@carlrichell I'd really like to know the actors behind lobbying for these age verification laws. Why the big push now?

@bennypl it's just the soup du jour in capitals at the moment.

@bennypl @carlrichell they tested the waters banning nsfw games from steam and deindexing from itch io, laws around the world for websites were already passed and now this is the next step. Pushing further and further.

@carlrichell A good post that puts it in layman’s terms for those that may need it.

@carlrichell nice words and stories, now do something about it. there is no call to action, nothing beyond "we hope this will be removed from the books or found unconstitutional". ok, how do we help ensure that happens? what steps are being taken by System76 to fight back against these laws? why is the EFF suspiciously silent on these bills? we need action plans, not anecdotes about childhood road trips.
