>need to send Google a copy of my ID

Haha, no.

This has been a thing for ages. If you didn't know about it until now you are so unaware and incompetent your right should be revoked.

Seriously though, if you just figured this out, fuck you, you uninformed illiterate cunt.

You can remove parts of your ID like number and photo

>>960278

It needs to be talked about more. Also we need a "remove yourself from the grid" general.

>European companies have freedom to mine data from dumb fucks

Indeed this is tr- Nevermind, we don't have such freedoms anymore.

>If you are in Europe you can fill out Googles "Right to be forgotten" form with your name address and phone number Microsoft, Verizon and Google will remove your name from their searches

LOL they're not even pretending anymore..

Companies should NOT require your ID if you didn't give them during the use of the service. If you only gave them a username a password, logging in and making some verifiable activity should be enough for authentication, and it must be accepted as a proof of ownership.

Again, you must provide a proof of rightful account ownership, not a proof of identity. If a service which doesn't require your ID suddenly asks for it in any way, you should report them to law enforcement.

The only internet services which can legally REQUIRE a copy/picture of your ID on the internet are: hosting providers, certificate authorities.

> Shlomo can delete his himself to hide his pedo/usury shit

No

>>960348

>delete this or I'll take you to court and fine you

>freedom

GPL lawyers approve.

>>960578

>I prefer companies being able to do what they want instead of giving rights to the people

Typical murricans, enjoy working your 80 hour workweek at four different jobs with minimum wage because "unions are bad"

>>960692

Being irresponsible is not a right. Neither is censoring public history for the sake of personal paranoia.

>but the union says!

Bollocks.

>>960698

>but Mr Goldberg says!

good goy

>>960702

>the public

>Mr Goldsteinbergervitz

Nice try commie.

>thinking this doesn't just put you on a (or yet another) list of fascist neo-nazi KKK members

>>960707

I am already on one of those lists

>google your own name so that all your previous searches are now linked to it

good plan

>>960707

That's probably the only list I'm not on.

>>960707

And it is used to hide [A-za-z]*(stein|berg) as well, so yeah, lose lose either way

>>960361

Right? How does that even work?

>>960380

And thanks to some law passed a few years ago, any financial services must confirm your identity. PayPal, coinbase, etc

>Do a google search of your name right now and tell me what did you find?

Nice bait
