Why isn't 4chan administration making a bigger deal about this? Senate is out for a two-week recess before they pass this bill. This would force the non-blue boards to require age verification for access, namely buying the 4chan pass with a credit card as a way to verify... Oh.
>>109172820Who is the Epstein class trying to protect kids from? Is this another bill that does exactly the opposite of what the name sounds like it will do? Wait....
>>109172820Terrible fucking idea. It was never about protecting kids. If it was, they would work to make parental controls and similar work better. This way is easy for kids to bypass using AI generated stuff or game NPCs (for selfie verification) or sneaking parents' IDs (for ID or credit card verification). As they're making it, it's only effective for easing everyone into more mass surveillance.
>>109172820I am personally planning to walk to my local state house and request a sanator's audience on this.Most of 4chan is bots and feds (not ironic, not a joke) at this point so any threads which discusses action against war, government failures, bad economics, or control, gets autosaged with every user being temp locked and forced to confirm their identity with an email. So, this place will not be uprising against this issue any time soon.Legit considering moving to south america to escape the worsening american internet. No torrenting, no net neutrality, and now increasing enforcement around ID useage. Not into that.
>>109172840Oh yeah. They straight up stripped all of the actual child protecting points that the bill asked for because of big tech. Only the survailance stuff remains
I'm older now but I still need to crank it every now and then. When I use Bing video search 3/4th of the results are pornhub and no, I'm not gonna upload a picture of my license and create an account, because jacking off to porn is still embarrassing That being said, I believe access to streaming hardcore porn to kids is what created the trans epidemic. I was on the www pretty early (AOL dialup era) as a young preteen but it was pictures of naked ladies, no crazy hardcore gokkun shit, kids have always discovered their sexuality but the hard truth is porn is fucked up and kids shouldn't be looking at it, it's fucked up a few generations of kids
>>109172820gop = guardians of pedophiles
>>109172820Because we're all a bunch of useful-idiot niggercattle. The "free Internet" experiment is about to come to a close. Everyone's been wanting to jump ship.>picrelParents shouldn't give their kids unrestricted access to the Internet. I dunno, just a thought. >>109172850>It was never about protecting kidsOnly the most critical of observations are made here on 4chan. Thanks for pointing that out, anon.
Wouldn't 1.1.1.3 set as the DNS on every device just solve the 'kids safety' issue to begin with?
>>109172894>Parents shouldn't give their kids unrestricted access to the Internet. I dunno, just a thought.Most late millenial and gen z parents agree with you. There is 0 trust in computers and an attempt to get phones out of classrooms and out of kids likves for the most part including not giving them phones until later in life or giving them dumb phones.
>>109172820>Ratio'd so hard they deleted the tweet rumao. God scrolling through their twitter is insufferable, who the fuck runs this shit?
>>109172850>As they're making it, it's only effective for easing everyone into more mass surveillance.Even some politicians are capable of seeing that
>>109172922>MostAnytime I'm forced to make a supply run and go out into the wasteland that is Niggerville, USA, I always see kids on their (or their parent's) phones, or tablets. They give it to them to pacify them instead of giving them the ol' public lashing with a belt *CRACK*, or well-placed backhand--discipline is a lost art these days. Sometimes I'm forced to sit in the waiting room for something I couldn't patch up myself, and I'm forced to listen the lobotomizing content these kids consume (as well as full-on, in-depth conversations between middle-aged hwite women). The dumbphone/minimalism craze is all virtue signalling.
>>109172932Yeah, we are headed for a serious brain drain.No matter what we vote for stuff like this will keep getting worse.Hell, even if we rose up and brought attention to it, it will still be revised and passed quietly later.
>>109172897stop using logic
What can I do about this? I will do anything.
>>109172957Surely, surely you can tell that basing your world view on assholes on the bus on 2pm on a tuesday is blindsighted.Believe me or not, I am in academia and talk with a lot of young parents. Stepping away from computing and the internet is a strong talking point. Cum
>>109172982There's a difference between agreeing that something is an issue, and doing something about it. We, as niggercattle, are perpetually stuck on the former. >I am in academia and talk with a lot of young parentsYou are in "academia", or are you a primary/secondary school teacher?
>>109172888>That being said, I believe access to streaming hardcore porn to kids is what created the trans epidemic.Wrong. Have you seen what modern classrooms are like?
>>109172820just passing through, looks like this was something that was actually passed? Is the internet coming to a close sooner than I thought? I figured it'd be the end of the global internet and a shift to IPv6 first but I guess just cracking everything down with digital ID is one way to get kickstarted blowing it up.
