Will this finally be the end of posting art “anonymously”? Privacy on the internet is slowly dying.
>>7758593Oh no, we are defeated... there is simply no possible, specifically obvious, way to get around this. Darn it all. I'm throwing out my pens and paper immediately.
99% of artists already display which country they are from
I can't pretend to be Chinese anymore? Gonna be really awkward for an art account of ~25k followers with a 5-hanzi name to have a Brazilian flag alongside it.
>>7758593I cant believe THIS is the ONE thing that is going to push me to learn how to set up a VPN. I cant allow people to know where Im from.
I hope you were posting with a VPN since the creation of your account
>they're going to show the country of accountsYou know exactly why that is being done and it has nothing to do with art.It's because of politics and shills.
>>7758606>99% of artists already display which country Doubt that, cause a good chunk of people are lying about which country they are from, especially those that lie to fit a narrative/agenda. Hell, even anons said they lied about being asian or Japanese just so they can get followers. >>7758632>>7758598Most aren’t going to/don’t know on how to set a vpn and they might block it anyway.
>>7758593>>7758642Please PLEASE make likes public again
>>7758593All of the Jap-larpers are about to be EXPOSED
>>7758632Why not? What country are you from that it's so shameful?
i don't really care about thatbut it's just taking an inch before they force their internet ID shit all over the web
>>7758741usa
>>7758593The method of connection is what you should worry about.
>>7758741If he was from a country where fictional characters with flat chests are banned I could see why he'd want to hide it since it'd give people an easy target if they ever decided to fuck with him
>everyone is a third worlder
>opt out/hiding will be possibleOh no. Anyway
obviously made to help dox right wingers in first world countries where criticizing israel is illegal
> slowly
>>7758593It's always the politic obsessed retards ruining it for everyone. Musk needs to fuck off.
>>7758744thisthe twenties will probably be the last decade of the internet being somewhat anonymous
>>7758808if elon was politically obsessed he wouldn't have a leftist communist jew dictating policy meant to dox right wingers, you're just mad about this specifically because you're indian.
>>7758816>donated millions to trumps campaign>worked for trumps white house>voted for trump>still supports trumps over everyone else>to migatards this isn't enough to be considered not a libcuck
>>7758593When will this start? Ive been looking for an excuse to nuke my account and this seems to be it.Will making a new account under a VPN work?
>>7758816Since when is Nikita a leftist?He's always been a libertarian techbro
>>7758808Don't be silly, this isn't a political move. Twitter is a money sink that's dwindling in relevance and he wants to use it to sell personal data under the guise of tracking bots. Hence why it's so painfully easy to circumvent. No one cares if you use a VPN, they just want to bank off of normies who don't know any better or just don't give a shit.
>>7758593You guys are retarded. All big sites really hate vpn. Seriously try to make a new account on twitter, facebook, etc. with well-known vpn like mullvad, express, etc.
>>7758846Even when it's a dedicated IP vpn?
If my country flag was posted alongside my art I'd stop posting my art online altogether
>>7758593I've been larping as Japanese. I may unironically need to kms.
>>7758593Indians did this
>>7758741>>7758751there's that, but there's also that malaysian that was making huge money with bbc 3d animations and had to delete everything when people figured it out after he gave himself away when he posted his brown skin in some assmad anti-white tirade cause he'd get beheaded or something
>>7759046already existing accounts are fucked, but won't this create a black market where people create and sell accounts from specific countries?
SEAnigger here. Porn is illegal. Government is corrupt. There are a lot of local gangsters. I don't want to attract attention of the authorities and mafia that will extort me or worse for drawing boobs. FUCK NIKITA BIER.
>>7759061Good, eat shit, you were undercutting my commission rates
>>7759060>>7758846I doubt it's gonna be just the creation ip, it's be stupidly easy to circumvent. In Europe I could literally just get in a car and make 5 different origin country accounts, you could get anyone on discord or wherever you hang out to make a different country account, you could just make an account while on vacation, etc etc.It basically only filters Americans and third world slum dwellers, and even then if they have no friends online, abroad etc
>>7758687>Sets vpn to japan
>>7759060Since the concern are for politically-motivated tweets, twitter is on the surface trying to fight goverment-level entities. These people obviously will have ways to circumvent this. For normal people, in my experience, making an account with vpn attracts a lot of scrutiny from the system. More easily banned, more phone number etc. verification, more shadowbans. I don't recommend it. You may lose your username or worse.
