Do you know if any organizations are coming out against it? I've been looking for a place to plug in. These people aren't my representatives, but I know people in their districts and I'm curious why now? Who asked them to do this? Why did they think during the unprecedented expansion of the surveillance state was an appropriate time to propose something like this. There are only two sponsors. I looked through other legislation they cosponsored and some of it was good, some of it was garbage, but this was among the worst. I'll try calling their numbers and send an email.

I'm not saying I'm smarter than you but to me it looks like "Hey yeah we require age verification. So, anyway..."

A token easily bypassed "verification" law to set and forget. It's basically the same level of security corrently keeping teenage boys off of PornHub.

The photo ID requirements are what will come next.

It always ALWAYS comes step by step!

First they will introduce age "non-real-check", then they will enforce the check: you have accepted the principle, so what's the big deal if we actually check it?

It’s more than that. Go read the bill, particularly section 1798.501.b, 1798.502.a and b. Every developer of every application that can be downloaded from every package system MUST request your age bracket every time it is downloaded. And possibly every time it is launched. Basic utilities like ‘ls’ and ‘cat’, that pong example I pushed as a test, everything.

Get people used to a mild form of age verification. Next step, full ID upload.
