Has anyone else noticed that suddenly boat loads of sites suddenly complain about "suspicious activities non your account" and blocked your account?
But don't worry! All you need to do is give them all your private information, your passport, your driver's license, and your first born and it'll all be fine!
I'm in rather desperate need of a job, 2 more weeks and I'll have to leave the country I called home for 5 years now because I'm not allowed to work here anymore and I can only get international remote jobs... So I'm desperately looking for sites like remote.com and two of these fuckers already blocked my account right after registration "because of suspicious activities on my account". You mother fuckers, I haven't even had the time to be suspicious, I just registered.
Bit alas, since I have no choice, I must sendy passport and personal data and biometrics (face) to persona.com or be fucked
I hate the world we live in, I hate it.
I just want to enjoy my quiet life. I don't need a Lamborghini, I don't need expensive shit, I like a little bit of computer, not even gaming, but nope, can't have nice things, can't enjoy anything anymore, the rich need more
Fuck this shit
Life is no longer worth living. I'm basically done.
It's horrible. I would also play along under your circumstances but if I don't absolutely have to, I will not send any identification to big tech companies or online sites in America. I'm swedish and I don't need to use any American sites.
I will give up YouTube, email, search engines... And replace them with any option without this bullshit.
Weird. I had to solve a bunch of CAPTCHAs and also I have a limited set of services I use daily.
Check you IP on a blacklist checker. I was (am) on one for no apparent reason. They will do that, I was refused email accounts, refused access to wikipedia talk, and corporate emails keep trying to force me to hand over personal information. Tutamail may still give you an email, don't bother with proton.

You don't need to do anything just go to the site, if it's the same one, and click check, and it goes through several dozens of these blacklisting sites.
That can be caused by how the browser is set up. If you use Firefox with resistFingerprinting disabled and the only privacy extension being uBlock Origin then the sites should work fine.
No, but that does reminds me that I need to set that up as well
I'm close to giving upon the internet entirely, beyond Lemmy that is.
I have nearly everything self hosted and once that's done, I will fucking refuse to use anything beyond that
We'll, wikipedia is cool still
You can self host Wikipedia.
With pictures, it's about 115 GB.
Wikipedia dump
Of course forks should also work, but make sure resistFingerprinting is off and WebGL is allowed.
