We will keep defeating these nasty bills, we have to keep pushing and not just giving into what the government wants. As what the government wants is nasty as fuck! There will be means to circumvent such changes, Ageless Linux is working on categorizing the methods of evasion, keeping track of what Linux distros are deciding and doing in regards to Age Verification.
We have to get lucky every time. They only have to get lucky once.
its almost like our elected officials have forgotton who they work for. maybe its time for a reminder?
Abolish the 2 party system while you're at it.
Oofta, I'd love to have multiple parties with different priorities to vote for. That would be a huge ask, figuring that out for the American political system would be amazing.
Change the electoral system from first past the post to one of the saner alternatives (preferably https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote) and the rest will follow on its own.
Problem is, what reason do Democrats or Republicans have to change it? As far as I can see they love trading back every term or two which means any electoral change will require tearing both parties down. Or could you start with states / towns first? I don't know enough about US voting.
The thing is, this horseshit is only happening because adults have let computers - more specifically, iPads and phones - become their children's babysitters.
Have you seen any of the "iPad Kids" videos?
Holy shit, what fucking irresponsible parents.
This horseshit is only happening because Meta is lobbying hard for it and throwing tons of money at it, because they want 'protecting children' to be the OS's responsibility, not the website's.
No this is being pushed by Meta. Fuck zuck.
I don't wanna Fuck Zuck. Might get something I can't get rid of with soap and a sandblaster.
