Given the context, I would be most concerned that they’re not asking for verification when they have some way you’re already being tracked.

You know what would be a really easy way to confirm if Proton is sometimes requiring email verification? Just look on their own website, where they openly say they do it.
The question isn’t whether they’re doing this. It’s whether they’re actually doing it to “prevent spambots,” or if they’re employing it when they need more info to track who’s signing up.
I don’t know what to tell you. Tried it yesterday, and it required an email to verify.
I just tried it yesterday. Definitely required an email for verification.
If you think either of the only two parties allowed to run aren’t both fascists, you’re not paying attention.
The only benefit to attempting to push progressive policies and candidates through the existing system is to illustrate to people on the fence that system cannot be reformed, and it must be destroyed before it will represent us.
That’s a nice fantasy. But the sooner you accept reality, the sooner you can begin to get to work on actual solutions, instead of playing along with the illusion.
I’ve been calling my representatives nonstop for a year to end their support for the genocide in Palestine. When is this supposed to start working?
It’s more difficult to run government psyops on mastodon.
Then you’re supporting diminished privacy.
Totally. You should assume yours is being tracked if they’re not asking for verification.
I just loaded up a Linux vm with Brave, and tried to sign up in a tor window. It requires a verification email to sign up.
Maybe you’re using a browser or OS that it’s tracking.
Try it now. Load up a tor tab in the Brave browser, and try signing up for an email without providing any info.
No shit, Sherlock.
Nope. Try doing it through a Tor node.
Too bad private email access is essentially dead. Any service not requiring another email or phone number to sign up gets quickly shut down. A casualty in the war on whistleblowers.
Seems like it might be for millions of people who didn’t show up to the polls. Sure feels like the outcome.
Recognize that it is a farcical, illegitimate charade. You know, the only logical conclusion when you’re told you’re not allowed to choose no genocide.
You believe the only options are versions of genocide, because you are in a MAGA death cult.
There’s really not much you can do. There’s just too many cameras in the public spaces. If any government official wants to see who’s visited an abortion clinic, they can just have the local traffic camera company tell them.
We need to ban the government getting around the 4th amendment by partnering with private companies.
