Chat control's vote has been shelved for now, but the EU is still very intent on driving through this kind of legislation in the future if they can

If youre an EU resident, you need to contact your MPs and MEPs regularly and demand this be OPPOSED

Hey EU Citizens.

Between #savespeech and #fightchatcontrol, the current EU wants to STILL push to "protect the kids" in their own invasive way.

I love how they see the unpopularity of these censorship bills and the chaos Digital IDs brings, and they still go "But think of the children 😭". It was never about the kids.

If you're a citizen in the EU, do not let this slide. Contact them, hold their feet to the fire and make noise. #SaveSpeech

Reminder to y'all that along with keeping chatcontrol down, we also need to start messaging the EU MEPs to stop pushing for AV laws and censorship.

- Protest physically if they continue to push these bad bills.

- Call your MEPs. Every time they introduce any UKOSA law or Digital ID/ID AV law, tell them "NO" loudly and often: www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/home
- Continue #fightchatcontrol and follow them for updates: fightchatcontrol.eu

Also, push the Gov. to shut down Collective Shout, as they have caused irreperable damage to the internet & gaming market.

Next, raise awareness for EU's chat control. Call your MEPs and follow @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social for updates.

7 countries oppose it, 12 support it, and 8 are undecided, including Germany.

The final vote is Oct.14. We need to oppose it hard and fast.

Decided to do some edits to the script for US Politicians.

I've currently removed the Sammy Law(not as popular yet), the ACPA(only a draft), and the H.R.5300(no relevance and neutered, but keep an eye on it) to help narrow the scope of importance.

Ireland has its own Online Safety Code currently under deliberation, however, as with all the other online ID verification bills going around right now, this one is vague and full of dangerous assumptions.

read about it below and contact your representatives about it!

The Online Safety Code to bring age verification to Internet platforms is heading towards implementation with a fatal flaw.
