@SonySantaMonica came back after about 9 months and the "Conscience for the Dead" favor is still bugged. Any plans on when a fix might happen. Been a year and people are still reporting it in this reddit thread. Don't wanna move forward into Valhalla yet.

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.

Big Tech wrote the bill for online protection for children so I voted no.

Stop scrolling. Stop streaming.

Call your senators and say NO to the KIDS Act. Every call counts.

If you don't act now, you'll be the one forced to hand over your ID just to keep scrolling and streaming later.

[MW4Liberty @MW4Liberty]

Congress just fast tracked & passed the KIDS Act (HR 7757) last night in a 267-117 vote, sending it to the Senate.

It ain't about "child safety". It's a purposefully poorly written, open ended censorship bill fill with nebulous language that forces platforms to broadly muzzle & over censor speech for everyone just to avoid federal lawsuits.

I've made few hums because there is no stopping this shit. These people want a closed web and universal digital ID and they will get it.

The solution isn't begging politicians to vote no, because they won't. It’s making our data, media, and communities ungovernable - open source tools, encrypted P2P protocols, and decentralized platforms.

We won't defeat some of these bad laws by changing political minds - we defeat them by building parallel systems they cannot regulate.

A 17 year old girl offered a lad a lift. That's it. That's her whole crime. Being kind. He got in. Then three more climbed in after him.

FOR SIX HOURS, police say, they raped her. Over and over. Driving her round Sydney in her own car like she was a thing, not a child.

Then they dumped her back in the driver's seat and walked off like they'd done nothing. She's SEVENTEEN and she has to live with this for the rest of her life.

That's one of them being marched out of a house in cuffs. The only one of the four old enough to be named. The rest hide behind their age. They were 14, 16 and 18.

Listen to the family screaming at the police. Why are you arresting him. Why him. Shut your mouth, don't say a word. Not one of them screaming for her.

Here's what police say happened, because it's worse than people know.

Half five on a Sunday. Liverpool Westfield, southwest Sydney. A 16 year old she'd never met starts chatting, all friendly, follows her to her car and talks his way in and while he's allegedly attacking her, police say he's on a video call to the others. Filming it. Sending it round. Calling them in.

So no, this wasn't something that just got out of hand. They were watching, allegedly, before they even turned up.

He asks for a lift to a park. She says yes, thinking he'll get out when they arrive. He doesn't. Two more are waiting. A fourth pulls up in another car. And then, police allege, they took control of her own car and drove her round the suburbs while it carried on.

The detective leading the case didn't hold back. She said it beggars belief that men would act this way over six hours and then the line that sticks. In all those six hours, not one of them stopped and said to the others, this is wrong. Not once.

Six hours. Till half eleven at night, when they allegedly left her in the car and walked off. She rang a mate, who drove her to the police station and this is the part that should make people sit up.

That girl, after all of that, gave police a detailed statement over several days. The detective called it the strength of the victim. She is the reason they had the evidence at all. She handed them the case.

Look at the charges if you think it's being overblown.

The 16 year old on his own faces 24 of them. Nine counts of sexual intercourse without consent. The 14 year old, ten more.

A dedicated unit, Strike Force Dungannon, was set up to chase it down and they didn't rush it for a headline. They waited SIX MONTHS to arrest the two older ones, quietly building the case so it would hold.

The moment they knew they could throw the book at them, they moved. When they did, they needed the riot squad to get them out of the houses and none of it happened last week. This was December 2024.

That girl has carried it for over a year already. And it's only grinding through court now, in 2026. Still going. Still not done. She's still waiting.

She was kind for thirty seconds. They took six hours and the rest of her life for it. Four of them. One girl and over a year on, she's STILL waiting for justice to catch up.

That's the world we're handing our daughters.

So remember her. Because the system already wants you to forget and ask yourself what kind of country leaves a child waiting this long.

[🏴‍☠️CyberTechWolf🏴‍☠️ @CyberTechWolff]

He had the courage to do what no chicken shit politician had the balls to do was vote no on these censorship bills what was apparently written by Big Tech themselves this this person is a REAL hero not all heroes wear capes or costumes protect him at all costs!

