Yes, 153 million American driver's licenses & IDs have been leaked online, yet the USA is still debating on passing mandatory ID verification laws (KOSA & SCREEN ACT) coming this month. Keep telling your US politicians to vote NO, they are NOT "protecting kids". www.techtimes.com/articles/326...

Taking a break from ID verification news & wanted to share a fundraiser campaign for an indie animated series, "The Little Trashmaid," based on the webcomic series. Only 10-11 days left for fundraising, and it's almost reached its goal! Donate if you want to see it in fruition!

Unfortunately, Macron is not giving up and is already working on rewriting his ID verification law proposal. In this day of global ID verifications, it is still likely to pass. French Europeans keep fighting to pressure your parliament members to reject this potential 1984 scenario!

VICTORY IN FRANCE. A media ban aimed at children that requires the ID of everyone has been ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL, ruling that it violates free expression and privacy. "Protect the children" does not justify forcing every adult to prove their age just to access the internet. KEEP FIGHTING.

Update: Good news is the SCREEN Act did not passed, but it is not completely dead, only delayed due to lack of votes, which means it will come back later. Bad news is KOSA passed, BUT it is not law yet until a full Senate vote followed with a House-Senate fight in Sept. Keep calling, don't stop!

Today could possibly be the day where the US Senate will vote on bill S. 1748 KOSA, S. 737 SCREEN Act, & S. 5090 Digital Age Assurance Act, all ID verification bills. Share with your family & friends in USA, call & email your American Senators to vote NO. 202-221-3121
These will be the possible Senators who will be deciding on whether these id verification sriveillance bills will be passed. Remind them how people's IDs have been hacked & peaked after giving their IDs to platoforms sich as Discord, TikTok, & even the EU app. Give them ever evidential & logical reason why these bills do not protect children, just violates the 1st & 4th amendments clearly. I also want to add in S. 4199 (Youth AI Privacy Act) & S. 4407 (CHATBOT Act) that are also bills that require Americans to upload their IDs to use AI tools or services. Regardless whether we hate or don't care about AI, no one should be obligated to upload their personal information to third party services for whatever reasons online.

Official: Aug 5th is when the USA Senate will vote on America's bills, KOSA & SCREEN Act. Call your US Senators to vote NO, or you vote them out until Wed. Provide them evidential resources such as Discord, TikTok, & the EU AI ID verification app got hacked (twice from Discord & EU). 202-221-3121
Chair Cruz’s chatbots bill, the SCREEN Act (adult website age check), Markey’s Youth AI Privacy Act and more will include KOSA. Source from Ben Brody on TwitterDiscord's third-party vendor, Persona, was hacked and exposed. Anyone who did age verification with Discord, and by extension Persona, could be extensively tracked and watched. Source from DeepHumor on Twitter.

The KIDS Act, which contains KOSA, has ONLY passed the House. It still has to go through a Senate committee and Senate proper (I'd say White House too but there's 0 chance he vetoes.) Several States (mostly red ones, shocker) are passing their own "internet safety" Bills. DO NOT DOOM.

They're the same picture 😏
The "They're the same picture" meme from The Office (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/theyre-the-same-picture)

First Image: Somebody holds up two pictures with the caption "Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture". Crudely photoshopped over the photos are Kickstarter's new regulations on adult content. The left one reads, "Generally allowed: -Romance and spicy literature, including comics. -Artistic or documentary nudity in non-sexualized contexts." The right one reads "Generally not allowed: -Pornographic or explicitly sexual content. -Projects created specifically for sexual gratification"

Second Image: Pam, a white woman in her late 20s, smiles mischievously at the camera with the caption, "They're the same picture."

Kickstarter officially banning adult content now. Knew this was coming, but it still sucks to have yet another part of the internet that I've been explicitly evicted from. Digital gentrification is exhausting.
Screenshot of Kickstarter's new rules against mature content, in which everything pornographic is banned. It's a long document that's formatted in a way that I can't copy and paste all the text that's in it, but the first is that all point and anything sexual is now banned.This part of the document outlines how even self censoring your own work will not work, because even the implication of sex is too much. Even in prose works.This document is confusing because it says that erotic comics ARE allowed... you just can't show sex acts or genitals or try to arouse people. Also you can make sex toys, just so long as they're not for sexual gratification. This is how Kickstarter's email began: 

"Hello,
Kickstarter has always been a home for bold, boundary-pushing creative work, including mature content projects like romance novels, nude art books, and provocative comics. Creators working in this space are a valued part of our community, and that hasn’t changed." And yet it definitely has changed.