>>7759070>twitter is on the surface trying to fight goverment-level entitiesUh no, no they're trying to fight the engagement baiting white supremacist jeets with marble statue avatars
>>7758593Its really funny that the only people against this have been larpers trying to pretend to be someone they're not
Years ago anon would call you a faggot for trying to defend these normalnigger platforms, now you're worried these cucked faggots are cucking out twice as much?It will only get worse, all because everyone never says anything against.
>>7758593I can already closely tell someones nationality from their art style desuIf its good looking anime it's probably Japan, if it's OTT tacky looking anime it's China, if it's got pride flags and fat black people everywhere it's American, if it's South America It's Goku on the side of a crumbling Tacquiera, and if it's the worst anatomy you've ever seen with child sacrifice depicted it's Jewish
>>7758593There will be a bunch of honor killing of sluts.
>>7758593This just sounds like a way to make propaganda more palatable to retards who don't know how technology works.
>>7759103How? Isn't this to fight pajeets pretending as non-pajeets while posting political BS?
>>7759096Give an example of "over the top tacky looking" anime from China
>>7758593Personally I think these changes are fine, but in the current political climate and context, it is quite worrying.
>>7758593On one hand, good for some of those shitheads pretending to be people they aren't (aka faggots larping as Japanese), but on other hand fuck off I don't want people to know where I'm from. So I vote for absolutely NO because fuck it it's not worth to exposing larpers just for you to not able to have your own privacy
>>7759166It’s not for you to vote or decide.
>>7759166pretty much this fr fr, i plan on creating nsfw stuff soon and i don't wanna people knowing i'm latinx
thirdies on suicide watch
muricans have been on suicide watch for a long while now
>>7759181You’ll never be white.
Says the mutt of la luz extinguida
>>7759166>but on other hand fuck off I don't want people to know where I'm fromI hope you're not from a non-english speaking country or else that'd make you a larper too
>>7758593Why is Elon trying to turn twitter into pol?
>>7759367pajeets got access to the internet
I just don't want people to know I'm a SEAmonkey
>>7759096baited no one award
So now normies are going to be enlightend to the harsh reality that most of the good art online is made by non white people? Fuck yes.
>>7759367twitter has always been pol since Arab spring days or homo marriage rights in 2012.After the jeetoid flood in 2016 twitter is unusable, jeet variety engagement farmers will be hit hard with this move.
>>7759407I think everyone already knew the best art was made by east asians
>>7759419post the image
>Musk needs to get the fuck off /pol/.To those saying use VPN, I don't think its a connection thing. It'll probably be the Country you set for the account in settings. Worst case, its the country you set the account up in - if they store that information, which Im sure they do.
>>7759093You'd think speaking up would make a difference, wouldn't you? If ever there was a time to believe in conspiracies, this is it.
>>7758681No, one of the few good changes
>>7758593>Privacy on the internet is slowly dying.no, you're killing it by choosing to use these third parties>VPNVPNVPNVPNVPNVPNVPNVPNi do hope that all vpn users will get bucketed and labeled as suchthis is a good change desu
>>7759460>Keep track of illegal immigrationThat is the most bullshit excuse I heard
>>7759477sounds like you don't watch videos of parliament hearings then lmao
>>7759477Too right fella.
>>7759477oy vey, this goy right here isn't a right wing patriot!
>>7759460What the actual fuck is wrong with the UK?
>>7758593If you know what tpot is then you understand that basically all of twitter's changes are based on this small assortment of poasters, they literally never think about the art side of twitter. You guys are crying like they're intentionally targeting you but in reality this is pretty much solely because of Indian scam spam.
>>7759493this is the face of the bong (((right))) and avatar of the fight against illegal (and only illegal) immigrants
>>7758593Imagine living in a country where drawings are illegal. Must be some shithole.
>>7758811enjoy it while it lasts and don't forget to download and backup everything
>>7761055If it's allowing him to live off of his art, maybe we all should be a little retardedSeriously though, what get clicks is this kind of bullshit. Making some comic about how hard drawing/being an artist is or how you don't use AI
