As age verification laws proliferate around the world, people have predictably turned to VPNs to protect their privacy. Instead of taking this as a sign that surveillance isn't popular, lawmakers have decided they might as well ban VPNs altogether. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
Lawmakers Want to Ban VPNs—And They Have No Idea What They're Doing
Remember when you thought age verification laws couldn't get any worse? Well, lawmakers in Wisconsin, Michigan, and beyond are about to blow you away.It's unfortunately no longer enough to force

Y'all, watching the EU pass this so fucking quick has me scared for KOSA. These shitheads are doing things so fast to try and gain control of all of us. We need to be VERY LOUD.
#SaveSpeech

if you are in the EU you should be FURIOUS with your leaders for pushing this through in such an undemocratic manner.

continue to raise your voices and contact your representatives. demand that Chat Control be put down for good.

We need to outweight any of the crazy motherfuckers that want to repeal section 230.

And we need to make it real visible that any attempt at passing any of these laws or anything similar in any other country will be received with enough rage that their careers as politicians will end.
#SaveSpeech

KOSA and the Stop CSAM act are both extremely high priority

Lawmakers are looking to repeal section 230 and they are getting phone calls ENCOURAGING reps to do so!

We need to call and drown out the opposition so we can save a free and open internet!

Please contact your representatives about KOSA!

Phone calls, emails, letters, whatever option works best for you! But choose what works best and send a LOT of them until this legislation is put down!
🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

Backed by the Heritage Foundation and Big Tech, KOSA will force everyone to upload their ID to access the internet. In an age when Palantir has direct ties to ICE, where technofascists are in power and want to eliminate and censor everything, we CANNOT allow KOSA to pass.

It NEEDS mass pushback.

Once again, there is an ACLU petition specifically made to stop Mastercard from unlawfully policing adult content. It’s getting pretty grim for us out there. Please sign and/or spread the word.

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy.
Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

Keep calling your reps! Hold their feet to the fire! We don't want what the UK has with their "Online Safety Bill" chaos, and the Discord data breach only proved that not only is our free speech at stake, but our privacy too. These tips could help if your rep is a Replican or Democrat. #SaveSpeech

I don't make posts. This is not my preferred social media platform but a supplement for Tumblr. My Tumblr account has just gotten terminated a few hours ago and I am... ill-at-ease. I've submitted an appeal through Support and replied to the auto email so now I wait. I'm posting this to vent tho.
