TutaFollowing the Australian precedence, Brazil, Greece, and Turkey have now passed laws requiring age checks for social media.
😡But age verification and ID checks destroy everyone's #privacy. 😡
Learn what countries are planning a social media ban for teens and fight #AgeVerification 💪
Open Rights GroupThe problem of online harms lies with the underlying business models of social media platforms.
Digital ID age checks do nothing to change that.
We need to disrupt the advertising-driven business models built on surveillance, profiling and maximising engagement.

Break Big Tech: Dismantle the root cause of online harms
Platforms like X, Facebook and Instagram harvest our personal data so that they can target us with ads. Their platforms are designed to keep us online, pushing out content that will keep us engaged. Their power to shape and control what we see online is not only harming children and adults but democracy itself. But we often feel locked in, not wanting to leave the spaces where we still have friends, family and followers. The Government says it’s holding Big Tech to account over online...
Raphael AlbertThe debate around age restrictions on social media is evolving into calls to ban VPN services. What a surprise. Not.
Instead of addressing the real issue - techno capitalism gone wild - they intend to take away what little tools we have to defend our privacy against it.
The politicians subscribing to this surveillance madness have made themselves techno capitalism's enablers. None of them can ever again rightfully claim to work for the people - for us!

Do not comply.
Do not share your ID or biometric data with abusive platforms requesting it. You have a choice to say no, complain, and leave.
This is an important act of resistance for the future of humanity.
This isn't just about privacy, this is also about safety, diversity, democracy, and human rights.

Classic google move right there
On Saturday, I'll be talking at AMRO about why the European Commission's plan to soften privacy regulation for slop machines is a bad idea that will harm us all eventually.
If you're in Linz at 10:00 a.m. and interested, please come and join the discussion. If you're not around, there will be a live stream (at dorftv.at).
Also, please have a look at all the other great contributions to AMRO!
