i wrote another essay in the youtube comment section. copy-pasting it just cuz i can lul
social media bans are just a grab for your personal data. to prove you are above 16 you'll have to fork over your government id to a third party website that may or may not actually delete the data after they 'verify' you. (conveniently, this fact is left out of any polls that ask, "do you support banning kids from social media?" - a lot of people do. but a lot of those people do not in fact support uploading their government ids to 'verify' their age, or digital ids, etc so it's a useless statistic really, but it's one a government can point to and say 'look! the people agree!') you won't know until they get hacked & you see weird behavior going on with regards to strange phone calls about bank accounts you didn't set up, etc. who is any safer for that?
it's also ineffective, takes choice away from parents' regarding what their kids can or cannot handle while at the same time kids will just migrate to less moderated websites, and to any liberal who thinks it's a good idea: what the libs put in place, another party can use against you. like, duh? you don't want 'your' side to have powers you don't want to see used against you if your worst nightmare of a candidate gets in! use your heads.
also it's a stepping stone to digital id and eroding your choice of staying anonymous online. no thanks! people are crazy! i don't need some unhinged lunatic hunting me for sport because i said something they don't like on the internet! i've seen people do this over clashing opinions on CARTOONS…
like, do people say some hateful things online? sure. but like, even youtube has a BLOCK FEATURE. BLOCK THOSE PEOPLE. wow so ez. sure sure, it might feel nice and tingly if someone spouting some hateful things gets their comeuppance but um. look to our southern neighbor. it only takes one election cycle for the government to start demonizing trans people, for example. do you really want to make it easier for them to find those people? lol??
and then there's the fact that if this "id verification" nonsense spreads far enough it will just become the default. there are still many, many countries where just being gay is illegal. there are countries where being certain religions is scrutinized, or being indigenous, etc, etc. if online anonymity is eroded completely they won't be able to seek online community anymore. among everything else, id verification is homophobic.
i've also seen an uptick in "your account has been compromised! please give your id so we can verify that you're you" scams. i have watched people almost fall for them in real time with the only reason they didn't being that i spammed that they were a SCAM until the scam account blocked me. and it isn't just old people falling for this, the site this took place on is mostly people in their ~20-30s.
i would also consider it a national security issue. all that personal civilian data… or do we not matter? maybe we should encourage politicians' kids to use their parent's ids to verify themselves. maybe then it will matter?
and we all know it isn't about the kids anyway, it's about the $$data$$. it's no coincidence i'm sure that they tabled c-34 shortly after carney declared "ai for all."
if it was just about verifying your age, those 'verification' companies would advise you - for your own safety - to censor out everything but your face and your date of birth. they don't need ANYTHING ELSE… unless it isn't just to verify your age 🤔
if this idiocy passes here (and i sincerely hope it doesn't; as we can see in the uk it is actually rather unpopular and quite the career killer! NO ONE LIKES STARMER, and the age verification nonsense is part of why he is utterly loathed - i recommend anyone reading this to point this & everything else about why this is such a bad idea out to their MPs) i plan to send in one of those censored examples.
if it isn't accepted i will become very annoying for all involved. this is a promise. and i highly recommend others do the same :) either do not comply, or - if you must - send in an id with all unnecessary data points cut out of the image and raise a ruckus about it if it's "not enough." because again, they don't need your full legal NAME, your weight, your height, etc, to prove your AGE.
also i'm pretty sure our charter guarantees us freedom of expression. do under-16s not count as human anymore? are they not citizens? social media is also used as a place to share art, writing, and other projects. sooo…??
and if it's anything like australia's ban, then those kids (and adults who do not, or cannot, verify) run the risk of having all of their creative work deleted. not cool.
it doesn't even have to be creative work. laugh about those fancy photographs people take of their lattes all you want, yeah they're cringe, but they're also memories. social media has more or less taken the place of photo albums and scrap books and diaries.
governments try to say they'll make it safe. they'll fine sites if they don't really delete your data!!! but that doesn't really work. i'm sure they make more money keeping your data and selling it for ai training than they lose in any government fine. if they didn't, then they actually would delete that data because the pros wouldn't outweigh the cons (but most times, they don't… delete your data, that is).
in either case if your data gets leaked and sold you now have multiple copies of it probably being used by criminals to do who knows what and YOU have to deal with that while also juggling your busy life. yay!!!!
behold the sheer stupidity of politicians trying to regulate technologies that they don't understand! it's like none of them have ever been taught basic online safety (do not give out your personal data… like, say… YOUR GOVERNMENT ID)! but seeing as our "ai minister" is apparently technologically inept i guess that tracks. like, god, if people that useless can get a high ranking government position, maybe i should try for one. i at least went to trade school for some of this. but that probably makes me over qualified…
…and if i had to deal with people so brain-numbingly stupid every day i'd off myself, probably.
