Linux Hardware Maker System76 Speaks Out on Age Verification "With New York's bill, liberty is lost," says System76 CEO, Carl Richell. Plus: MidnightBSD will no longer be available in Brazil, California, Colorado, New York, & Illinois.

We’re saddened to hear of the passing of Yoshiharu Tsuge at the age of 88. A true legend of manga, his influence is still deeply felt today. He was the creator of works such as Nejishiki, Muno no Hito, Numa, Chiko, Akai Hana...

RIP Yoshiharu Tsuge ;___; (1937-2026) news.web.nhk/newsweb/na/na-…

People don't realize this type of "age verification" is defacto ID verification and "banning kids under 16" from the internet means unprecedented mass surveillance and the complete removal of anonymous speech and access to information online.

Polling USA Nah that’s the parents responsibility to be using parent controls on all social media for their children. They buy the devices, they also are liable for its usage. It is not the Gov or big techs responsibility. You had kids, so raise them.

Fuck no. I am NOT handing over my identification card just to have a voice in the public square.

BAD news. Gov Pritzker says "social media companies" but it's one, namely Meta (FacePoop) that is pushing this legislation from state to state with dark money. Their goal: the erasure of Internet privacy and the complete control of their data. Don't fall for this BS.

Instead of asking people if they Support Banning Under 16's from Social Media Ask them if they want to ID Verify themselves to Palantir multiple times a day so they can spy on everything you do, steal all your information and leak it to hackers Because they're the same thing

And you're putting everyone at risk of fraud, theft, deep fakes and etc of their likeness and IDs. Big tech can't be trusted with our data. Look IDmerit, persona, discord and tea apps. 2 million american's personal records including IDs was leaked all cybernews.com/security/globa…

Age verification is moving off websites and into your operating system (yes, even you, Linux). California just passed a law requiring it. The UK already has it. More states are following. Here's why that's a much bigger deal than it sounds. 🧵 1/6

No its the parents job so fuck off

I honestly think Taylor Lorenz is doing some of the most important coverage of threats to freedom on the internet out there and more of you should be both paying attention and talking to your friends and family about this stuff, esp the threat to section 230.

Yet another major politician who was tricked by John Haidt into believing forcing children to give their IDs to Palantir protects them. Oh, that's not what he's proposing? Well that's exactly how it would play out. Ask every single other state and country who passed similar laws.

BlackSageD : The Titanfall Evangelist 🤖 Also, the fact that these people try to frame this as holding the social media companies accountable when it's META of all companies funding this, astounds me! Even for politicians, this has been a whole new level of brazen snake-tongued dishonesty. It's like saying we'll hold

Strong Recommendation too. Though Showa IMO is even more interesting as its basically this manga but with the actual story of Mizuki's life this was loosely based off:

Alright Gov Lovejoy who I know loves Christian nationalism:

No. Absolutely fucking not. This is exactly what these companies want. PLUS you are actively advancing the fucking mass surveillance state system the Trump administration and the GOP are trying to fucking implement 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼

We had one shoe bomber twenty years ago. Scrapping this policy isn't reckless, it's practical. In fact, we should scrap more. duckworth clearly doesn't have to go through these lines. ‘Reckless’: Sen. Duckworth calls for TSA to scrap shoes-on policy san.com/cc/reckless-se…

Anno was even more genius for Ritual and more people should watch it. Truly his best film (and wishing I could reply here...)
