The BBC — the BBC! — just published an article detailing the massive problems with age-verification laws in the US. If you're unsure where they issues are, or know someone who is, it's a good place to start. bbc.com/future/article…

The governor of California just ordered all encampments destroyed KNOWING probably better than anyone how short on shelter space California is. All pretenses of care are off. People will very literally die because of this executive order.

Supporters of the #KOSA have tried to bury this video of Sen. Marsha Blackburn saying explicitly she wants to use it to censor transgender content online. Would be a real shame if it went viral again while they're debating this on the Senate floor... StopKOSA.com

THREAD: We are expecting a FINAL SENATE VOTE on the dangerous Kids Online Safety Act censorship bill today or tmw. This DOES NOT mean the fight is over. We can still stop or fix #KOSA in the House. But it's a crucial time to call your lawmakers. Read on StopKOSA.com

We have a right to express ourselves online — but the Senate is voting soon on a bill that would stifle free speech and leave marginalized youth vulnerable to censorship and surveillance. Tell your senator to vote NO on the Kids Online Safety Act now. action.aclu.org/send-message/c…

This bill is up for a vote in the Senate as soon as tomorrow. It's almost certain to pass. But we still have a chance to stop it in the House. Everyone who cares about safety and dignity for trans kids needs to call their lawmakers right now. StopKOSA.com

#KOSA does not just regulate the "design" of social media platforms. If it did, civil liberties groups would be fine with it. But the duty of care covers "content recommendation." That's what makes it a censorship bill. It's SESTA/FOSTA all over again StopKOSA.com

The dangerous censorship bill known as the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) just passed the Senate. This bill will make kids less safe by giving the government power to dictate what content younger users can see online. We can still stop it in the House: StopKOSA.com

BREAKING: #KOSA is officially dead in the House. It's infuriating how much time was wasted on a flawed, unconstitutional & controversial bill that was destined to fail, when we could have passed strong privacy or antitrust & KOSA will be back. Stay tuned BadInternetBills.com

If mask bans concern you, you need to know that the easiest, most immediate step you can take to fight back is to start wearing a mask in public again if you stopped. The more people wearing masks on the street, the less likely it is that cops can single out and target people.
