CDT has said a few times that the KIDS Act incentivizes age verification. This post, by my colleague Tess Vartanian, explains why: "When not knowing a user’s age becomes a liability, rational operators will either over-collect identifying data or pull out of certain markets altogether."

History isn't just about what happened; it’s about how it's documented, preserved, and shared. When we look at global human rights milestones like the Emancipation Proclamation and Tunisia's 1846 abolition decree, we see early forms of statecraft and diplomacy targeting human dignity.
