... Earlier in this
interesting thread you qualified Gmail as "late stage surveillance
capitalism." Has it occured to you that reputation services, whether
distributed or other, are early stage surveillace capitalism?
no.
I am not
familiar with the lawsuits, but the general solution to all reputation
services, whether IP-reputation, consumer credit, or any other business
that collects information about other subjects (the building block of
surveillance capitalism!) is consent: if the subject does not consent,
do not collect/report. No reporting, no cause for legal action.
Provide reputation certificates for subjects that opt into the service
and let recipients decide how to deal with the absence of such
reputation ceritificate(s).
your unfamiliarity extends demonstrably beyond the lawsuits. if you
choose to do some research and ask some informed questions, i'd love to
hear them and try to engage further.
