BREAKING: The House of Representatives just voted to require teachers to forcibly out transgender youth against their will.

Censoring "gender ideology" does nothing to advance the basic promise that every child deserves the same opportunity to thrive, and that includes transgender students.

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)

Btw, if it's not clear:
The tactic the right is using rn is to start censoring fetishes and kinks that are generally accepted to be "bad" or "gross" by most people to slowly warm us up to the idea of censoring all sexual expression online.

Don't fall for this by going "this is actually based!!"

Today is the day, the EU decides on Chat Control 1.0. Will they let the Trojan Horse through the gate and let Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn etc continue to scan all your messages?

We at Tuta say NO.

DO NOT. I repeat, DO NOT give your personal ID to these sites because they're trying to push mass surveillance on every website and this really will be the death of the internet.

NEVER. GIVE. THEM. YOUR. PERSONAL. ID.
Twitch is requiring new Affiliates, before their first payment, to give government photo ID and a separate photo to Persona, the same Persona that has connections to government mass surveillance programs. When I asked Twitch support for another option, they said there isn't one. #twitch #persona 1/4
