you configure the gateway firewall through some standard API
your mobile phone can have the same routing rules through a VPN, and can act like it's on your local network at all times
but it's the encryption of traffic that will get you, devices will need to comply with data protection regulations
data protection regulations?
can't just pass it on to the users if your redirecting traffic
Which ones, where?+
huh?
mostly from countries like germany, quite strict
lol, I just won't serve them
fuck Germany
they need to get their act together
They can probably connect
but officially I will not operate in markets which are hostile to this
and I will _never_ remit taxes to these jurisdictions.
It is immoral to serve Germans in an official capacity, because it involves appeasing the EE.
https://www.gdd.de/international/english these people in particular are fairly hardcore authotarians
LoL
by data protection they clearly mean surveillance
basically yes
Well, I'll keep things simple
unless they want me to know them for other reasons (account recovery, involvement/surveys, etc.)
and reservations I guess
though I can discard reservation verification information as soon as the matching key is received
accept payment by mail
etc.
what scares me is that I saw an english ad for seseme credit while watching sling tv....
the idea of a social credit score like that disgusts me
Eh, the idea isn't really that radical
It already exists
just in smaller groups
social ranking in an innate human behavior
it's just that the state insists that resistance to the state is a demerit
credit scores are already a pretty good measure of "social credit"
but when whether or not you buy pornography, and how many times a year you criticize the state are variables
you kinda taint the score
My guess is that as they force Chinese businesses to use the score, they will build up to a financial crisis.
because loyalty to the state is not a good predictor of financial creditworthiness
messing with creditworthiness is a major exacerbating factor of the 2008 financial crisis
it also would include stuff like how your brother tweeted a pro trump statement so therefore you must lose social credit score, which is used to control you via numerous angles
