Wanna experience one of the most bizarre and outrageous sagas from my time at @fightforthefuture.org (...so far)? Read today's piece on @linkletter.org's absolutely legendary legal heroism against garbage surveillance company Proctorio. Thank you for this story, @ashleybelanger.bsky.social

Reading the stats on how ICE is grabbing people in OR this week mostly by pulling over immigrants in cars, and shaking my fist at everyone who ever believed for a sec that surveillance = safety.

Democrats are preparing to sacrifice our ability to organize online for a hollow political victory, and this impending collapse of digital speech protections will cripple social movements at the very moment they are proving most effective. READ NOW: forgeorganizing.org/article/how-...

“As the Trump administration attempts to silence left-coded orgs, Dems like @amyklobuchar.com line up to remove the Section 230 protections that everyone relies on to exercise their rights to speak + organize.” - @liaholland.bsky.social www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2025-09...

Hi! We are fighting this tooth and nail and have been for years even though we lost a major foundation funder because of our vocal and effective opposition to KOSA. Anyhow here's our donate page ;-) www.fightforthefuture.org/donate/

I quit the post a few years ago, but now I regret that I ever gave them a dime.

The surveillance capitalist business model drives what's coming out of Silicone Valley and it is not going to be the solution for holding abusers accountable or community safety online. @liaholland.bsky.social

Let's have a renaissance of trans everything, please.

Over here enjoying some soft vibes from Astrud Gilberto and sipping my blueberry protein smoothie while preparing to slap art-washing genocide upside the face with @fightforthefuture.org

HRDAG stands firmly with the human rights community in insisting that encryption is not optional — it is fundamental to the defense of truth. Any attempt to ban or backdoor encryption technology is a threat to the human rights community. hrdag.substack.com/p/without-en...

Goodbye Spotify, goodbye Goodreads. (Hello Tidal, hello StoryGraph.) Finally got my act together to yeet these complicities with genocide + exploiting artists and damn does it feel good.

This time last year I sat down with some pretty dark thoughts and a full novella gushed out of me in one giant bleed. Anyway, it's coming out via Tor Nightfire on May 12. You into infinite corridors, ancient hunger, isolation, cannibalism, self-loathing, etc.? Join me in the darkness next May.

So jazzed to be running around Seattle this week for @seattlein2025.org—the code switch between @fightforthefuture.org geekery+ Writers of Rohan geekery is gonna be like a strobe light.

Four Al Jazeera staff, including reporter Anas Al Sharif, were killed in an Israeli attack on a tent for journalists outside the main gate of Gaza's al-Shifa hospital aje.io/onll19

NEW: Our latest report examines the impact of flawed internet law, FOSTA-SESTA and how it has caused widespread harm for those at the intersection of sex work + other marginalized identities—especially LGBTQ+ individuals. Share widely! #BadInternetBills www.fightforthefuture.org/wp-content/u...

On days like this I feel bad for my colleagues dealing with my scatterbrain because I'm on one and I could write ALL DAY. The code switch to fighting technofascism can be abrupt as hell.

Literally as we launch DefendVPNs.com the UK government starts threatening content advertising VPN services... www.gov.uk/government/n...

The real 🫖☕️ on the Tea app is that it was a privacy disaster from jump + a terrible idea... because of the data industrial complex and lack of federal privacy protections in the US. @liaholland.bsky.social , Communications + Campaigns Director (and resident cat lady at Fight) breaks it down.

Mic drop amicus from @lgbttech.bsky.social, very proud to have Fight joining in here to clap back at the disastrous age verification panic that's doing us all way more harm than good—and particularly harming queer kids.

Shveta you make that bookstore look even cuter!!

I would like to nominate our bookstore at the #OregonCountryFair for a Cutest Ever Award. The best part: some handy book lovers decided to spend **days** making it look this good without our even asking, I just walked up and a butterfly shelf was going in!!

One of the most deserving people in my known universe. Congrats to AWARD WINNING author @davegoodman.bsky.social! May yours be the first trophy of many to bless the halls of the Writers of Rohan, my friend.

Just launched: a toolkit for storytellers who want to confront the encroachment of fascist AI surveillance tech. 👏

Instead of lowering grocery prices, taking on Big Tech or stopping data broker fueled murders like what we saw in Minnesota, the FTC is picking on trans kids. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

DWeb, DragonCon, RightsCon communities, and Strange Horizons have partnered with privacy activists and human rights experts to create The Stop Surveillance Tech Copaganda Toolkit to help combat surveillance: reactormag.com/activists-an...

For the past year, I've been working with dozens of my most admired humans on the planet to put some new thoughts to think with out in the world. Storytellers, may I present the uncensorable, decentralized Stop Surveillance Tech Copaganda Toolkit: stopcopaganda.compost.digital

Yoooooo!!!! @rollingstone.com has this great writeup of my new song $5 (featuring @eve6.bsky.social) and a preview of my new album AMAB/ACAB, coming out in September on @getbetterrecords.bsky.social. Thanks so much for listening @simonwilliam.bsky.social

Having a lovely morning feasting on the blood of my—erm, I mean the cherry bear claw from my favorite bakery. A very special treat. 🏳️‍⚧️🖖🏻

New York Times bestselling author, writer + filmmaker + co-host of Just Between Us show, Gabe Dunn (he/him), to lawmakers that support LGTBQ censorship bills: “KOSA, age verification mandates, or attacks on Section 230—are sinister attacks designed to silence queer + trans people …"

NEW: WaPo has a letter we organized from thousands of LGBTQ ppl (including prominent artists like @lillywachowski.bsky.social @kathleenhanna.bsky.social @rosemontoya.bsky.social) telling politicians: DON'T COME TO PRIDE if you support censorship bills like KOSA www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"FFTF, led by queer and transgender women, said they hired the billboard truck because they wanted to highlight how KOSA could censor & limit access to resources like gender-affirming care and reproductive health for vulnerable youths, particularly trans kids." ctmirror.org/2025/06/17/k...

You want a list of who enabled and expidited the murders of those MN lawmakers? Step 1: Go on LinkedIn and find every employee of a data broker. Step 2: That's it. That's the list.

My colleague @liaholland.bsky.social created this @fightforthefuture.org tool making it easy for you to write to your legislators and demand they stop data brokers from enabling abuse: www.fightforthefuture.org/actions/data....

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Just said aloud "wait no I need some comfort @garbageday.email" when I minimized my inbox. 😬

Reskeet this if you want @blumenthal.senate.gov to stop introducing crappy censorship bills that make kids less safe while praising Elon Musk as a "free speech champion" (we are driving this billboard around Hartford, CT right now)

I'll rise and SHINE at 5 am on a Monday to stir the shit and call out a hypocrite. @blumenthal.senate.gov's betraying the LGBTQ+ community with #KOSA and we aren't gonna let that slide. If you wanna throw down too + you're queer: actionnetwork.org/petitions/yo... If you aren't: www.stopkosa.com

Hey Bluesky! Your replies to this skeet from @blumenthal.senate.gov announcing the reintroduction of KOSA (a terrible censorship bill) were so damn good that we threw them on a billboard that's currently driving around his office in Connecticut. www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2025-06...

Yeah it's really something to see a U.S. senator being hit with the same impossible compliance demands that the cops scream at people before shooting them during a stop
