If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.

Mike Lee's SCREEN Act, which heads to Senate Commerce Committee for markup on Wednesday, would expand age verification requirements to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by the architects of Project 2025.

US folks: Today (August 4) is the last day to call your US senator before KOSA and the SCREEN Act go before committee tomorrow! Visit BadInternetBills.com for info and numbers to call. #StopKOSA #SaveSpeech #NodigitalID

Senate Commerce Committee is taking up KOSA + SCREEN Act THIS WEDNESDAY. Call your senators and share how you feel about KOSA's impact on online communities, and urge them to black all legislation that age-gates the internet and violates our privacy, like the SCREEN Act.

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.
