12 days agoThere’s 2 different things here:
- Anonymity
- Truth (of people and / or info)
You need both or you’re loosing freedom of speech.
If the government is “nice“, then you won’t feel threatened by this and you’ll believe that it’s better because we can now find the “bad guys”.
But what if the rules change and your thoughts / feelings / beliefs are now “bad”… how do you band together to make it better?
And, the internet is already flooded by bots, well, at least 50%, but I’m guessing no-one’s noticed.
Feel free to ask over at !homeassistant@lemmy.world too.
But to echo some other comments here, whatever you do, keep it simple and ensure a botched HA update doesn’t freeze / cook you by using standard components as a backup / failsafe
