Digital checkpoints will crop up all over the Internet after UK MPs backed new powers to expand age verification.
The only way to block under-16s is to run checks on everybody.
That's millions more people having to hand over personal data to unregulated providers just to access everyday services.
Watch now ⬇️

The problem of online harms lies with the underlying business models of social media platforms.
Digital ID age checks do nothing to change that.
We need to disrupt the advertising-driven business models built on surveillance, profiling and maximising engagement.

Papers, please!
Digital ID age checks have taken another lunge forward. UK MPs have agreed to new powers to expand age verification across online platforms.
More and more everyday web services will be locked behind digital checkpoints, despite the serious privacy and security risks of this system.

The UK Parliament continues to pursue an approach to online safety that doesn't work.
The Australian under-16 social media ban has failed to make any difference and people have sought ways around it.
Digital ID age checks come at the cost of everyone's privacy and free expression. The math ain't mathing.

“In less than a year, we’ve gone from proposals to check ID for porn to the prospect of checking ID to access social media or unlock everyday features such as livestreams or feeds.
These online ID systems put both children and adults’ sensitive data at risk.”

The Green Party of England and Wales just put on 6,000 new members today, taking it to 130,000.
Coincidentally, our leader, Zack Polanski, was on Laura Kuennsberg this morning. Just shows that giving our policies exposure gives people hope.

Not the Boomers here on Mastodon, the ones out there, in the general population, believing everything the Press tells them...fucking up the lives of younger generations out of spite like they did with Brexit.
Crying about "wokeness" and having to treat people different to them as human beings, the 'oppression' of it all.
And then there's the fact the Climate is fucked and never unfucking itself

Kier Starmer hates Queer people, we don't belong in his trumpian vision for Britain. What he's doing to the Trans people now will happening to the rest of us Queers soon enough, already we are being assaulted in toilets thanks to the Supreme Court.
Does he care? Do we even exist to him?#Starmer #LGBTQIA #Transphobes #SexMatters #UKPOL #UKPOLTICS

Keir Starmer is a racist who holds the hands of Rich Peados and despises the rest of us for not being as racist as they are.

Nobody likes you Keir, you transphobic, Ableist and Zionist bully.
30,000 people in a field shouting "FUCK KEIR STARMER", I was there all the hate was directed towards those enabling Genocide and war crimes, that's all.
Sorry we not are the Jew Hating horde of subhumans the Zionists make us all out to be, but they're liars you see.

Crowdfunder for the woman who milkshaked Farage.
The guy in 2019 got a £350 fine for it, Farage should appreciate the irony of a crowdfunder what with his love of TrumpBecause British Media love Nigel Farage the news will be all "oh this is terrible, the young people are violent, our beautiful Farage, violated!"

ORG calls on all parties to respect digital rights 🦾
They can start by ditching the flawed #DPDIBill and not rush it through in the dying gasps of this Parliament 🗑️
We'll publish our manifesto soon 👀

Jesus Christ on a bike, the people of Bexley and Bromley voted for Susan Hall. What the f**k is wrong with them? The vote was:
Susan Hall – 111,216
Sadiq Khan – 48,952 -
Looks like Khan is hammering Hall in London (thank God). The prospect of London being led by a Trumpist was too horrific to contemplate. And, yeah, f**k the Tories for trying to gerrymander the election so that Hall would win.

We challenged the Immigration Exemption with @the3million as it prevents migrants from challenging mistakes in data and #immigration decisions.
The UK Court of Appeal found it unlawful due to insufficient safeguards and considerations of the risk to migrants' rights.
The government has now complied with the Court Order BUT in a way that makes it as difficult as possible for migrants to uphold their data rights in practice.

Tory Farmers vote for Tory politicians who screw them over and they get the privilege of having their protest unmolested by the Police and their spy networks, while the rest of us are painted as "activists" to be demonized.

Age verification is coming with the Online Safety Bill. It’ll force the choice of blocking content to ensure platforms are suitable for children or make all users verify their age.
This is “a huge boon to age verification companies, for little practical benefit for child safety, and much harm to people’s privacy.”

So the rules put in place to protect the environment from new builds that Gove has just ripped up are described by the Tories as 'defective EU laws'.
Let that sink in, protecting the environment is 'defective'.
