This bill is KYC for browsing the internet. If you want to upload a driver's license or do a face scan to use the internet this bill is for you. If you don't, it's time to fight it. Get the word out.

Hawley's GUARD Act just passed committee 22-0. Every American would have to upload a government ID or submit to a face scan to use an AI chatbot. Even for asking for algebra help or fixing a billing issue. The framing is child safety but the result is a national ID system for talking to a computer. reclaimthenet.org/senate-pan…

Senate Panel Backs GUARD Act, AI Age Verification Bill

Every American who wants to ask a chatbot for help would need to upload a government ID, scan their face, or hand over a financial record first.

it’s crazy how millennials were the only generation to have “computer class” and it literally saved our brains.

So where are the 2nd amendment purists at? The tyrannical government is terrorizing the people. Isn't it time for the good guys with guns to rise up against the government that is overstepping their bounds? They're pretty quiet at the moment, aren't they?

Yesterday's North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomaly is Code UFB! A record 1.50°C (4.45σ) above the 1991-2020 mean, the most over average of any day measured this year. And the running joke is getting old, but yes, I will probably have to extend the y-axis again tomorrow.

I’m not sharing or watching the video of Tyre Nichols having his life stolen. This is how we should remember him — as someone who was loved and who mattered. He should be alive and the work must never stop to ensure more lives aren’t brutally taken. – at Highspire, PA

I struggle knowing we’re expected to be reinfected with a stunning variety of variants, over and over and over again until our bodies give out, and we’re supposed to accept this without complaint, while we “move on” pretending it’s not happening.
