I’m sure you’re probably right, but do you believe our Government to be capable of actual high tech solutions to something like scamming 70+ year old grandma’s out of their money? Our same Government (along with most of the rest of the Western world) that is actively making it so encryption will be heavily curtailed, if not made completely illegal “for the children”.
Just because 2% or so of the population has a grasp of how Crypto stuff works doesn’t make it reasonable for the majority. There may be the odd older non tech background person that’ll learn all about it, but that’s not even going to be even a meaningful minority.
So, you’ve brought up your (honestly relatively minor but valid, all things considered) issues with how they’re dealing with Crypto ATMs and the scams we all know are happening every single day.
You’ve not commented on any other point I made, I’d like to hear what the Govt is doing against Cash. And whom you think is a viable solution that’ll actually do what we the citizenry need VS. what big business is going to force on us. Pointing out the issues while using inflammatory language generally doesn’t lead to any outcomes you might actually want, as much as it’d be nice if it did.
Which political group are you suggesting should get support, and why do you believe they actually deserve it? I’ve no idea how old you are, but in my 42 years, I’ve yet to see any of them stand up against big business, obviously the Liberals being lead by an objectively Big Business C level isn’t going to do much of anything for citizens directly, they always think that supporting business directly supports us, which it does not and has not in my entire life.
If we’re just here to criticize Carney and the Liberal party of Canada, that’s fine. But we’re never going to collectively solve anything if we can’t even discuss their political actions reasonably.
Just repeating the same shit over and over isn’t going to result in any kind of discussion about how to actually move forward. You just seem mad that “your team” didn’t win this round with no evidence whatsoever to support your apparent claims that someone else would be superior in the current political climate.
I’ve personally stopped a 70+ yar old woman from taking Bitcoin out of one of those ATMs. The scam isn’t the ATM itself (it is, but not in this context) it’s the dude sitting overseas (usually) that’s running a social engineering scam.
The fact you’re dead set on nothing more than “Liberals bad” without any actual thought spent to which politicians are actually in favour of things we collectively want says everything needed about your complete lack of actual understanding about politics.
Just another pot stirrer with thing of substance to add.
You know full well “your team” wouldn’t do anything different than the Liberals, and yet you can do nothing but yell into the void about how the liberals are bad. The reality is they’re all largely all shit, and none of them want to help us. So insofar as that point you’re correct. Where your whole ideology falls apart is that you’re not even willing to put words to what you actually want and who might actually accomplish it.
Sad really, I was hoping for better interaction from Lemmy, but it’s clear that most folks only want to complain and not discuss solutions at all.

Not high tech enough to go after scam crypto ATMs meanwhile the federal government blocks obscure vpns from accessing their websites.
The liberals hate freedom so they ban Monero.

Good luck with that I suppose.
“All politicians are the same” yet acts really offended when their beloved liberals are insulted.
