If last month’s news is any indicator, we’re betting we can expect a lot more grandstanding from Senators like Dick Durbin & Lindsay Graham concerning a Section 230 repeal in the interest of appearing tough on their Big Tech donors in 2026.

Loathe as I am to agree with Matt Canavan, he's dead right that "banning YouTube would be the modern equivalent of banning children from libraries because there’s a few books not suitable for children".
When I had a rough time at home growing up, libraries and online spaces were my escape valves!

I wonder if the people at #X ever read their own announcements.
Literally explaining how they sold out and enshittified the "blue checkmark".
This also seem like yet another step towards mandatory #IDverification on social media! (only to protect them kids & democratize the platforms of course 😉)

. []
As you know, on 1 April 2023 we began winding down Twitter's legacy
verification program:
Previously, to receive the blue checkmark, [highlighted in yellow] accounts had to be authentic,
active, and deemed notable by Twitter staff [] (for more information on the
legacy policy, please click here).
Now, following the changes implemented to democratize the platform, the
blue checkmark has a different meaning and identifies accounts that have an
active subscription to X Premium/X Premium+ (including services such as
reply prioritization) and are complete, active, secure and non-deceptive,
regardless of perceived notability. X supports freedom of speech and does not endorse or validate the views expressed on accounts featuring checkmarks.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:uwwgrkvjnchuagflu3qzjp5d/bafkreidtgc6zmduphsif2mv3dosqmuxn6m4gjl4w5ccirmqs2dsrx5eqt4)

Discord will globally add ID/Face verification to access age-restricted content next month. While it protects the kids, it also might affect our privacy & anonymity, so i think the ID verification is a bad idea.

53MB of source code leaked from a government endpoint. 269 verification checks. biometric face databases. SAR filings to FinCEN. and the same company that verifies your ChatGPT account.