>>109173047>looks like this was something that was actually passed?Yes/no. It passed the wHoRe, now to be passed onto the Senate (lazy niggers are on break atm), who can deny it for being unconstitutional (niggercattle have no rights), who will then hand it to the top ZOG himself, who can veto it (lol. lol, lmao!), or ratify it.Vidrel is simple, yet educational. It's basically the extent of most Amerinigger's education regarding the lawmaking process.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZ8psP4S6BQ
>>109172820The interesting thing about propaganda is that it eventually makes you stop caring. It makes everyone stop caring. "Oh you know, what if they do this, it won't affect me blah blah blah...""Who cares? It's a good thing anyway"
>>109172820Why would the 4chan administration ever do anything?>>109173047It passed the house. Still needs to go through the Senate, so there's plenty of room to pushback against them. Also, there's also Trump being unwilling to sign anything until the Save Act gets passed, so hopefully he can act as a final barrier.
>>109172974Go tohttps://www.senate.gov/states/statesmap.htmClick on your state.Go to both senator's websites.Go to the contact page.Call, email, or meet physically with your senators and ask them to go against 7757.Let them know you will vote against them, assuming they vote in favor of this. Let them know you wouldn't normally vote, but will vote against them if they are in favor of this.More information about 7757 (the KIDS act):https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/7757You MUST do this, or your way of life will be directly impacted. Everyone reading this should do this.
>>109172820what if the sites aren't hosted in the US?
This is the V-chip all over again (pointless and a huge waste of money), but now with surveillance on top. It's like enshittification for a whole country
>>109173155If this comes to pass (do not allow it, see >>109173154) then the next thing that will happen is a ban on accessing these websites. A ban on VPNs will follow. This is what is happening in the UK.
>>1091728204chan admin is definitely watching closely, since gookmoot took over they have been very silent but I’m sure they are paying attention
>>109173161so then its a total nothingburger? cool
>>109173092I heard some at the Senate were not very happy with the bill but because of the wrong reasons (it seems it's not extreme enough for them) but still I'm personally losing hope people fight these kind of bills every couple of months but they just keep coming back it ultimately feels like delaying the inevitable they have been trying to pass it for years and now Meta is backing it after years of opposition.
>>109173161>A ban on VPNs will follow. This is what is happening in the UK.I believe someone mentioned that in one of the bills it says something about Vpns can someone check?
>>109173169because otherwise meta is responsible for groomers o algonow with this bill in place, they get to completely wash their hands of all responsibility.
>>109173154You can see the exact votes here, by the way:https://www.congress.gov/votes/house/119-2/228My rep voted against it, thankfully. I'll remember that come election time.
>>109173181from where I am paid protonVPN (10 bucks a month) is throttled on pornhub and can't reliably play their videos
>>109172961Yeah unfortunately as jewis Rossman put it, we have to win 1000 times they only need to win once. They just keep pushing their bills over and over until it finally passes no matter how many versions die another one just comes along
>>109173166>>109173199see >>109173138>>109173181Not yet, but VPNs are not a solution. Right now many states do these things, so people VPN to other states. Now we would VPN to other countries. Soon, there will be nowhere left to VPN to.
>>109173209I care greatly, and I would never think this doesn’t affect me. I’m just lamenting that bills can basically be rewritten and pushed again and again forever, as long as the jews pushing them can fund it forever. The data centers and everything are infrastructure for their mass surveillance apparatus
>>109173199>theyThen stop re-electing the people that sponsor and vote for the bills. Obviously someone that failed to pass a bill they're interested in is going to try again.
that makes no sense, you already verify your age by paying for the internet.
>>109173216Lmao you still think voting does anything? Pressuring your local politician can work and that’s great but as I said they push another bill again later. I will say the USA has been a bulwark against this type of shit for a very long time but look at the UK. It’s completely laughable to suggest voting there. Democracy is dead boomer, this is what it’s turned into
>>109173222but then your children can use the connection you FUCKING retard
>>109173216Kek, why bother when fags like Fetterman and Sinema just flip because they suck trump cock? Shit must taste like meth or herion if people want it so bad.
>>109173232yes, that's what I pay for
>>109173212>I care greatlyVery good. Make sure you call your senators directly.>>109173222Absolutely. Make sure to let your senators know this issue should fall to the parents, who should do a better job parenting their children, as the parents themselves already verified their age when they paid for the internet.>>109173228Laugh at the automated demoralization propaganda.
>>109173232that is where you step in and do actual parenting instead of letting the government do it for you. That being said there is somewhat of a middle ground solution here that would go a long way to making both sides happy. You the user authenticate to your device(aka phone) that device can then authenticate to websites etc. That way you can have age verification with out providing your actual info to every website
>>109173244I absolutely would! God bless.
Just entertaining the idea this does happen in the US, would we all just touch grass and ditch the smartphones? Is that really a bad thing
Good thing I'm covered!
>>109173232parental controls exist
>>109173037Teaching love is wrong to you?
>>109172820Under 18s are not allowed on blue boards full stop. This it about the entire site.
>>109173263There's nothing to do less alone in this economy
>>109172820They will do nothing. When they get hassled about it mootwo will just pull the plug. Now if this site continues to operate business as usual then the glow is real.
>>109173282You'll be alone, retard
>>109172820OP is over exaggerating the speed of Congress>There are 706 bills and resolutions that had a significant vote in one chamber, making them likely to have further action.https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/#bystatus
