It’s now out in the open: what’s been known in Brussels for a while is coming.
Age verification, internet controls, and likely chat-scanning laws are on the way.

Undoubted PROOF (KIDS ACT) was PAID for by Over 120 major tech, telecom, and media companies 🚨🚨🚨file lobbying occurred on a single bill 2024-2025⚠️⚠️⚠️
⚠️they are not reading it. They are negotiating the text. Lobbying disclosures on a bill mean those companies submitted markups, drafted amendments, met with committee staff, and traded provisions behind closed doors. They bought their way into the drafting room.🚨🚨🚨🚨
This is textbook regulatory capture.🚨🚨
⚠️⚠️It looks like companies funding the bill, hired the lobbyists who drafted the language, working with the legislators who sponsor it, and voting it through before the opposition can read it. The KIDS Act is a consolidated package. H.R. 7757 is the container. S.1409 is the engine. The companies in the screenshot paid for it…
The lobbying database confirms the money trail.

@HouseGOP@RepGuthrie The end stage of this law is that it's going to lead to the erosion of the 1st and 4th amendments.
This isn't about protecting kids.
It's about government control.
@HouseGOP@RepGuthrie youre anti american and worthless and you will all get primaried if you pass this garbage.
none of this does anything for parents. there are tools at every level. you guys have lied about the "problem" as well, for a long time, in efforts to push control.
Please follow the instructions to contact your representative and tell them to vote NO on the KIDS Act. The US House will vote on it at 6:30 PM on Monday. There is no time to waste. The free internet is at stake.
See replies for how to look up your representative.
We have a little over 24 hours to save the internet. The vote is being rushed to the US House floor on Monday the 29th.
"Buried inside the KIDS Act are provisions that will push online services to verify all users’ ages, require government-directed moderation policies for online speech, and even create new rules about private and encrypted communications." -- EFF https://t.co/4vVQcYPDct
The bill has bipartisan support and large corporate donors, who all have a vested interest in eroding your privacy and freedom of speech. Similar bills have already passed in other countries and individual states and led to ID scanning mandates, faulty AI moderation, the removal of encrypted messaging, etc.
If passed, some platforms will require ID scans from all users, some may try to deploy faulty 'estimation' technology that will randomly trigger and cause your accounts to be either permanently deleted or locked until you fork over an ID. These systems have been a disaster where deployed in other regions and led to many account losses and data breaches.
Discord has started rolling out Incode for age verification. The system requires users to submit a government-issued ID and a selfie to confirm their age.
According to Discord, Incode processes biometric data locally on the user’s device using on-device AI and does not permanently store that biometric data on its servers.
Even so, the process requires users to share sensitive personal information with a third-party company.

Payment processors are increasingly restricting adult content creators.
PayPal has started issuing permanent account limitations to artists who accept payments for lewd or adult-themed commissions, citing policy violations and unusual activity.
This follows Stripe’s recent move to block lewd projects on Kickstarter.
Private companies are enforcing stricter content rules that go beyond legal requirements. Many independent creators are forced to find alternatives like crypto.
Don’t buy this. They did a full demonstration and reveal the way it was because they thought it looked great. If it looked bad, they would’ve just waited to have the devs show off how good it could look. GenAI isn’t here to produce art. It’s tricking you into thinking it is.
BREAKING CENSORSHIP NEWS:
SubscribeStar has now bent the knee and has now started restricting fictional content on their site like Patreon did years ago
The reason this happened in 2018 was because of Payment Processors putting pressure on them. Could be the same reason
So let me Summarize the situation:
>Patreon starts censoring fictional content in 2018
>Payment Processors like VISA caused it
>Patreon is extremely censorship heavy with their platform now and will ban you over nothing
>SubscriberStar becomes the alternative for artists and content creators
>SubscriberStar starts censoring fictional content in 2026
You all see the pattern?
Breaking Censorship News:
Hackers allegedly expose code that was being used for age-verification that Discord was going to use
"Persona's exposed code compares your selfie to watchlist photos using facial recognition, screens you against 14 categories of adverse media from mentions of terrorism to espionage, and tags reports with codenames from active intelligence programs consisting of public-private partnerships"
Yea it has to be brought back up because people like to conveniently forget.
DOA has been harassed by people who don't truly love the franchise for a long time, chipping away at the very life of the game.
It really is a shame that all these people turn a blind eye to the very obvious injustice of how the series has been brutally pushed around for many years now.
Why do you think that DOAXVV and DOAX: Prism arent in America? People want these games, but people in esports, FIghting Game Community and "journalists" have helped create this divide.
Here's a summary:
- We have always been spying on you
- We don't really care what you think
- Our investors will shovel billions into us anyways for your information
- Please forget that time a few months ago we leaked all your information
- Please buy nitro
