The App Store Accountability Act aka "The Grindr Bill", makes its next stop in Florida's Senate Commerce & Tourism Committee on Wednesday at 10:30AM.
This is not protecting kids or empowering parents - it's a Meta-backed government mandate forced on ALL Floridians!

We declare 2026 the Year of Privacy.
Our fight is against the hijacking of tech to strip away privacy & dignity.
We assert our right to live without the oppressive gaze of surveillance.
This coming year, many more will join our fight.
Let's go.

“CBDC is not a currency - it’s a control grid”
“The wonderful thing about central bank digital currency, is that you have no inflation, if you have inflation, you just freeze everyone’s bank accounts”
First comes digital ID, then central bank digital, then your social credit system, and finally your own personal CO2 tracker.
You only get one face.
One set of fingerprints.
One set of eyes.
Once your biometrics are compromised, ie: hacked, leaked, sold—they’re public. Forever.
You can’t replace your body.
You can’t revoke your DNA.
Reject the Digital ID.
"Anonymity on the internet should be banned." Do we really want to live in a world where every opinion must be permanently tied to our real-world identity, etched in stone for judgment, even as we grow and evolve? Anonymity protects our ability to change, learn, and stay free.
"Who cares about [flock] [car] [phone] [browser] [data broker] [government...] surveillance?
You're already being tracked via [flock] [car] [phone] [browser] [data broker] [government...] !"
Yes, we know, and yes we want to protect people from all of these things.
Substack rolling out age verification... Presumably it will be the same in Aus as the UK.
There is something undeniably insidious and authoritarian about Western governments calling themselves democracies and then censoring information, whilst gaslighting the population that it's for their own good.
If you told me back in 2019 this would be happening I would have assumed we lost a war.
Maybe we did?
The silent war, that everyday, common sense people chose not to fight.
🙅♂️ We need to age limit social media.
MEPs vote today in #Strasbourg to support real age verification.
We want a 13-age limit enforced with the upcoming EU Digital Wallet.
We want a 16-age limit for access with parental consent.
Ireland must implement the Digital Wallet in 2026.
❗️ Parents cannot wait any longer.

Tired of screaming into the void about digital ID.
I have no reach here.
So until further notice, I'll just say this:
If fulfilment requires the freedom to live authentically, it also demands the courage to defend that freedom when necessary.
You need courage now. We all do.
There is another protest against Digital ID in London this weekend, if you are able to attend.
The more protests, and the more the resistance movement grows, the better. 🙏🇬🇧
The answer to how do we keep kids safe online isn't destroy everyone's privacy. It's not force people to hand over their IDs to access legal content. And it's certainly not ban access to the tools that protect journalists, activists, and abuse survivors. https://t.co/7glVKo55Vg
Protecting young people’s online safety is incredibly important, but to do so by forcing invasive ID checks, criminalizing AI tools, and banning teens from legitimate digital spaces is not a good way out of this. Tell Congress to oppose the GUARD Act today. https://t.co/UfSB7tkUie
An official petition opposing the introduction of digital ID cards in the UK has garnered an astonishing almost 3 million signatures. It has also been announced that a debate on the issue will take place in the UK Parliament on December 8th. Chat control proposals that would enable mass surveillance are constantly being floated in the EU, and there are moves to make decisions without the public's knowledge. If surveillance and control through digital systems spreads in Europe, there are concerns that it could have an impact on other regions, which is no small matter for people around the world. From Japan, we support those working to protect "freedom of expression" in the EU.
✅Your Digital ID petition handed to Keir Starmer
We refuse to be treated like barcodes.
This is for the 175,000+ of you who stood with us and signed our petition and for the millions who added your voices to the Parliament petition calling for this to end.
