There are rumblings here in CO about curtailing law enforcement's use of this database. I personally would like to have subpoena protection of the database, so at least it has to go before a judge before the cops just rifle through everyone's pictures.
This is especially concerning given that citizens are recently being required to update their ID to a “Real ID,” which means more people than ever before are giving away the rights to their own face.
lol, no. Real ID is just a set of requirements the federal govt. has implemented to make sure state IDs are held to the same standard as passports re: data integrity and information presented. That's all. Not mark of the beast, not something nefarious to track you more than your old state-issued DL did in the past. As far as "recently"? Nope, states have had 20 years.
E2EE is an extension of RCS that's controlled by google, they don't control the basic RCS standard though. I believe anyone can implement RCS in their messaging app and the GSMA will probably roll E2EE into the standard at some point. RCS is carrier dependent (all three major US carriers are supporting it) and you've got to have a data plan instead of good old SMS going over regular cell service.
Oh yeah, +1 for Quik SMS. It's the best I've found

Ever been to a campfire? Roast some marshmallows? Should we ban that too?
I think California did ban campfires. At least all fire pits in residential seem to be propane now, no more wood.
You can drive 13 hours from NYC and still be in NYC. A sane mind cannot comprehend this.
I don't use it because Calyx is "good enough" and I make a lot of my decisions about which projects to use based on the community associated with them. Graphene has a toxic as fuck community, Calyx is very carebear.
