Here is an idea: instead of PoW do “proof of AI” each user who wants to access the page run AI/LLM prompts to undercut the corpos abusing the pages

What country have you been living in? The UK is most certainly at war with anonymity: one of the highest CCTV countries in the world, key disclosure, OSA, KYC means yes you do need to scan your passport/ID now for any financial institution, Apple stopping full device encryption, the only thing left is ID cards and we will have no anonymity at all.

Wow that list of commits is brutal. Libre Office is dead. Just another corporate take over of an open source project.

This is a semi joke answer but I have worked at some of the big corps and see how they use OSS software. One way I have continuously thought about to prevent usage is to make all of the variables/function names/APIs contain profanity and PR incorrect jokes. I do know that every single corp has a profanity filter to prevent any bad word being added to code. It’s not bullet-proof but certainly makes it a lot more difficult to get that code on corpo servers and past legal.

That’s my issue with it: iot devices shouldn’t have access to the internet by default. With Matter it’s possible. No one is going to create outbound firewall rules for these things.

Same but I can’t access archive.is either because of the VPN

Not really, AI easily automates traditional captchas now. At least this one does not need extensions to bypass.

If you are looking for OSS support for things like libre office, graphics, bluetooth, WSI, upstreaming, kernel and more, Collabora is a UK based company that can help~
