  1. @gianmarcogg03 @ret @BrodieOnLinux @yakumo_izuru ok. Here is some other ways that are very legal and effective then just fucking violence, or just giving it in. you all.

    Two major ways.

    Number 1. Going outside and protest on front of the government. Putting ads, like billboards probably wont work because they'll just straight take it down.

    Number 2. Getting rid of the big companies tax exemption status, like roblox, or discord, or hell, even facebook. Sounds dull at first, but trust me, thats going to hurt them. Since they now have to worry about spending even more money on both lobbying AND paying their taxes.

    Other ways is probably convince different companies to blackout their website for at least a day, or until the big bros decided to drop the bill, or repel it. Remember #SOPA?

    Donating to @eff (which my dad has done), contacting your representatives, (which you probably have already done), spreading information about it outside of fedi could also help as well.

    I can't garentee that this any of this going to work though, (so please... take this with a grain of salt) but its worth a shot.

  3. It might be time to blackout your website.

    If digital verification is being forced upon us, dont let the enshittification take over- protest.

    Remember #SOPA right? Sites blacked out in protest of this new, proposed law.

    We need to something similar with Online safety act. PLEASE.

  4. I think it maybe time to blackout our #websites in protest of the Online safety act. #OSA. Remember #SOPA?

    Take notes, internet. take notes. Instead of letting the downfall all happened.

  13. #acta #pipa #sopa #chatcontrol and #ageVerification are just some of them. There's a neverending stream of attacks on the internet. We have to fend them off one by one.

    What vulnerability allowed them to keep attacking? How to ultimately stop this barrage once and for all, how to win the war?

  18. "More than a decade ago, Congress tried to pass SOPA and PIPA—two sweeping bills that would have allowed the government and copyright holders to quickly shut down entire websites based on allegations of piracy. The backlash was immediate and massive. Internet users, free speech advocates, and tech companies flooded lawmakers with protests, culminating in an “Internet Blackout” on January 18, 2012. Turns out, Americans don’t like government-run internet blacklists. The bills were ultimately shelved.

    Thirteen years later, as institutional memory fades and appetite for opposition wanes, members of Congress in both parties are ready to try this again.

    The Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA), along with at least one other bill still in draft form, would revive this reckless strategy. These new proposals would let rights holders get federal court orders forcing ISPs and DNS providers to block entire websites based on accusations of infringing copyright. Lawmakers claim they’re targeting “pirate” sites—but what they’re really doing is building an internet kill switch.

    These bills are an unequivocal and serious threat to a free and open internet. EFF and our supporters are going to fight back against them."
