Should be 9-0 since it’s in the fucking constitution.

[Jessica Rojas 🇺🇸💪 @VoicesUnheard]

THEY PASSED IT ANYWAY - and it’s even worse than we thought.

House just rammed through the "KIDS" Act (H.R. 7757) 267-117, with 47 not voting.

Many of us have been warning about these ID verification laws disguised as "for the children." This is how you eventually get people to comply with biometric facial scans, which eventually leads to us needing a scan every time we want to access the internet.

They’ve been telling us their plans for a while now, but so many brush it off “that will never happen in America.” Well, it just did, and this is only the beginning.

Over 90 child advocacy groups begged Congress to vote NO. Why? This House version strips out key protections for eating disorders, depression, addiction, and s×icide making it weaker than the Senate version they already passed!

Proof it has nothing to do with actually protecting children. It’s just another way to remove the tiny bit of privacy we have left.

[Jordan | 先生 @jordanovweb3]

THE UK JUST MADE PRIVACY A CRIME.

The government wants a scanner built inside every phone in the country.

Scanning every citizen becomes the law. Refusing becomes 5 years in prison.

- The scanners would inspect every photo, message and video on your device before encryption
- Signal threatened to leave the UK entirely rather than build the backdoor
- Europe's age verification app built to "keep children safe" was hacked in under 2 minutes
- Another verification system leaked 70,000 IDs and selfies in a single breach

Orwell wrote 1984 as a warning. His own country turned it into law

If you are in the USA
MAKE NOISE AT YOUR LOCAL REPS BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.
I am not joking at how bad this can and will be.
This is THE MOST serious post I have ever made.

[Hanner @GangstHannah]

I'm gonna need y'all to wake the fuck up before we can't install an OS or go on the Internet without having to show government ID.

Those politicians don't give a shit about your kids, but they're a good pretext to push more mass surveillance, in the form of social media bans

[Ludlow Institute @LudlowInstitute]

Surveillance isn't inevitable.
Let's stop normalizing it.

[��ビルハンマー⋈ @torinikuninniku]

This year and next year are crucial! Everyone, please help us escape the repeal of Section 230! ! ! ! This bill could lead to excessive censorship! Call your representatives! Tell them this bill has little to do with protecting children and strongly urge them to oppose it! Share this issue with your friends and family! Never give up! ! ! ! ! ! !

[Chris Marchese @ChrisMarchese9]

Legislators: “fork over your ID to protect kids or you can’t use the internet.”

Hackers: “we’ll take it from here.”

1 billion records. 203 million Americans. The age-verification mandate is the vulnerability.

Hey everyone. Let's not forget about the age verification bills like KOSA, KIDS, app store accountability act and etc. In house or other bills like it in other states

[Benonwine @benonwine]

Banking apps can now see which apps you have installed and where they came from. Let that sink in.
Install something they don’t approve of? Suddenly it’s “sorry, you can’t access your money until you fix your wrongthinking.” No court order. No warning. Just a locked screen and zero options.
This isn’t about security anymore, it’s about control, compliance, and surveillance baked into everyday tech. Convenience was the bait. Dependence is the trap.
We’re not entering a golden age of technology.
We’re sliding into the digital dark ages.

[Shoshana Weissmann, Sloth Committee Chair 🦥 @senatorshoshana]

So here for VPNs standing up to age verification!!!

[Suzanne @tendermiasma]

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art, subscribestar, itchio)

TELL THEM you don't want to be told how to spend your money

‼️Debunking the claims of the App Store Accountability Act‼️

🚫Does not put parents in the "driver's seat"
🚫Does not protect citizens' private data
🚫Does not remove in-app dangers
🚫Requires universal age verification, collecting sensitive data of every citizen

Parents already have the tools to do everything they say the ASAA does. This is a de facto Digital ID.

[Hotcheesecakes (Clippy) @BLkhoih96132]

this is gonna be most important battle against online age verification.... I'm not joking. It's confirmed right here saying without saying. They're doing this to do age checks/ Steam being sued by new york. Every method is flawed. Only way to do this is to do ID age checks 🧵1/4
