@TaylorLorenz I generally love the work you are doing around free speech and privacy. Keep at it. But it kinda goes against your "FREE SPEECH ENTHUSIAST" description when you tell celebrities to stfu.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

It shouldn't matter who you are or what your ideology is to understand how dangerous these laws are that require the submission of state ID to use social media.

"Protecting children" is the bullshit pretense. The real outcome is tracking everyone's views and online behavior:

The US has quietly deployed 82nd Airborne paratroopers to Israel, per deployment order leaked to me.

The deployment is tied to new US-Israel joint contingency plans for seizing Kharg Island and carving out coastal territory inside Iran.

I’ve been banned from the UK. I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!

The FAA quietly imposed a nationwide drone restriction that prevents filming ICE and other federal agents within half a mile. It’s an attack on the First Amendment. https://t.co/6zZsJN2M7h

Mind you it’s not age gating, it’s IDENTITY GATING. There is no such thing as “age verification” it’s ID verification. I think we need to stop using the term age verification bc it’s an industry term that obfuscates the reality of what’s happening.

Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE

Trump’s counterterrorism budget includes NSPM-7, a plan to “proactively” flag Americans as domestic terrorists over beliefs like “anti-Americanism,” “anti-capitalism,” “anti-Christianity,” and positions on race, gender, and religion.

@kenklippenstein NYT still has a print version? How quaint!

“The purpose of all of these laws is to deny young people access to information they have a constitutional right to receive, and also audiences they have a constitutional right to speak to,” EFF’s David Greene told @civilbeat. https://t.co/dScfG1Uura

I’ve been repotting on this, there are already state lawmakers pushing for VPN bans. The goal is to fully remove anonymity from the internet

The United States needs to stay out of Venezuela. Let the Venezuelan people determine their future. We don't want other countries to choose our leaders--so we have to stop trying to choose theirs.
