As age gates get rolled out, you may find yourself asking: should I continue to use services that require me to verify my age? And if so, how can I do that with the least risk to my personal information? To find out, check out our guide to navigating age assurance tech: https://eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/so-youve-hit-age-gate-what-now

EFF is against age gating and age verification mandates, and we hope weâll win in getting existing ones overturned and new ones prevented. But mandates are already in effect, and every day many people are asked to verify their age across the web, despite prominent cases of sensitive data getting leaked in the process.

mccBeen switching to Codeberg because it's nice but increasingly looking like I soon will HAVE to abandon Github, because the entire interface will soon be just one giant maze where at each intersection one path leads to the feature you wanted and the other path is Copilot

Github's home page (when logged in) gave me a button that says "My open pull requests". Not only is this a scripted button that cannot be opened in a new window. The button does not lead to a page that lists your open pull requests. It activates a free Copilot plan and asks copilot: "Hi Copilot! Can you please find my open pull requests?", upon which Copilot thinks really hard and lists at least some of my open pull requests.

Guy explains to CEO of Signal (messaging) that it's going to add "AI" to the service. She says no. He insists, not knowing or caring who he's talking down to.
