My privacy win is that I called my state and federal representatives in the US to oppose any version of age verification for installing software like what we’re seeing in Texas.
At this point I have a note on my phone where I copied down the phone numbers of all my reps’ offices so that I can easily call all five of them every time I hear about a stupid escalation of the government’s invasion of our privacy.
In my mind, I am in this for the long haul and need to regularly apply pressure on my reps to do the right thing. If not we will continue to see these boneheaded (if not malicious) proposals being signed into law across the US. We need to stop the next bill before it even passes in state legislatures!
Legit, we have been late to the game on a lot of these laws where they have already been signed into law awaiting only a start date. We need to block these proposals way sooner than we are doing today.
