There is literally a bipartisan effort by the US government and several state governments to push for OS level age verification.

This WILL hurt minorities!

This WILL hurt digital freedom!

This WILL hurt children!

This WILL hurt you!

It's digital surveillance.

It will be used to track you down, it will be used to to sell you, it will be used to spy on you, it will be used to prosecute you for things you do in private that don't hurt anybody.

Call your representatives! E-mail them! Contact them however you can!

Tell them to vote no! I don't care if it seems futile!

The fascist state will not be defeated just by voting out Republicans! The fascist state is here! It is bipartisan!

Does anyone on the fediverse either work on the #gmail team at #Google or know someone who does? I am looking for an email address that would go to a human employee that I can report real problems to. I have a bug report that should easily identify a spammer that sent 10,000+ spam emails through gmail last week. I have sent many reports through the abuse form previously, but those do not seem to result in any response or a solution to the problems that I report.

Negative PID

Government bans don't stop kids from getting online. They just push them into the unmonitored dark corners of the web where they are actually in more danger.

These laws strip away your rights as a parent and hand control to the state.

Trust Canadian parents, not bureaucrats.