Imo I feel Iike playing your favorite game should not be worth selling your identity and possibly your safety.
The whole Roblox and Minecraft situations (And age verification in general) feel like the “Give them bread and circuses” quote and it makes me really sad.
THIS IS HOW FACISM WINS PEOPLE
SILENCE IS VIOLENCE
I get it, ignorance is bliss and all, I am a victim of that mentality myself. But small actions such as not playing a game or using a certain website can make a HUGE impact to something later down the line.
BOYCOTT, PEOPLE, BOYCOTT!!
THESE THINGS ARE JUST FORMS OF INTERACTION IN THE END, YOU DO NOT NEED IT TO SURVIVE
YOU DON’T NEED THE CIRCUSES AND YOU CAN ALWAYS STEAL THE BREAD
It does seem like some people talking about it ARE exaggerating it a bit, a VPN ban isn't happening LITERALLY next month, they're discussing restrictions about it next month!
It's still bad of course! But I figured I'd provide more context!
⭐️🇬🇧CONTEXT FOR THE UK VPN BAN GUYS! 🇬🇧⭐️
Still very bad get on their case about it UK citizens!
(Thank you, @candyguts-blog , for the clarification :) 💕🙏)

so aparently if you make a new blog now you need to deny yourself of privacy verify your age
you're not allowed to see posts tagged as Mature. which is an issue considering tumblr marks any post as mature. I've seen pictures of puppies tagged as mature. I've seen fucking screenshots tagged as mature. posts about and by poc, queer, and specifically trans people are tagged as mature. completely sfw blogs run by trans people are tagged as mature. this update sucks i hate this website.
FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE - Stop surveillance in LGBTQ+ venues
Did you know that at least three gay bars in San Francisco are using dystopian face-scanning technology on their patrons?1
That means that businesses that claim to foster safety and community are building secret, unaccountable lists of everyone who walks through their doors—during an enormous wave of political persecution against queer and trans people.
Bars say facial recognition makes people safer. That is an utter lie. Take action ASAP to tell these businesses to keep creepy biometric surveillance out of our queer spaces:
TAKE ACTION
Venues that use facial recognition to scan and track their visitors are, fundamentally, building lists of gender and sexual minorities and their allies. What’s just as scary: we have no idea how many LGBTQ+ spaces are using this tech, how long the data is stored, and who has access to it.
The spread of surveillance tech through LGBTQ+ venues is a crisis for our community.
Facial recognition is dangerous for everyone, but it carries special risks for queer and trans people. Certain states are already building databases of trans people.2 Other states and agencies are demanding trans people’s medical histories3 and other sensitive data.4 This, as powerful political figures push for our reeducation and eradication.
We’ve seen this movie before, and it does not end well. LGBTQ+ venues that use biometric surveillance technology, including facial recognition, must remove it, scrap the data, and apologize to their patrons. All others should commit to keeping their community safe by rejecting surveillance technology—now and forever.
Tell these businesses how you feel now, and share this action if you can.
In solidarity,
Anna and the team at Fight
P.S. Want to help grow our power as a small queer and trans-led org to fight back against BS surveillance like this? Read more about our work and chip in here. Any amount helps!
teen gives amazing answer to what she will do with her free time after the ban
A teen girl was being interviewed and was asked how much screen time she has the entire weekend, which was about 9 hours
she was than asked what she will do with her increased free time after the ban, in which she says and I quote
"stare at a wall"
which has made the internet lose their minds and call this girl a "diva"
though she does admit that what she is most worried about is not being able to contact her friends and that she massively disagrees with the ban
when her classroom was asked if they supported the ban, no one raised their hand, at all.
one article points out that "While her response was clearly dripping in sarcasm, the comment about “staring at a wall” highlights something often missing from the whole social media ban debate: that teens have far fewer physical places to go than generations before them. "
A student’s deadpan response to a reporter’s question about the UK’s proposed social media ban for under-16s quickly went viral. The reactio
When asked what she'd do with her spare time, Isabella told the BBC she'd "stare at a wall".
