Today, members of the House will vote on a dangerous bill that will expand government censorship under the guise of protecting youth online.

Tell your representative to protect the First Amendment and vote NO.
Censorship Does Not Keep Kids Safe
KOSA is an alarming bill that would enable censorship and violate young people’s First Amendment right to freely access information. We must call on Congress to act now and protect free speech online.

These laws are to censor LGBTQ voices off the internet. The co-sponsor of KOSA, just one of the 18 censorship/surveillance laws, said we need to pass it to protect kids from “the transgender in society”. These laws will remove ALL anonymity from the internet endangering activists, journalists,etc
KOSA Won’t Just Silence LGBTQ Voices; It Will Also Be Used To Hide Abortion Info From The Internet
We’ve highlighted in great detail how KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act), sponsored by Senators Richard Blumenthal and Marsha Blackburn, which currently has an astounding 46 cosponsors, will be used…

I cannot stress enough to any other Australians to please avoid KWS verification like the plague.

I was checking through what bluesky's verification was and just immediately with this.
If you don't know, KWS had a data breech and it was confirmed user data was stolen that was supposed to be deleted

there is no available evidence that donald trump understands what a tariff is, what a trade deficit is, and what the national debt is.
The way Trump talks about the problems he caused by unilaterally imposing tariffs is fairly insane, even by his standards.

Both the "Continue" button and the "Try it now" button do *the same thing* in what is the clearest example of a dark pattern I've ever seen. Imagine someone is getting metrics about the "number of Google Docs users who are using AI" and all the numbers are total bullshit.

The effort is driven by "genuine fear" among Trump officials following the killing of Charlie Kirk that they could also become targets of political violence, says @kenklippenstein.bsky.social. It is "essentially the same sort of response to 9/11 — but in this case, it's directed at Americans."

This shit is why I tend to be wary of what I post here, lately. How the fuck can you put you trust in a platform where the head of T&S does shit like this... literally two months and a week after the Waffles incident.

How can we trust a team that acts like petulant children on their main accounts?
Bluesky’s head of trust & safety responding with a sarcastic image macro to a woman upset her husband was kidnapped by ICE is embarrassingly unprofessional & cruel behavior.

that account was then banned by Bluesky Trust & Safety. horrendously poor community management. what purpose does this serve?
