      But who the fuck is actually introducing these bills? Which entity/organisation/individual/company are they getting the ideas from?

        There is a (conspiracy) theory that Meta lobbies this shit in order to avoid having to verify the users’ age and not being culpable in case a minor uses their service.

          I buy that. It fits with literally all of Meta’s previous behavior and lobbying efforts.

        THiel’s palinitir, he has been in the news ALOT lately talking about surveillance with his palinitir AI, plus its already being used by LEO. normally you never hear about THIEL that much in the news, because hes pretty “news adverse” person, if hes doing this, hes desperate.

        even his boy-toy that get defenestrated in 2024 in florida, barely made the news

        The mainstream media.
