Or is it mainly social media companies?<br/>That would certainly undermine my original argument if Apple was actively supporting this legislation rather than simply meeting their legal obligations.<br/><br/>Thanks 2026-03-25T02:47:48Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszy7s3ae4k9n5zfpa26rk9ehxf92zpc5zmv0zamcxkuf22czusxcczyp557uw939vvclu4xqq9nyg793cehyg4atzymnpxkxp6zv7jyhesuf5n45c In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswsj5q8hctu5ar6eyd38vsmh5jrgx2rdk436mlp3y8f06z8uk4fwgyxx2zd'>nevent1q…x2zd</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The problem isn&#39;t Apple. [The UK government is requiring all companies to perform such age checks](<a href="https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/to-read-this--please-upload-photo-id">https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/to-read-this--please-upload-photo-id</a> ), and many other places like the EU and California are following suit. Companies - and even open source projects - have to obey the law, even if they or their users disagree with it.<br/>The law doesn&#39;t specifically require companies ask for credit cards - and that&#39;s a pretty poor way to handle age verification. However, other methods also are bad for their own reasons, requiring users to either submit to a racist and invasive face scan, or provide an ID.<br/><br/>Apple and Microsoft are horrible companies, but for other reasons. Moreover, as we are seeing with California, open source operating systems are *also* required to comply. Software developers should not and can not simply pick and choose what laws they obey.<br/>Its unfair to blame them for the UK&#39;s poorly written mass surveillance and censorship legislation. The blame lies with the UK government, and with every other government mandating this. 2026-03-25T02:10:33Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqst34wn0s56swszeehpff0rz2ac342nzd2a0czk9n0pmty4agu8gjqzyp557uw939vvclu4xqq9nyg793cehyg4atzymnpxkxp6zv7jyhesua0le34 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgp3e0rljgg3uzpscjmpalwt23syxxa5pzmwz37rgde2a7fl2a8jc96nlu9'>nevent1q…nlu9</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>megalodon.jp can archive snapshots from archive.today, albeit at a really weird aspect ratio and zoomed out.<br/>Sadly I&#39;m not aware of any great alternatives, since AT was able to archive a lot of things the Wayback Machine and others couldn&#39;t.<br/>I just figured I would let you and others know.
