Guys, it got so much freaking worse. KOSA is bad, but SCREEN is even worse, somehow.

"Sen. Mike Lee has introduced the SCREEN ACT, a bill that applies the "harmful to minors" standard used to ban LGBTQ+ books and resources in schools and libraries and apply it nationally to the internet.

Any site that has any amount of material "harmful to minors" would be forced to employ surveillance tech (biometric scans, ID uploads, background checks) to prevent minors from accessing "pornography."

You will not be surprised to learn that this is backed by the Heritage Foundation.

Unlike some of the state age-verification laws, many of which are being challenged in court, SC will be enforced by the FTC, which has the ability to levy fines, raid business and freeze bank accounts. Yes, meaning that even non-for-profits like Ao3 will suffer.

This is something for all US users to keep on their radar. Call your reps, call your senators, and spread the word to protect our archive!"

- When talking with Republicans play up the fact that this would force Elon to implement age verification systems on X (yes do call it X during the call). Elon's been threatening to primary Republicans who stand in his way so there's fear of him. Also play up concerns about "Liberals" doxxing people or Chinese hackers.

- When talking with Democrats, play up the connections to Project 2025 and suggest voters will not be happy to see Democrats siding with it.

Hi, my name is [], and I am one of Senator []’s constituents. I live in [city, zip code - leave your full address if leaving a voicemail].

I am calling in regards to a bill that was recently introduced in the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transport: the SCREEN act.

I am asking Senator [] to either take no action or vote against this bill because of its implications for freedom of speech. [insert one of the other concerns listed above]. Thank you for your time and for listening to my concerns.

I genuinely cannot understand the reasoning behind why bugs and "repulsive creatures" always have to be censored, every single fucking "safe space" has a censor list thats fifty miles long and it ALWAYS FUCKING INCLUDES INSECTS. INSECTS ARE A FUCKING PART OF LIFE OH MY GOD STOP DEMONIZING THEM THEY ARE THE REASON WE HAVE FOOD.

anyways thank you for coming to my crashout. Most insects are keystone species, protect insect habitat and stop using pesticides

EDIT: so this has breeched containment, hello new folks! This post is mostly a ramble/vent so if you come here bringing debates/complaints then you've come to the wrong blog. Anyhow stay safe and keep being a freak <3

When you read my posts I hope you remember that I'm a demon who's trying to tempt you into embracing the pursuit of pleasure and rejecting the tyranny of all authority.

We need to lay more blame for "Kids don't know how computers work" at the feet of the people responsible: Google.

Google set out about a decade ago to push their (relatively unpopular) chromebooks by supplying them below-cost to schools for students, explicitly marketing them as being easy to restrict to certain activities, and in the offing, kids have now grown up in walled gardens, on glorified tablets that are designed to monetize and restrict every movement to maximize profit for one of the biggest companies in the world.

Tech literacy didn't mysteriously vanish, it was fucking murdered for profit.

"Why is the world [western governments] all of a sudden trying to control us with mass surveillance?"

It's not all of a sudden. They've been trying to do this for years.

And people have been fighting it, for years. People have also been warning you, for years.

You were warned that Net Neutrality was super important. You were warned that COPPA and KOSA weren't what lawmakers said they were. People tried to tell you that banning apps would set dangerous precedent for the internet, and that they'd be coming for your VPNS. People tried to tell you that big tech companies trying to block ad-blockers and selling your data were bad things. People even tried to tell you that it was weird for supermarkets to be collecting mass amounts of data from your purchases to advertise to you, and that it was super weird for places like Walmart to need facial recognition cameras on top of that. You just didn't listen.

And you didn't push back.

And now we're here.

That said, boycott any site that wants you to upload your ID- for the love of the gods don't give them that shit it WILL get hacked/sold- and make some noise about this bullshit. We need to make it clear that we won't just lay down and take this.
