffic. (I’m not going to start portscanning stuff with it!) If my phone manufacturer decides that no, You Won’t Do That With Your Phone, they’re affecting my day-to-day professional behaviour, without having asked or informed me first.
