This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
more laws from people who have no idea about anything. let’s say for a sec this isn’t even for mass surveillance (which it is) does verifying your age prevent you from actually being addicted to social medias? it’s the same experience no matter what…this whole thing just shifts onus of social media addiction from big tech companies to us. i implore everyone reading who’s in america to please contact your local representatives.

It’s worth writing your reps!! There’s usually an easy way to contact them via their website
If you go to house.gov they let you look up your rep by zip code. I’d point out that the data is almost certain to be subjected to a breach, which would expose way more sensitive data than usual to whoever wanted it.
All my reps are Republican. They’ll throw my letters in the trash.
Start looking up freely available information about them on the internet and sending that to them. At some point they will start to recognize that privacy is important.
Why are they pushing Linux so hard? Many here are already on it. (sarcasm aside, ye this is not great news.)
glad that i read physical books and write to physical notebooks. moving to cave next week.
I don't wish to live on this planet anymore :/
I use 9, so this won't affect me.
But I'm more than willing to start smashing kneecaps if it comes to it.
I misread this as "I am 9".
And I thought, "well, I've got bad news for you, pal".
this is insane, but i don't quite understand how will it be pushed on independent linux distros.
even if it'll be magically pushed into linux kernel, mfs will just create a fork without that shit... no?
They'll probably just ban Linux and BSD on the desktop and force Windows and macOS. If NK can force Red Star, then the Fourth Reich can force their approved OS.
Yeah, just make it a felony to use a non-standard OS.
"You installed Linux? What kind of criminal weirdo are you? What are you hiding? You must be a pedo!"
Because we care so much about those...
All those chickenshit coward "reps" need to be tarred and feathered.
