       🚨Congress could vote on the KIDS Act today. The bill will push websites towards demanding to know users’ ages, whether through more data collection or error-prone age estimation. https://act.eff.org/action/tell-congress-don-t-force-age-checks-online

       @eff Yeah, well, "The Problems" are:1. Coding is protected speech (we remember US vs Zimmerman). Making me code is compelled speech and that's unconstitutional.2. Corporations are people (they're not, but I'll be maliciously compliant at this juncture), so that's also a First Amendment violation.3. Age verification does jack and shit to solve the problem, and we all know it.4. This is about identity tracking, and we all know it.Let the lawsuits begin. Ya'll gonna be busy soon.
