Age Verification Is Coming For the Internet. We Built You a Resource Hub to Fight Back. (www.eff.org)

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by this onslaught of laws and the invasive technologies behind them, you’re not alone. It’s a lot. But understanding how these mandates work and who they harm is critical to keeping yourself and your loved ones safe online. Age verification is lurking around every corner these days, so we must fight back to protect the internet that we know and love.

That’s why today, we’re launching EFF’s Age Verification Resource Hub: a one-stop shop to understand what these laws actually do, what’s at stake, why EFF opposes all forms of age verification, how to protect yourself, and how to join the fight for a free, open, private, and yes—safe—internet.

Not only that, but the Dems and Reps are coming together to repeal Section 230

let me guess it was the same dem that tried to repeal net nuetrality in 2017, it was always the same DEM/DINO everytime. oh and its not really about protecting children, its about surveillance and giving data to palintir to sniff out political dissdents(anything against right wing authoritarianism), CCP does the same thing, except they one-up the west in doing it.
