short rant on malicious tech
Anyway, any time this kind of scheme comes up, the questions start with "how is this better than what already exists"? Usually it isn't.
Instead, ask "how can this be used to steal shitloads of money or user data". And you'll arrive very quickly at how it's probably going to get used.
short rant on malicious tech
When you get down to it, the reason tech keeps investing in blockchain or AI or whatever it is next week is they're all efficient money laundering engines.
They have no long term technical merit, or had it stripped away, to steal at scale. And the reason companies all go for it is they're getting a cut of the money.
We really, really need to tax the rich, until their lives stop being contests using these as table stakes to see who can enrich themselves the fastest.

Despite the April 8th deadline having passed on the end of Nintendo's SpotPass support for 3DS and Wii U, some of the servers are still up and can still be archived.
If y'all have a 3DS or Wii U still sitting on a shelf, consider backing up your stuff! And if you're feeling generous and are comfortable doing so, you can still send a dump of your SpotPass data to the archive project here: https://spotpassarchive.github.io/
