Well they should!


I’ve just become aware that social media’s including the vintage kart ones will require potential verification of age to protect the children. I won’t go into the political aspect of this invasive requirement, but I will include this link outlining just that. All those FB accounts will be under the same possible required verification.

Youtube will be at the front of this, in which case I will terminate my gmail and YT accounts. For those that say they have nothing to hide, I say follow the J goat. For those who realize the consequences of this power play, I say bravo Sir’s.

Should you feel the need to remove this post, I certainly understand why, It’s not why we are all here for, but it does shed some light on how it’ll affect anyone using Social Media’s to conduct their Vintage kart business.

YT video; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh7OlS5WXLU or search the title “I will leave the internet over this “...posted less than 2 days ago. So if you think this is something only the EU is doing, I say do a search and you’ll find it’s the entire “WEST”. That’s assuming Googles search algorithms allow a valid accurate search return ! This is said to be going into effect by mid-August of 2025.

Rule number one; never give out sensitive personal identification information over the internet. (Especially to companies aligned with foreign middle east government agencies that collect the data).

I also have never joined FaceBook. REAR (Bob) told me about a “Vintage Enduro Kart Racers, FaceBook group” that I should try listing my enduros on for sale. I tried to join FB. To join FB, they now require a photo. I’m guessing it is for “facial recognition”. Well, I have no intention of sending them a photo of myself. I have asked others that I know that are on FB and they all tell me that they did not have to supply a photo of themselves to join FB. This being the case, I guess I will have to find somewhere else to sell my 3 enduros.

Correct, Facial Recog is their game, Since this is new...the others on FB may at sometime be requiring you to provide proof of age. August 13th was the target date stated in the YT video I posted above, but that may just be for European union "subjects". Social credit scores are coming and this is the slippery slope to that end.

I bumped the enduros up to the top, feel free to bump your ads up after several weeks.