This 14 year old girl was at a Lowell,Massachusetts City Council meeting and asked if she could make one final statement about the Markley Corporation and wanting to expand more of its massive Data Centers around Massachusetts.When she started speaking LPD removed her.

The KIDS Act just passed the House. 267 to 117.

Bipartisan.

Both parties agreed on something, to surveil you.

That should tell you something.

An online group called "Operation Flockout" is targeting Flock cameras nationwide

Their goal is to eradicate them 90% by the end of summer and 100% by the end of the year

Communities have fair questions about camera technology, and those questions deserve direct answers.

Flock does not sell camera data. Law enforcement cannot view a customer's footage unless that customer chooses to share it. Public safety technology can be useful and accountable at the same time. Know more: https://t.co/bbzVkTWY1A

Any member of Congress who votes yes today on the KIDS Act—empowering the government at parents’ expense and turning every American into a surveillance target—should be removed from office.

[Hannibal999 @Hannibal9972485]

This section you see is from the (KIDS ACT) ⬅️
It shows you the REAL INTENTION on page 110. 🚨

First this ENTIRE bill is a wolf in sheep's clothing🚨 - it uses children's safety as a vehicle to expand government control over the internet, normalize surveillance and verification systems, and create a regulatory framework that can be expanded to adults later.⚠️

One section that LIFTS the MASK is page 110 🎭 where they RESTRICTED DC as ONLY place where you can CONSTITUTIONALLY CHALLENGE this SURVEILLANCE court IN COURT ‼️
In the jurisdiction provision (Section 702)
IF this bill were truly about protecting children, why would you need to concentrate all constitutional challenges in one court?
It TELLS you this is about controlling the legal narrative and preventing scattered rulings that might strike down provisions.⚠️⚠️
——-
Deeper look there are TONS of CONTRADICTIONS 🚨🚨

The bill says it does not require age verification in three separate places:

• Page 38, Section 220: "Nothing in this subtitle may be construed to require the provider of a covered platform to implement an age gating or age verification functionality"

• Page 99, Section 602(f): Same language for COPPA 2.0

• Page 13, Section 103(f): "Nothing in this section may be construed to require the submission of government-issued identification"

But every single protection in the bill is triggered by one phrase: when a platform "knows" a user is a minor. The "knows" standard is defined as "know or should have known" on pages 17, 40, 45, and 79.⚠️

This creates an impossible trap:🚨

1. If a platform does NOT verify age, it "should have known" minors were present and faces liability for failing to provide protections
2. If a platform DOES verify age, it collects age data on every user, which creates privacy risks and potential liability

The bill says "you don't have to verify age" while simultaneously making it impossible to comply without verifying age. This is not a contradiction. This is the design.
The bill uses children's safety as the vehicle to normalize age verification across the entire internet. Once age verification infrastructure exists for minors, it exists for everyone. The system built to check if you are 16 will be the same system used to check if you are 21, 35, or a registered voter.⚠️🚨🚨🚨

JURISDICTION SHELL GAME 🚨

Page 107, Section 702: "The United States District Court for the District of Columbia shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any challenge to the constitutionality of this Act or the constitutionality of any action, finding, or determination under this Act."
One court. All challenges. No exceptions.

This means:
• A company in California cannot challenge in the Ninth Circuit
• A civil liberties group in New York cannot challenge in the Second Circuit
• Every constitutional challenge must go to the same DC court that routinely handles federal government cases

This is designed to concentrate legal challenges in a venue favorable to the government and prevent multiple circuit courts from issuing injunctions against the law. If the DC court upholds the law once, it becomes extremely difficult to challenge elsewhere.🚨🚨

THE ADVERTISING MEASUREMENT LOOPHOLE🚨🚨

Page 39, Section 233(b): "Nothing in this subtitle may be construed to limit the processing of personal information solely for measuring or reporting advertising or content performance, reach, or frequency, including through an independent measurement."

➡️⚠️🚨The "Stop Profiling Youth and Kids Act" does not stop profiling for advertising measurement. It only stops "market research." Platforms can still process minor's personal information for advertising performance metrics. This is the commercial exploitation pathway left open while the privacy provisions are presented as protections. 😆
