So, OS-level age-gating is going federal, which will effectively kill your rights to device ownership and what's left of free speech and expression.

Enjoy your free speech while you still have it because this is a clear attempt to erase that right.

SOPA never died, it just went into hiding until time to reemerge, and now's that time, this is basically SOPA in a save the kids trenchcoat.

They can’t even arrest the pedophiles in government but they want to mass surveil us for everything.

The rules have always been for us, not for them.

The police are enforcers for the elites, they don't stop crime, they extract fines from people and provide a deterrent to anyone standing up for themselves.

I know but we outnumber them a million to one so we don’t actually have to put up with this

That's because we are dangerous (to the rich's interests)

Yes. I suspect this is all because we successfully arrested Epstein.

They worry we won't actually stand for their kidnapping and raping our kids, unless they strengthen their grip.

Those are not contrary, but complementary things.

Yea so you quit taking badly about the pedophiles in government.

[-] HertzDentalBar 4 points 1 day ago

That would require them to arrest themselves, because everyone in the roles that deal with that are themselves pedophiles.