British teens aren’t so happy about their prime minister’s social media ban — and one let the world know during a hilarious television broad

There has been a lot of back door movement on KOSA and a lot seems to be happening behind the scenes.
First, Marsha Blackburn negotiates with the White House on a package that would bundle age verification and AI "regulation" together, only for KOSA supporters like Richard Blumenthal and META to oppose it and question the decision.
No matter what, it seems like this coalition isn't on the same page, and we can take advantage of this friction if we continue to make noise!
The company’s objections helped kill the kids' safety bill nearly two years ago.
Yesterday, Meta dropped its opposition to KOSA after reports that it is being packaged by the White House with AI preemption and the App Sto

"NEW: Meta backing KOSA further exposes what we've been saying all along: KOSA isn't about Big Tech accountability. It's actually a gift to Silicon Valley giants, letting them continue data harvesting while leaving their predatory business model untouched."
France can enforce porn site age checks, EU court says
source
full article
“The EU's top court ruled on Tuesday that France can require pornographic websites based elsewhere in the bloc to verify users' ages, backing national efforts to shield minors from online adult content.
The EU is also preparing a age verification app
“The Court of Justice said France's age-check rules restrict free movement of online services but may be justified on public policy grounds, including the protection of minors.
(How!?!? You literally just said it restricts websites!?! This won’t protect anyone!)
It said operators of pornographic websites cannot claim a hosting liability exemption for user content they store or rebroadcast if they control that content.
It said such measures can apply to providers established in other EU states if France first asks their home country to act and notifies both that country and the European Commission, except in urgent cases.
Czech firms WebGroup Czech Republic and NKL Associates had challenged French rules requiring publishers of pornographic websites to prevent minors accessing their sites.
The court said the EU's "country of origin" principle still applies, meaning online services are generally regulated by the member state where they are established.”
Genuinely sat there teetering on the edge of a panic attack watching Keir Starmer talk about how banning kids from social media will "give them their childhoods back" because I can't stop thinking about what it was like to be a lonely scared kid who can barely leave the house but still find friends who are just as weird as you and see youtube videos where people talk about being gay and web series where girls kiss each other and love each other and gradually start feeling like that is less of a shameful thing to want and I do not think this turd of a man has ever had to think about that kind of shit in his life
Might be a really unpopular opinion, but I don't think it's a worthy trade off to effectively force unforunate people to stay in the closet because otherwise they might be harassed by family members at best or put to death at worst because some child wanted to look at porn.
You might think only out of touch middle aged 'Murican moms want it, but no. I've met with peers who think this is a great idea, to keep children out of adult only places. Like "HUH?????? ARE YOU SO PARANOID OF ACCIDENTALLY ERPING WITH A KID THAT YOU GLADFULLY SUPPORT ANY AND ALL LEGISTATION THAT ERODES OUR ONLINE ANONYMITY???????????".
Sure, I do get wanting to to keep children out of adult places, but not at the price of keeping LGBTQ+ people out too. Why is it somehow more socially accepteable than just creating a campaign to make children learn basic internet safety?

privacy concerns and trojan horse aside, i hate how condescending and nonsensical the government and the media have been towards young people regarding the ‘under 16s social media ban’ in the uk. banning kids from using social media, but plastering them all over the news and social media? a 15 year old not being allowed to watch youtube when they might be revising for gcses/mocks? labour wanting to give 16 year olds the right to vote, yet not allowing them to form opinions from other people via social media and making them rely on highly propagandised news sources? banning social media platforms when there’s barely leisure activities young people can do without adults calling the police? 16-17 years olds having the right to take driving lessons and join the army, but not being allowed to scroll on tiktok in the evening? taking away lifelines for disabled, queer and isolated youth? it’s so obvious that this was never about protecting children.
