@TXAG Parents can already control their kid’s online access. Age verification for kids equals age verification for all. Most people say NO to intrusive age verification laws.

@LOCONGAMER01 Gang, yall are mad about this when you NEED to be mad about them forcing ID verification on players globally. Mass censorship and data collection is the only real agenda anybody needs to be mad at from Sony rn

A new report has revealed a heated debate inside Valve over pornographic games on Steam. According to former employees, Valve’s top lawyer suggested the company take a stronger role in moderating adult content on the platform. Gabe Newell reportedly disagreed, saying, “What the f*** do I pay you for if that’s your opinion?” The quote comes from accounts shared by former employees and has not been publicly confirmed by Valve. If this is true, Gabe Newell is even more based.

MullvadVPN about age verification for social media: "[...] politicians seek to massively invade everyone’s privacy and undermine democratic rights [...] they do not want to protect children; they want to impose control."

@videogames_EU is hosting a meeting between its members (ie @Ubisoft) and members of the @EU_Commission + @Europarl_EN < 2 weeks before the Commission makes a decision on our Initiative: videogameseurope.eu/games-in-europ… We believe this is an attempt to lobby the Commission and we OBJECT!:

🚨 Daily reminder: Most of the chaos is manufactured as cover to install Digital ID.

@Pirat_Nation They don’t give a shit about protecting kids it’s all for control, censorship and data collection

@Pirat_Nation This does nothing for safety

Any company supporting ID verification should immediately be boycotted

Sony is reminding PlayStation users that age verification will soon be required for certain PSN features in the UK and Ireland. Players who do not verify their age by the deadline may lose access to several social and communication features, including: - Voice chat - Text messaging - Party chat and group sessions - Discord voice chat integration - Gameplay broadcasting to YouTube and Twitch - Some in-game chat and user-generated content features Users will still be able to play games and access the PlayStation Store without age verification. Sony says the change is being introduced to comply with online safety regulations and create safer online experiences for younger users.

The entire political world is attempting to install mass surveillance in the name of children. Epstein sat and dined with these people. They invited people like him into their homes. There is not one single group pushing this that isnt drowning in hypocrisy. None of these people care about safety. If they did, theyd have stronger borders. Its all so tiring.

Different countries, one shared goal: making the internet safer for children & teenagers. For the first time, the G7 – 🇨🇦🇫🇷🇩🇪🇮🇹🇯🇵🇬🇧🇺🇸🇪🇺 – agreed on common principles to protect minors online. These principles build on existing measures, such as the #DSA: link.europa.eu/V3wHvG

Ha llegado el día: mi teléfono Apple, de más de 1.000 €, ha dejado de ser mío y de obedecer mis intereses. Un teléfono inteligente que se ha revelado en contra de su dueño y se ha convertido en un pisapapeles por voluntad propia. Espero que más gente se oponga a esta vigilancia masiva. No habrá más oportunidades.

@redumbrellaclub Love u guys, but please don’t push this kind of misleading framing. The bill is in no way “aimed at protecting children online,” we know that’s not what the bill is really about and we know that’s not what it does. These bills endanger kids & adults online, we need to center that

AGs urge Congress to reject kids safety bill A bipartisan group of state prosecutors are urging Congress to reject a House bill aimed at protecting children online, claiming the measure would shield big tech companies from accountability and undercut state efforts to safeguard minors. The Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act, or KIDS Act, would require pornographic websites to verify users’ ages, mandate parental controls on social media platforms for users under 17, prohibit ‘disappearing’ messages for young users and set new limits on artificial intelligence, among other provisions. Lawmakers pushing for the measure, which include members of the state’s congressional delegation, say the restrictions are needed to protect children and teens online and give parents more control at a time of heightened concerns about the negative effects of social media on young people. But the bipartisan coalition of 44 attorneys general, including Democrat Andrea Campbell, argues that a version of the legislation being considered by the U.S. House of Representatives would do more harm than good by preempting existing state laws that protect minors from online harm. “While the KIDS Act claims to protect children and teens online, empower parents and strengthen families, the bill would instead insulate Big Tech from appropriate oversight and accountability and imperil the young people it purports to protect,” they wrote. The AGs said they “recognize the serious and growing risk that many online digital platforms pose to minors” pointing to lawsuits filed against big tech companies and legislation approved by states “addressing the same harms the KIDS Act misleadingly purports to mitigate.” But they said the House version of the bill would undermine those efforts by giving the federal government broad powers to preempt existing state laws and intervene in state-level enforcement cases. “Such sweeping federal preemption is independently alarming, but the bill’s inadequate approach to these issues compounds our concern,” they wrote.
