Lol, get fucked Google

2026-04-05 10:20 UTC

For reasons that boggle my mind, I am required to keep a Google account for work (ties into some proprietary software the company uses) Earlier today, I got the following - Yes, I’m certain people under the age of 16 are known for their use of very specific EHR software that requires professional license to subscribe to in the first place. Makes perfect sense. Anyone else get one of these “for you protection” msgs from Big evil?

    My Google account itself is over 18. I wonder if that's verification enough.

    Google tried for 3 months to get me to respond to their mail messages every day, now 1 year later I am glad I took the step to degoogle. As a search engine I usually use No Ai DDG, searX,swiss cows,startpage. Browser is vanadium, ironfox,cromite on phone . Librewolf or zen on linux laptop. Filen as cloud storage. [Posteo.com](http://posteo.com/) as a mail provider

  • At least here in Canada it is illegal to share employees personal information without their consent, and I don't consent to giving my id to anyone. They can't fire you for not consenting. We can't do business with any company that does their customer support through Discord as a result. Discord fucked themselves so hard in the corporate world. If it requires personal id EU can't do business on it.

    Ai generate an adult face, display it on a display, point camera at it, "selfie", ???, profit Scratch that. Draw a face. See if that works. I bet you could draw a face well enough to fool the detection software.

    Since porno sites are limited to 18+ people, I suggest you could authenticate yourself by providing the link to a very specific type of videos

  • I'm so sorry. :( My workplace hasn't forces Big Evil upon us yet, but I think it's just a matter of time. Whenever that happens, I'll buy the cheapest off brand phone for that purpose.

    I hate that we live in a world where a selfie is now an official form of ID. My bank wanted one the other day to use their app so I just deleted it lol, get fucked

  • Speaking of Google: has anybody noticed how unbearably slow Google sites are lately? I almost never use Google search anymore. But I hit it the other day because I couldn't find some really obscure kernel error message, and the damn thing froze Firefox. And it did so repeatedly and consistently after restarting the browser, until I killed almost all Google scripts in uBO. The same "experience" can be felt on any Google site, like Map.

  • Take a 'selfie' of a 4k video of a talking person, beats it. Or if you have access to a paid gen AI service I would expect a high detail AI fake to work, although it doesn't work with low detail.
