There's an EU citizen's #initiative against age verification and the necessity for a digital ID on the internet: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2026/000011_en You can sign it if you are an EU citizen. Cheers to the Finnish people who are already at almost 10% of the threshold required! #EUid #ageverification #StopKillingTheInternet #digitalID #petition

The EU Kids Act "changes the fundamental open nature of the internet and makes it a permission-based system where you are required to pass through an identity checkpoint to access information. Imposing the same complex compliance requirements on [small] services risks pushing them out."

🇪🇺 European Citizen's Initiative against ID age verification online Just yesterday, Stop Killing the Internet, from the people at @StopKillingGames@mastodon.social, launched an ECI against ID age verification! This is great but it needs 1 million signatures ! So, if you are a citizen of #eu , please sign it! If you don't, or even if you do, still share it around so more people know about it and can sign it! https://eci.ec.europa.eu/066/public/#/screen/home Reaching the signature threshold will not mean that ID age verification will immediately become illegal, but the subject will be brought to the @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu and they'll have to do SOMETHING about it. This is already a huge step in the right direction! :boost_requested: Please boost and share this post to spread the word! Thank you! @privacy@lemmy.world#stopkillingtheinternet #ageverification #privacy #europe

European Citizens

Give your support !

after some good news about Andy Burnham's tech policy - aka ditching Palantir - we're coming to bad ones (albeit I expected that since he backed the ban in January) https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/andy-burnham-social-media-ban-37383525 funny enough he's supposedly against UK Digital ID so... how exactly does he think it's going to get enforced lol #Privacy #AgeVerification #TechPolicy #Surveillance #Tech #Technology #SocialMedia #SocialMediaBan #StopKillingTheInternet #OSA #OnlineSafetyAct

We are now up to 19 organisations around the world who are a part of https://www.stopkillingtheinternet.net/ it’s been a huge amount of work helping to found this organisation. Also so exciting as it seems to be resonating with people that there is a need for a global movement to push for Internet freedoms + solutions to problems with big tech that respect human rights #stopkillingtheinternet #stopKillingInternet

The UK government could announce restrictions on VPNs next month. This would threaten our privacy and security. VPNs keep young people safe from harassment. Businesses secure. Journalists, activists and whistleblowers protected. Here's why we must #ProtectVPNs 🧵 Sign the petition if you agree ⬇️ https://action.openrightsgroup.org/tell-government-protect-vpn-use-uk#vpn #vpns #cybersecurity #privacy #onlinesafety #onlinesafetyact #ageverification #StopKillingTheInternet #ukpolitics #ukpol

Tell the Government: Protect VPN use in the UK

Take action! Protect VPN use in the UK VPNs help people to stay private and safe online. Young people use them to avoid harassment, or protect location data. Companies use them to make sure remote log-in to their networks are secure. Journalists, campaigners and whistle blowers use them to protect their work and themselves. But the Government wants to force people to verify their age when they buy a VPN. This will deter people from using VPNs to stay safe and secure online. Why are the governmen

Governments are moving toward bans, scanning, curfews and restrictions that could change the internet for everyone. #StopKillingTheInternet supports rights-respecting approaches to child protection, privacy, democratic accountability and platform responsibility.

“Soon it will be virtually impossible to be online in the UK without handing over identity documents or biometric data to unregulated companies.” The social media ban means EVERY user has to prove they're over 16. This puts millions at risk of their personal data being hacked. 🗣️ ORG's @JamesBaker@social.openrightsgroup.org. https://www.computerweekly.com/news/366644294/Big-tech-must-introduce-age-checks-to-support-UKs-under-16s-social-media-ban #stopKillingInternet #StopKillingTheInternet #socialmediaban #socialmedia #ageverification #onlinesafety #privacy #censorship #ukpolitics #ukpol
