I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is

- adding backdoors into encryption on OS level
- "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY
- let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals

it needs to be stopped, post haste

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help.

this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls.

we can beat them

phone numbers and a script:

tl;dr - the reason why pro-censorship groups, notably Collective Shout, have influence over the payment processors is because they’re backed by a lobbying group called GOSRN (the Global Online Safety Regulators Network)

if you’re looking at the PP censor situation, you might want to look into this.
and so the true enemy (GOSRN) is revealed

Maybe we could find out.

Mastercard (US): 1-800-627-8372
Mastercard (Int.): +1-636-722-7111
Visa (US + Can): 1 800 847 2911
Visa (AUS): 1 800 125 440
PayPal: +44-0203-901-7000
Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?

We got like way more people than that don't we?
ok then. one angle of attack then needs to be actively bombarding Visa and Mastercard's phone numbers and emails.

are customer support phone numbers/emails the best avenue to start with or is there a better option?

As someone who conversion practices were attempted on, I urge you to sign this petition and get in to the finish line.

I was lucky enough to notice early ok what that “therapist” was trying to do and get out of there. These practices are cruel and dehumanizing.

If you've enjoyed Cryptmaster, please consider sharing the news. Despite an IGF award, a 95% Steam rating and a free demo, the game has gone mostly unnoticed by both press and players. It's not just a typing game and there may still be people out there who would enjoy it!

Apple has opted iOS and MacOS users into an AI photo scanning feature which tries to extract landmarks from your photos called Enhanced Visual Search by default with little notice.

What could possibly make another dull overnight shift working security at a mall exciting? An impromptu visit from your rad vampire girlfriend should do the trick.

Enjoy GRAVEYARD SHIFT, a comic short from me, @callmekitto.bsky.social and @longtalljodie.com.

Two vital pieces of info b4 Black Friday:

1. Price trackers have proven that Amazon has been slowly hiking prices so they can pretend to slash them on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. There are no actual deals. Just the appearance of them.

2. Amazon workers are on strike
