EFF is right: Bluesky should launch E2EE DMs.

ZEKNOP #SafeCircles solves this by topology, not scanning:

1. Verify Age (Zero-Knowledge)
2. Prevent unauthorized adults from messaging kids
3. Enable E2EE for the rest

Privacy and Safety are compatible.
It's just math. 🧩

Hi @jay.bsky.team
Just sent a proposal to press@ regarding a decentralized alternative to KWS for Age Assurance.

We built ZEKNOP, a Zero-Knowledge protocol that solves the Australia/Mississippi compliance dilemma without compromising Bluesky's values.

Allow me to introduce @zeknop.org

It’s an open protocol I’ve been working on.
No vendor lock-in. Public domain.
It uses Zero-Knowledge proofs to solve exactly this problem.

It verifies you are 15+ without the platform ever seeing your ID or birthdate.

French Fellas, I need a translation check.

We're sending a proposal to the French Senate about a privacy-preserving alternative to the social media ban for minors. → @zeknop.org

I have the text translated, but I need a native eye to proofread it before we hit send.
