What’s at stake is whether “protecting children” becomes a legal pretext for embedding government control over the internet to enforce specific moral and religious judgments—judgments that deny marginalized people access to speech, community, history, and truth—into law.

    I was born before the net. As it grew, I grew. I figured out ways to exploit everything. My current salary depends on those same skills.

    If I was a kid, I would open instagram and some dumbass filter, switch to age verification and ask my grand/parent(s) to pose for filter, and then switch back to insta+filter and “show” them what they were posing for. 2fa would already be directed to my e-mail account.

    If you’re desperate, there’s always that wack-a-do behind the 7/11 that thinks the net is mind control. He’s not wrong, but he also won’t be an online anytime soon.
