Plus Apple has their Web Tokens which are not being fought against which means Google will be desperate to get in on the pie that Apple is getting away with even if it means waiting and coming up with a different name for it. It's still coming. Web DRM and person specific tracking is just around the bend once we get exhausted and distracted enough. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FaceDeer@kbin.social 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Then I guess I won't see whatever websites decide to use it (until it's cracked).

Shitty choice. The only solution I can see it robust moderation tools on a platform like Lemmy. AI still gets to read everything but at least individuals/communities/instances can be blocked for bad behaviour. What altertatives do we have right now? permalink fedilink source parent
