Today is the last day of the #BigPlasticCount.
As I was handing over passport and having a #FacialRecognition scan for a financial platform this morning (allegedly to help reduce money laundering), I realised we need to do a #BigIDCount and all spend a week logging every time we have to hand […]
If you want to report these legislators and their "corrupt" bills, mentioned at the top of this post, then go to the official White House website and contact the legislators and representatives there no to make #AgeVerification laws again. #DigitalRights #DigitalFreedom #PrivacyFirst
www.house.gov
If you want to know who made these terrible OS-level #AgeVerification laws, here they are:
1. CA AB 1043 - Assembly Member Buffy Wicks
2. CO SB 26-051 - Sen. Matt Ball and Rep. Amy Paschal
3. NY S8102A - Sen. Andrew Gounardes
4. IL SB 3977 - Sen. Laura Ellman
Never trust these lawmakers (D).
🔹 Age verification postponed to the second half of 2026. 🔹 New options: credit card verification and more, beyond just ID uploads. #AgeVerification
Meta is behind the lobbying for age verification/digital ID. It's not about protecting the children, its about corruption. #ageverification #scam
Convined OS-based #ageverification is just a plot to restrict freedom of expression even more *and* further entrench Windows as the sole operating system ever.

@eff the sheer idea of "#AgeVerification" is so #Cyberfascist that I want everyone to spread #Flashdrives with @tails_live / @tails / #Tails preinstalled, some #TorBridges on paper+QR and a printed out version ...

Turns out all the #ageverification shit is coming from the companies that profit the most from being able to track all your identity data: but it's mostly our old pal #meta.

🌐 With the introduction of #ageverification laws in many U.S. states, these systems use automated scanning to verify the authenticity and legitimacy of your ID.

someone smarter than me might need to comment, but I don't see how these age verification laws are enforceable as it applies to Linux distros... how are you going to compel a distributed set of developers to comply with it? And even if you could track down US based contributors, wouldn't that be […]
Extensive evidence shows the massive push for mandatory identity verification/age verification (KOSA, KIDS Act, etc.) is due to HUGE lobbying/donations from Meta/Facebook
Meta wants to destroy your privacy

More thoughts on the recent age restrictions and verifications. This might be a bit idilic, but we need to imagine better ways to keep our children safe.

Here's what concerns me most from a privacy perspective. These bills don't just verify age once. They create a persistent identity layer inside the operating system that applications can query at will.

Fuck these assholes and their 'think of the children' rhetoric.
It's never about kids.
Various Aus gov'ts - Liberal and Labor - have been trying to pull this shit for over 25 fucking years.
It's never about protecting children.
Was kinda hoping I wouldn't see the internet calving down again, so fucking soon, but here we are.
