It works, especially with not-so-popular providers. Free VPNs also work but many nodes will be blocked. I’ve seen it work on Tor even (most nodes are already blacklisted) before it also being banhammered in microseconds.

I’m gonna miss the awkward 3d graphics clipping through the penises. Experimental stuff like these are the backbone of future entertainment.

Actually a big problem. Companies think it simply means adding another layer where user proves they’re human (not bots) and also can’t be ‘faked easily’.

I hate it. It has fundamental issues like:

• geographical privacy breach
• some countries have strict ID req for phone numbers
• sms can be intercepted by social engineering alone
• there are apps and sites providing fake numbers, so…

Being generous, it’s an extra layer of annoyance to deter spammers. Big places like Discord won’t accept numbers from simple google searches. In my case, I actually paid an sms verification website so discord could “knew I was on $CheapCountry and bought a sim card”, lol.

And seriously, fuck discord and fuck everyone thinking chats can replace forums. It fucking doesn’t, goddamn people.

Is handholding banned as well?

Did something happen over there?

We are not another Kiwifarms, Gab or Voat!

Yes, please, remember this!

Every platform accepting loli also had an ongoing case of ‘freeze peach’ syndrome, and eventually got drowned by far right lunatics.
