![SCREEN ACT:
-full age verification. (biometric scans, ID uploads, background checks)
-Deeply unsafe for personal and data privacy. Security/data breaches are rampant, and uploading so much sensitive data to every single we site is just asking for mass ID theft.
-id verification is much, much harder on small websites than larger ones, creating a chilling effect and stifling speech for anyone that isnt a massive corporation

No lie, this calling campaign is one of the most effective levers we have at the moment.
If we sustain the campaign through the financial quarter we'll be sending a strong message that this administration is bad for business.

We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.
