Tbh this is fine by me. It's about time the US stop being the center of the world for internet infrastructure.

i’m reading through the contrarian takes here and thinking, “yeah i’m kind of ok with that?”

this would make it much trickier for bad actors to get away with everything from online ai scams to swatting. i could live with that.

  • It would not. They're financially motivated to do what they want. They will find a way around it. i.e. scaming the elderly to sign up for cloud services and proxying their KYC requirements.

    There are scamers who walk seniors to sign up through Coinbase, the KYC requirements, to order bitcoin.
