My letter to #governor #polis on the #colorado #ageverification bill. "I'm writing you today in the hopes that you will VETO the age verification bill coming across your desk. I believe the Internet should be free and open and not require an ID to access. Age verification laws are being pushed […]

It's not age verification, it's only identity verification. The lede here and the article are misleading that there is an age verification option when there is not, it's full identity verification as the only option.

Oh hell yeah, let's use the app that was hacked the same day it was introduced, through a TEXT FILE. Extremely reasonable. Spoiler alert: let's not use age verification.

Soudní dvůr EU by to shodil hned na několika úrovních nepřiměřenosti, i kdyby zákon prošel. O to děsivější upřímně je, že o tenhle obří systém masové online identifikace Komise pořád usiluje. www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/05/12/von-der-leyen-opens-door-to-eu-wide-social-media-ban-for-children

A.B. 1709 would take autonomy away from minors AND parents alike while handing even more of everyone’s private data to Big Tech. Banning LGBTQ youth from accessing affirming online communities will have dire consequences, especially for those without supportive family.

The price of femdom and foot fetish content has surged over the past few years. "Kink and fetish are impacted by the same economic forces that drive global markets: the cost of goods, supply and demand and shifting consumer trends."

I'm a progressive technologist. Here's why the GOP's "Parents Decide Act" is a backdoor attack on the devices you own. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

☝🏽 The WHOLE POINT of Declaring Independence was dissent from authoritarianism. Idgaf if that's federal state or local or any party. ☝🏽 The WHOLE POINT of any Constitution (fed or state) is to PROTECT the "RIGHTS" (entitlements) of human beings. We have lost the plot and THAT is why we're falling.

The 2 biggest excuses I hear is (a) Privacy doesn't exist anymore (b) I don't care about my data being shared. But the fact is, your email/texts are to/from others, your locations go to others, your photos aren't all selfies, and more. Those people didn't consent to you sharing their data.

#massachusetts MUST rethink the social media ban. Stop this from fast tracking w/o consent or discussing this with #cybersecurity professionals, lawyers, and the communities it will disenfranchise and put in danger. H.5366 puts us in real danger. Talking points update: 4/16/2026 #signalboost

#savespeech #nopornban The existance of extreme porn SHOULD NOT be banned, or it will just lead to more and more "questionable" and "normal" types of porn to be censored. Then non-porn things like LGBTQ art. TELL YOUR REPS NO TO A BAN ON EXTREME PORN www.oireachtas.ie/en/visit-and...

Rewording my earlier quote post less panicked. Yeah this is basically a porn-ban thing. Depending on how it's done it could target furries maybe. But their plan to bring it to other EU member states is REALLY dangerous and I need y'all to nip this in the bud ASAP #savespeech #furry #nopornbans

#savespeech #stopcensorship #furry Unless we start getting companies to actually reverse their porn bans, we're not really winning much of anything yet. So, aim for that. That's the minimum we should be wanting.

Kickstarter officially banning adult content now. Knew this was coming, but it still sucks to have yet another part of the internet that I've been explicitly evicted from. Digital gentrification is exhausting.

EPSU is on the streets in Brussels today in #solidarity with Belgian workers! The Arizona government’s attacks on wages, pensions and working conditions are just one example of the #PublicServicesEmergency. Workers have paid enough. Defend rights, wages and public services!

Stop Killing Games says age verification laws make game preservation ‘harder or even impossible’

Governments are selling age verification as a silver bullet for online safety. It's easy to see that we're just being sold a bill of goods. EFF's EFFector Podcast explains why age gates won't fix the internet, and what they'll break: www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

💛 Discord has to be so fucking desperate to go to Microsoft to try to get some Nitro subs. Microsoft are evil to the core and I want nothing to do with Microsoft and I will continue to not give them anything. Also reminder that Discord has not backed down on age verification worldwide btw

EU regulators call VPNs "a loophole that needs closing," as more people use them to get around their poorly designed age-verification laws. Their solution? Age-verification for VPN use.

Can someone explain this fresh hell they're planning? "A central argument for including mandatory age-verification methods in online services is the risk of online grooming of children by adult predators who pose as young users" So now you also have to prove you're not a child?

Crowdfunding has been essential to getting stories told that otherwise wouldn't see the light of day. Marginalized histories, inconvenient truths, lived experiences of people left out of the dominant narrative. It's communities, not Foundations, deciding what's important, what's worth preserving.

Everyone get calling and emailing immediately. Yell at Google, Discord and all your reps and senators. We can't let them win

I seem to remember that before Android was introduced, one of its selling points was specifically that it would be open-source and not a walled garden like iOS. Suppose that idea went the way of the dodo

I'm so tired of this. Again, with emphasis; Sex is a normal part of human existence. Art is a normal part of human existence. Sex in art is a normal part of human existence, and is morally neutral.

They say they’re not banning romance projects, but literally the first thing prohibited on the rules list is saying your book is horny. A platform to avoid!

The ban of entirely lawful conduct a commercial payments processor (here Stripe) objects to continues apace. Adult content is and always has been a canary in the coal mine for censorship; it's a very small step from here to banning content tech oligarchs' favourite regimes object to.

i am once again begging some major porn studio to take up the mantle of larry flynt and start bribing senators again
