Congress is about to make a huge push into online ID verification, entrenching the power of big tech and mandating that they collect even MORE data on users. Mass surveillance/censorship laws are being framed as “child safety” but they’re really abt at removing LGBTQ ppl, repro justice info, etc.

If you speak out against it however, they accuse you of not caring for kids safety. It’s evil

There will be a day soon in the future when anyone can scan someone’s face with a camera and their name, age, address, search history, private data, kinks, etc will be listed in seconds and it’ll all be because of these stupid AI age verification laws.

Dimwitted politicians around the world are destroying the internet with age verification laws. Meanwhile twitter has been over there full sending child porn AI pictures to everybody who asks and nobody is doing a single fucking thing about it.

If something is legally required, like car insurance, then the industry should be nationalised. Why should the law force me to make profit for their shareholders rather than taxpayers?

Hi aliens, welcome to Earth! Whats been happening lately? Uh.. nothing much. Well, I guess the most powerful person on the planet did kinda just kidnap a foreign president to steal his nation’s oil and distract from the fact he’s a documented pedophile, but that’s about it… Wait, you’re leaving?!
