"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

You need to contact your representative and demand that Section 230 be protected, not repealed, NOW.

In the UK I can’t even read DMs unless I give them my passport and a video of my face.

The last number I saw was that the UK media are putting out 154 articles about trans people - almost all misinformation - every single month on average.

It feels like at least one of those breaks through each week to become a huge conversation. It's exhausting.

If you are a resident of massachusets, you should contact @warren.senate.gov and explain to her how KOSA, and similar bills, are dangerous and should be opposed
@warren.senate.gov just co-sponsored KOSA again 🤦🏽‍♀️

You CANNOT claim to be an ally to the LGTBQ community and support this awful bill. Your office blatantly ignored our Boston coalitions pleas, so let’s see how you feel about those phones being melted. CALL HER!
This Trans Day of Remembrance we’re holding the memory of countless trans lives lost to bigotry and hatred, and fighting like hell to preserve trans lives still with us today!

Trans people deserve to be seen + celebrated, not erased. Trans people deserve real allyship, not censorship.

Tomorrow, a House Energy & Commerce subcommittee is voting on passing KOSA & several other age verification bills.

We need to spread mass opposition now. We cannot allow this to pass. We have to drive mass calls into congress NOW

If this moved you in any way, please call your reps and demand they reject the KOSA and SCREEN Acts plus the other bills bundled into the Online Safety package! It's going to make it exponentially harder for sex workers and nsfw artists like myself to earn a living.

Open AI doesn't want to be transparent about what's in their datasets - this bill would force them. If you're pro AI regulation (esp if you're in Bay Area), please show up and offer your support for this bill! If you can't make it, help spread the word!

An experienced organizer I really respect once reminded folks "you can't always win, but you can always, always inflict a cost. Those add up."
You cannot match the size and resources of these organizations that are abandoning trans youth and sacrificing trans lives, but you have one advantage they do not: an ability to maintain a relentless focus upon them.

Make it your work, every week, to think about how you can punish them.

This is DEFCON 1 priority, y'all. Call your senators, reps, call your friends and tell them to call their senators and reps about this. Call your grandma and tell her to call her senators and reps about this.

What we have here will be *gone* if these bills pass.

Mastercard is bleeding, get in there. Make some calls. Get some cool family members in on it over thanksgiving
The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

the "GAMING" Act is probably also not very threatening on its own, but it raises a lot of questions re: implementation, and it would likely rely heavily on Age Verification legislation even if it doesnt address AV itself

Your regular reminder that "NCoSE" is merely an alias for "Morality In Media", a pro-censorship organization which has been attacking television, movies, and books for 63 years. Among its greatest hits are a multi-decade campaign to get "Cosmopolitan" treated as porn.
Excuse me what? The RIAA is now funding NCOSE to file bullshit amicus briefs before the Supreme Court?!?

That is way more fucked up than even usual RIAA nonsense.

Let me explain...

Be careful who you boost. This shit should've been solved a long time ago, but we got bad actors who will use this to justify spying on us and hurt our 1st Amend. These types of folks supports KOSA, not the actual victims.

Policing speech and privacy will not protect kids. #SaveSpeech

if you've seen a video going around of Epstein survivors talking about their abuse, you need to be aware that video is promoting World-Without-Exploitation, an organization whose website supports legislation like KOSA, and advocates for the "Nordic model"

they are not your allies.
