Ad| New age verification laws are moving fast, and most people have no idea. Some states already require age verification to use social media. More states are next and Congress wants to take it nationwide. Here’s what’s actually happening, who it affects, and what you can do. @efforg #effpartner #onlineprivacy #dataprivacy #ageverification #digitalrights

You've probably heard about Enshittification, but do you know how to fight back? Join Cory Doctorow during our EFFecting Change livestream tomorrow, May 14 to learn more. https://www.eff.org/livestream-doctorow

🚨ACTION ALERT🚨
The California Assembly is fast-tracking A.B. 1709, a bill that would ban everyone under 16 from social media. This censorship scheme threatens your data privacy, ignores the First Amendment, and wastes taxpayer money during a massive budget deficit. And, by overriding the judgment of parents, the California Legislature is trying to take parenting away from families and replace it with an overbroad ban and a costly (and shady) new government commission. Tell your representatives to vote NO on A.B. 1709 at the link in our bio.
