Indeed, but tech is on our side. Let's just make sure the right tools get in to the right hands!

Long ago people I know that had problems with their Facebook accounts were told they had to upload their government ID to prove who they were.

I was horrified to find out about AI determining the age of people. It's too young and there's too little regulation on how it can be used.

I'm sending this to my husband.

You are always among the best in explaining this topic to people, Naomi! Indeed, this is scary and it sucks that people reach out to government as THE solution for everything.

People are right to be concerned about their children getting access to pornography and other things, but, again, why are people looking to government as the solution? Before my children grew up and moved out we used OpenDNS on our router to control where they could go. Why don't more parents do the same? I'm sure that there are other solutions that can be used, by now, as it's been a few years.

On the topic of IPFS, the CensorGuard part of our efforts would set up a network on top of IPFS that would actually make the content searchable, while remaining decentralized. If folks are interested, come check out our Substack and reach out: https://anticen.substack.com/

A friend of mine shared this with me yesterday. Thank you so much for (1) the list of what is happening around the world, and (2) the list of decentralized tools. Bookmarking; restacking.

We need to stand up and fight against this. I will get rid of social media and the internet altogether before showing papers to use it.
