@jifferey We need this to be law

@Acceletor4882 Sadly he's kinda a fraud, he's cool but uh, yeah...

The internet might be over.

I am not talking about the corporate, ad-filled internet. I mean the real one. The one you use to talk with your friends, find niche communities, and freely share ideas. The way you access and interact with the digital world is about to change forever if we don't speak up right now.

The U.S. House of Representatives just passed the KIDS Act. Do not let the well-intentioned name fool you. This massive legislative package is a wolf in sheep’s clothing that could potentially cause an unfathomable amount of damage to the privacy, security, and free speech of every single citizen in the United States.

Major civil liberties and digital rights organizations, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) are sounding the alarm. This bill is a massive over-reach of legislation designed to curtail your freedoms, everyones.

Under this bill, websites and apps will be pressured to verify the age of all users to avoid massive legal liability. This creates a de facto age-verification mandate, meaning you could soon be forced to upload government IDs, passports, or hand over biometric facial scans just to use standard apps or browse everyday websites. Forcing every corner of the web to collect and store these massive databases of citizen identity documents is an absolute cybersecurity nightmare waiting to happen, creating a golden target for hackers and data leaks.

The bill also takes direct aim at standard privacy features like disappearing or ephemeral messaging, treating basic digital privacy tools like dangerous design tricks rather than the digital equivalent of a private, real-world conversation. By weaponizing broad, vague definitions of "harmful content," the package pressures tech platforms to heavily over-censor completely lawful speech out of fear of massive government lawsuits. It risks sanitizing the internet and shutting down vital spaces for free expression and open communication.

This won't stop at signing up for websites, or chat apps. It will extend to artwork websites, multimedia hubs like Newgrounds, Music sites, even Reddit and 4chan will be subjected to this, and while you might think it's well deserved, you won't be saying that when they start asking users to verify their age on Mangadex or doujinshi sites, or on Itch io. Going to websites outside the US would be scrutinized if it doesn't follow the same criteria.

VPNs? Forget it, they'll try to outlaw those, too.

We all want children to be safe, but turning the entire internet into an Orwellian surveillance state where you have to show papers just to log on is a terrifying overreach. The bill has passed the House, which means the battleground is officially moving to the Senate. We cannot afford to sit this one out. This is a slippery slope and we must not give them this power over all of us.

@Acceletor4882 He's quite funny in events where he does pop up in.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 So did you do the right dialogue choice to get the Red Text out of Oberon in the last encounter with him?

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@CelestineLives I guess he got deep fried by ORT *shrugs*

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Ethan626794543 You love to see devs playing stupid games win stupid prizes. And the best part is that this WAS avoidable.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 The Lostbelt Faeries were total scum, and Morgan was just protecting herself. Shame it all went tits up.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 RIP Pepe, you did good in shafting Evil Markiplier.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@BBake_MH I've lost all interest in where this game goes; I wanted Nerg as a monstie and now that ain't happening.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@monsterhunter I think I'd rather Nergigante be taken out if he's not going to be playable. Especially since he was playable in the prior entry. An extra boss like this isn't reason to come back to the game.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Ethan626794543 You know I am glad that everyone is melting down over this; because this move is unspeakably retarded. Who thought this was a good idea, especially when we don't have any power monstie Elder Dragons?

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@MemoryMedieval Karma's a bitch ain't it

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@rakusakugk Don't sweat it brother; get that money, at the end of the day you gotta do you.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 It's nice to be nice to her, she genuinely wants to be good.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Sebbywebz When ever I see someone say "oh the game reviewers said it's a 10 out of 10" so it must be good. I go brother, that's an appeal to authority which is a fallacy, that's not a argument in favor of them or the game. Mixtape is garbage despite being propped up.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 He's amazing

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Acceletor4882 And another flag Pepe has collected.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@WRiver64 Thanks for your honesty, wish more were as honest as you are.

[Lir @LittleLir34]

@Asmon_Updates The Chuds will rise again
