Discord finally confirmed for real when they're rolling out age verification service-wide (tomorrow) and I've not seen a single person make a peep about it
Safer for Teens, Same Discord for Adults
We’re launching a revamped, privacy-focused age assurance solution including methods that won’t require an ID or selfie. Here’s how it works.

So RESET is probably still not happening... BUT the GUARDIAN act is!! Please call your reps and tell them no!

Today, House E&C marked up the GUARDIAN Act (H.R. 6488) as a substitute for the RESET Act. While ostensibly about parental consent for social media use, it’s really just a ban by another name. 🧵

Looks like the RESET Act is up for a subcommittee markup this week.

For those that don't know (or remember): The RESET Act would bans anyone under 16 from operating a social media account.

While the bill doesn't explicitly mandate age verification, it will strengthen invasive data collection.

And it's not just KOSA for the US but in Europe we also have Chatcontrol alongside with age verification that is also being pushed in there.

Every call, every mail, every fax, every letter and every post that you share with others to raise awareness matters.

A very good point. While calling out corporations is important, our government is trying to force av laws like KOSA and SCREEN on EVERYONE under the guise of "protecting kids". Call your reps + tell them to OPPOSE these bad bills. #SaveSpeech #Stopageverification #StopKOSA

Erii @laylalightstar.bsky.social While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with. Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

Can't say I'm surprised by this in Texas. I get that there's a need to protect kids, but banning social media is not the answer. It's censorship, and can lead to data hacks. Hope this gets blocked too. #SaveSpeach #StopAgeVerification #StopOnlineIDChecks

This isn't about "Big Tech", @politico.com. This is about our free speech and privacy, and the dangers of censorship, mass surveillance, & data hacks.

The pushback came from the people dissenting these laws, as they negatively affect all of us! #savesspeech #stopageverification #stoponlineidchecks
