who the FUCK is yoti and how do we make them SUFFER for this until they fucking regret it enough to STOP
Ive been paying my domain registrar for services for a decade or so.
A few weeks ago they asked me to confirm my ID with yoti.
Now im in the process of switching to another registrar.
Im so fucking sick of having to invest so much effort just for a bare minimum of privacy.
Which registrar, if you're willing to disclose?
I'm using multiple, with some domains not having many options. I have yet to see this but it's worrying.
only domains
Domains was a dot au TLD.
I have dozens, but the request was only applied to one of them. I got the impression they were doing the requests incrementally to give support a chance to field all the tickets from people like myself pushing back.
With the ticket, at first a human responded, then the next response was a few pages of AI slop which didnt answer my enquiry. I politely told them that the AI generated response didnt answer my question and asked them to have a human review and respond.
Then I found a more expensive Australian registrar ventraip. They at least claimed to have 24/7 human support. I transferred the offending domain.
Onlydomains idiots replied a week later saying "uh, it looks like this domain has been transferred away, and that was the only one we had requested ID for at this time, so you dont need to do anything for now i guess."
Idiots.
I doubt their support team has any control over the situation. It's honestly surprising you got the final email.
My enquiry was to see whether I could provide business details instead of confirming my identity.
The eligibility criteria is either an Australian resident individual or an Australian company.
They said I could transfer to a company but it costs $200.
I was trying to get them to tell me whether that was their fee or the regulator auda. Support didnt comprehend the question.
based of you to bail on those shitbags, honestly :D
i hope a lot of places lose a ton of business because of Yoti specifically. I hope it hurts and I hope they know why it hurts.
I left PayPal because they asked for a video instead of a proper method of verification.
I'm just old enough to get cranky about silly things that aren't important to other people I guess.
The principal of the matter is in fact quite important and not silly at all. If we don't stand up to protect our privacy in small ways, they will proceed to violate our privacy in larger and larger ways.
Yes, but we also have to function in a world that is hostile to people who value privacy.
Like at some point i want to just be able to live without defending this nebulous intangible ideal.
Perhaps there will be a future generation that saves IPv6 addresses like we do phone numbers.
But then the ISP will ask for Yoti 🤦
Yoti is a British company headquartered in London that operates age verification and digital identity services
Don't the Brits have very strong defamation laws? Seems like an easy lawsuit to win.
I mean.. GrapheneOS is here to do exactly the opposite of that. Lol. I mean... Fuck Yoti but like ¯\(ツ)/¯
Are you implying that they put the vulnerability there? What is even your point? As far as I know they were the first ones to have a fix for that issue but apparently that means that they're inherently insecure. Like seriously, do you even have any idea what you're talking about???
You are correct I believe. My understanding was that graphene blocked an api or something like that to address the vulnerability..?
Okay I'm just gonna say it. So what?
And you have anything other vibes? No. No you do not.
Or are you gonna pull the old "do your own research line" cause you think it makes you sound smart?
I see what you're saying. I'm partial to Graphene but I am picking up what you're putting down.
I'm not opposed to old school devices but realistically they're impractical in today's world.
I used to use flip phones. While cheap, too much of the world expects you to have a smartphone.
Well that explains a lot. Fucking nanny state.
I figure that the authorities will get annoyed if they keep receiving false positives from this company
They don't seem annoyed by their own false positives when they classify anyone who opposes genociding Palestinians as a terrorist. The UK Government seems quite happy with these heavy-handed tactics for the oppression of politically inconvenient people.
Zionist scum.
Israel is responsible for genociding Palestine and Britain is guilty for supporting it with arms sales.
Fuck me, that's one of the worst takes I've seen in a while. Figured you'd be from Feddit with rhetoric like that. Must be German.
Ah, well. A .world loser posts a shit take, must be a day ending in y.
We're out here opposing genocide and the best you can do is calling us pedophiles and calling all Muslims terrorists. Pathetic.
I figure you'd recognize a genocide when you saw one, being German and all. Guess you're doing the same thing they did during the war, deny it and pretend it's not happening. They deserved it anyways, right? /s
Fuck off and tell your AfD buddies someone was mean to you on the internet.
I think you're just feeding a troll
Probably.
the ones who dream of having children to rape are conservatoid chud shit sucking scumbag wastes of skin. just LAST MONTH ALONE there were more than 30 arrests of pedophiles and they were ALL RIGHT-WING.
so yeah hide the children from all of them.
innit funny how the people crying "think of the children" are the exact people you want thinking of children A WHOLE THE FUCK LOT LESS, ACTUALLY
The one thing I'm curious about at this point is:
Who the fuck even asked
I don't give even half a solitary wet shart what dirtbag boomers were ostracized thirty nine years ago for doing.
When you find out there are pedophiles parasitically infesting your organization, you carve them out and discard them like the festering cancer they are. Apparently the dipshits who were in charge back then took seven years to realize they had an infestation and purge it. What a shame that same virulent scourge has been operating in the right wing and centrist parties of the United States ALSO since the Reagan Administration and STILL HAVEN'T BEEN SCOURED OUT AND STERILIZED EVEN NOW.
GET. WITH. THE.
F U C K I N G
PROGRAM.
IT'S NOT 1987 ANYMORE.
HIT THEM IN THE PRESENT WHERE THEY ACTUALLY ARE INSTEAD OF WHERE THEY AREN'T ANYMORE.
Islamophobic POS.
You've got nothing but racist stereotypes.
