If there was ever advice I could give anyone, it's have a favorite bad movie. Just something that you whole heartedly love because it entertains you in the best way even if it's not good and can watch anytime.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt made a 12-minute response video to people mad at him supporting mass surveillance and censorship, and somehow got even MORE wrong about Section 230 than his original congressional testimony.

Since I already had to ruin my NICE and NEAT two post thread I do wanna add another point:
Yea it's not just about NSFW. It's a greater goal of suppressing LGBTQ+. Fight this.
But. If it WAS just about NSFW. I would hold the same position. It's valid all on its own. I STAND ! WITH ! THE FREAKS !

I keep seeing folks say they'll just accept a Teen Friendly account on Discord rather than scan or ID and I don't know if I wanna mass normalize leaving NSFW pals out in the cold yet again. Especially with all the censorship stuff goin on I think we gotta stand with the freaks now more than ever.

You and your trusted third party partners leaked thousands of people's information so no, only requiring Facial Scans and Govt IDs for some users is still not good enough. You're actively making the internet less safe.
Discord has posted updated clarification:
-Discord is not requiring everyone to complete a face scan or upload an ID to use Discord
-The vast majority of people can continue using Discord exactly as they do today, without ever being asked to confirm their age

Section 230 helps make it possible for online communities to host user speech: from restaurant reviews, to fan fiction, to collaborative encyclopedias. But recent debates about the law often overlook

I’m glad to see people protesting Discord forcing IDs for age verification, but what I need everyone to understand is that there’s immense bipartisan pressure to make the entire internet like this, and they are likely going to succeed unless something drastic happens

Yeah, let what is happening to Discord radicalize you against the encroaching of puritan fascism we are seeing in laws world wide.
The US, Canada and a good chunk of the EU like Spain are looking into making laws that will actively do the same for a more expansive area of the internet.

Please watch or at least skim some of this. We are closer than ever before to the repeal of Section 230 and she explains it perfectly. If you have no idea what this means, I suggest you get informed. We're closer than ever before with such a lax public response to Flock, Alexa, Ring, Palantir, etc.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is supporting The Heritage Foundation's tech policy agenda, boosting a proposed law by Lindsey Graham that would mass deplatform LGBTQ people and censor abortion content from the internet. And he's trying to frame it as progressive!
