Scumbags taking advantage of community spirit.
Good advice. We also swapped the blankets they slept on, to get them used to each other's scent. Our older one hissed a bit but then chilled out. Later we the new one out, but we supervised their interactions for a week or two. They were best buddies after a short while.
We lost the younger one last year, and the older one keeps going to the place where he used to sleep to sniff around. This might be anthropomorphizing but I can't help but feel like she misses him.

In order to provide a "yes, this person is over 18" service for a vendor, the vendor has to know which real name (or other personally identifiable piece of information) to look up, don't they?
So if you have to provide the vendor with a real name, phone number, ID card number or selfie that identifies the account "draco_aeneus@mander.xyz" with "John Doe/555-4556/X1234567" that eliminates your anonymity, they've accomplished surveillance over your personal opinions and whatever other content you share. The real problem isn't age verification, the problem is they're trying to eliminate anonymity.
I was the same way before, but you have to weigh the pros and cons of having proper, long, randomized, unique passwords for each site against the possibility that your database password might be compromised. I only have my password database locally, on removable drives.
So in order to access it, I have to plug in a USB drive (I have backups) which only happens for as long as I need the database, then I unplug it. I also use a keyfile, which is on separate drives, just in case. If anyone wants to access it, they'll need both the "something I know" (password) and "something I have" (keyfile) which is pretty unlikely.
Not advertising, but I use Keepass.
Yes, it's encrypted. Wouldn't be much of a point if it was just plaintext.
Neon lights? Sorry, that's only covered by the Premium Plus Elite membership.
O'Brien would like to enter the competition, but he's busy being tortured in a Cardassian prison.
For a long time I went with IBM, then Hitachi when they bought IBM's HDD division. Never had a problem with them. Though there was the infamous "Deathstar" and the click of death.
