Politicians crying that they're just "protecting the children" while doing the exact opposite is nothing new, but if this becomes law it could effectively end the careers of some of you favorite queer creators (including mine!)
Utah’s Proposal To Tax Online Pornography Is A Civil Liberties Disaster Waiting To Happen
Republican lawmakers in Utah have long been on the cutting edge of shitty policymaking when it comes to regulating the internet. The latest chapter in that legacy is a proposed tax on porn and adult content…
This is exactly right.
Age verification / online ID check legislation literally forces companies to collect MORE data on children (and everyone else) not less.
We desperately need privacy, antitrust, and algorithmic justice legislation.
Not censorship bills like KOSA and expanded surveillance.

Patrick Breyer's the one that has been championing the fight against Chat Control since the beginning as far as I know, so please do as he says and contact your MEPs or the Libe commission via fightchatcontrol.eu
They already have an example email you can use if you need it.

1. The New Hampshire House has passed a public building bathroom ban that says it is a violation of the state civil rights act for a trans person to "assert" their identity gives them access to a bathroom.
It bans them from public bathrooms across the state.

this is the clearest black and white picture of how the US is fucked. illegal unprovoked war at the height of financial, healthcare and employment crises by a rogue pedophile president and it has 3/4ths approval from the "opposition" party.
He also originated from a mmbn oc
He is being possessed by a hisuian zoroark oc of mine, bolt.
There is a reason why his eyes are magenta too. He's actually a possessed vessel.
You better wake the fuck up now. If we don't make their lives ABSOLUTELY FUCKING MISERABLE, we're going be the ones who get shafted. And HARD.
You best believe that everything about the Internet we know is going to die and everything we know and love with it.
I've made my calls today. You need to.
Guess I'm not the only on with a rm oc who is literally named surge(man) lmao
You should be able to criticize your government anonymously online.
Full stop.
"Age verification" legislation is just a pretty name for "forced online ID checks," meaning everything you post is associated with your government name
We have to stop this.

AOC openly opposed Age Verification as a whole.
Aside from the most authoritarian corporate Dems, I think they realized the free speech implications of this stuff.
Keep putting pressure, it’s working
“Right, I think it's time to take a step back for a minute. The KIDS Act is not the worst-case scenario. We hate it for obvious reasons, but given the absolute flood of state age verification laws of late, a federal AV law for adult websites would change very, very little in this country. The regulations on design features for online platforms don't carry any mandates like what ChatControl used to have, and the text of them specifically preempts any interpretation that forces age verification on social media. Most of what it requires, other than the poisonous idea of age verification, is already done by the great majority of the websites we use. A mandate for "establishing reasonable policies addressing harms to minors" is nothing like a duty of care, especially when the harms listed are HIGHLY illegal things which these websites already moderate. The fact that it mandates functioning user report systems is something I could fully get behind in a bill that was less overly broad. And no, it has not passed the House. It's not even guaranteed a floor vote. It was reported out of committee. The amount of time between this stage and a floor vote, if one ever comes, is usually very substantial, meaning we have plenty of time to work. Even worse for it than that, it only made it out of committee along party lines, meaning that it's going to face an almost impossible path in the Senate from the moment it gets there, if it ever even does, and I do mean "if". Thune's reluctance, Cruz's spite, Blumenthal and Blackburn's insistence on something worse, the progressive wing's hostility toward age verification, and Wyden's stubborn use of procedural hurdles almost guarantee a death by a thousand cuts. Do. Not. Panic. Do not get demoralized, do not let yourselves be defeated in advance, do not fall for doomer misinformation on other subs and YouTube, and do not fucking give up.”

On the results of the markup today, I’m just straight up going to post this comment from r/politicaloptimism on it
Section 230 Isn’t The Problem: Debating The Law On The Majority Report
Section 230 remains one of the most misunderstood laws in America, and that misunderstanding keeps producing policy proposals that would make the internet worse, not better. Last year, I wrote a lengthy response to reporter…
The frankenbill that includes the House's version of #KOSA passed the committee, but it's not all bad news.
Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy.
We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.
This is a disastrous idea.
There are abusive parents out there who will harm their children if they look up LGBT content

The fact that AOC mentions the data breaches of biometric data that happened with discord shows that boosting that information worked, we need to make sure people understand what is at stake, they wanted to shove that under the rug and now it's being actively mentioned in government.
BREAKING: @aoc.bsky.social just came out swinging in the House E&C hearing against dangerous & misguided "age verification" legislation (aka online ID checks) that would force everyone to upload government ID or get a face scan before accessing content or posting online.
Video incoming. This is big
"The KIDS Act is being used as a smokescreen for everything Big Tech lobbyist want, which is a national surveillance program where they can harvest the personal and private data of every American, with zero actual protections."
Remember these kind of speeches when you think about what they have planned with laws like KOSA, COPPA, FOSTA/CESTA, BLOCKBEARD and similars
This is the only world they wanna allow both on and offline
It was never about protecting kids, only protecting the project of white supremacist and puritans
Interesting interview in Playboy with transgender adult content creators. People often point to Pornhub stats showing trans content is more popular than ever as a contradiction, as if political and sexual objectification were ever mutually exclusive
This shit ends the internet as we know it. Literally start stuffing this in everyone's face until it sticks.
