Mark Zuckerberg is spending huge money on age verification laws because he knows it would pay off twenty fold from all of YOUR data he will harvest.
CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES
again, we can't ignore that one of the biggest reason fascists are shoving age verification down our throats is bc they hate trans people. age verification must be destroyed if you want trans people to live
“porn bad” coming full circle from being an incredibly outdated, puritanical take to being considered a “woke” or “feminist” opinion now is really funny because still it’s neither
@jamiezerofour@Floppy401 sorry to break this to you, but it's almost like therapists will literally tell you that the way to deal with said feeling of not belonging in your body is to transition in one way or another. lol,
@Drusilla451@Floppy401 what part of "i want to live my life the way i please and in order to do that i need life saving medical care so i don't become horrifically suicidal" is forcing others to "participate in our personal beliefs"? one's autonomous freedom does not negate another's freedom.
tbh the rise of moral policing in online communities directly parallels the rise of fascism irl and if we all don't stop doing that shit it will be too late for us
@RepGuthrie This doesn't change a damn thing asshat. It still violates our first and fourth amendments. App store is like a library. It's filled with vast information. Tools, books, games and etc are on it. With first amendment with have the right to access with full anonymity
@headasshead Ok and so how does some trans men being upset at a joke that ignores real issues they face causing real harm to the trans community. In what way has the trans community been set back because trans men asked for a woman to consider them when she makes rape jokes.
If you’re seeing platforms suddenly pushing age verification, it isn’t random.
COPPA changes are coming due.
Companies must comply with the updated rules by April 22, and that deadline is forcing platforms to tighten how they verify ages and handle user data.
That pressure is driving many of the new restrictions and moderation shifts people are noticing.
Expect more sudden changes as the deadline approaches.
