澎湃新闻消息，印度尼西亚政府官员6日说，正在考虑对16岁以下人群实施“网购禁令”，以避免未成年人在网购平台遭遇诈骗。
印尼通信和数字事务部长默蒂娅·哈菲兹当天接受法新社采访时作出这一表态。她表示，印尼出台针对16岁以下人群的社交媒体禁令后，接下来将把禁令扩展至购物网站。“电子商务平台将是下一个，因为我们发现有孩子在网购时成为诈骗案受害者。”不过，她没有说明“网购禁令”的详细方案。
今年3月28日，印尼正式实施针对16岁以下人群的“社媒禁令”，成为东南亚地区首个效仿澳大利亚、禁止青少年在优兔等社交媒体平台开设账户的国家。印尼政府表示，这项禁令覆盖印尼约7000万名青少年和儿童，以防他们受到网络色情、网络霸凌、网络诈骗和网络成瘾等问题侵害。
现阶段，印尼“社媒禁令”主要针对8个“高风险”网络平台。按默蒂娅·哈菲兹的说法，这类禁令“最终将应用于所有数字平台”。

1. connect the dots with another big bust, ―bombing Iran― and the OPEC countries aggressively funding techbros to #aislop the USA
2. tell folks of all the aislopping techbros paying politicians to pass #ageVerification laws so they can use that info for their AI #stalkerware

The Canadian government is planning
to introduce a bill on Wednesday, June 10th, to mandate identity surveillance of every adult using social media in Canada! 👁️🗨️
https://globalnews.ca/news/11894610/canada-social-media-ban-teens-online-harms-bill/
A ban on social media for children
does nothing to reduce the harm caused by commercial social media. Instead, it means mandatory ID scans for every adult using social media.
We must stop this authoritarian proposal,
and demand our government focuses instead on reducing the harm for everyone using social media.
It has been explained by experts over and over that bans of social media are shortsighted lazy measures that do not help in the end, but in fact harm everyone, including the children.
Stop ID surveillance in Canada! ✊⛔️
Contact your MP and our Prime Minister TODAY to voice your opposition. Here's where to find their contact information: https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en/search

A thread to Stop ID Surveillance from coming to Canada ⛔️🧵
Yesterday, I sent a long letter to the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, the Culture Minister Marc Miller, and the leaders of all other major federal parties in Canada.
I sent this letter to voice my concerns about the upcoming bill that is planned to be introduced today at 5 p.m. ET, to propose a ban of social media for children, therefore requiring all social media platforms to identify every adults accessing it.
This is a long thread of what I wrote (mute me for one hour if you don't want to see it).
Feel free to copy any parts you want to share in your own letter of opposition sent to your representatives this week.

When you read about Bans of Social Media for Teens and Age Verification, you must remember what it truly means:
• Official identification of every adult using social media.
• Deanonymization of every account, endangering groups that often rely on pseudonymity for safety, such as victims of domestic violence, victims of stalkers, people of color, and LGBTQ+ people.
• Putting every adult at great danger of exploitation, fraud, and identity theft by forcing them to share their official ID with a for-profit third-party company with no incentive to protect it. Breaches have already happened.
• Constructing a system of mass surveillance to attach every comment on social media to a legal identity. Effectively allowing authoritarian governments to silence their critics and opposition.
• Potential for dystopian censorship and cutting off means of organization for groups of resistance to oppressive regime and organizations.
• Endangering children online by putting a clear identification beacon over every child or family with children online.
• Endangering the data of children who will inevitably try to pass as adults, and have their information collected by the third-party for-profit company.
• Diminishing the value of official identification due to the inevitable data breaches, eventually pushing the system to require even more intrusive identification techniques, such as iris scans and fingerprints.
• Installing a system of mass surveillance capable of attaching even more information to everyone's legal identity. With a potential to built list of people in certain groups, and scale-up state censorship and discrimination in unprecedented ways.
• The list goes on and on.
This isn't about protecting the children.
It never was.
Do not be duped by this excuse used to convince you to let go of your human rights. They are only trying to manipulate people lacking information.
Stay informed on the issues related to Age Verification, and push back for your rights to privacy and democracy.
The future depends on us.

""Every failed attempt to make children safer online is followed by more surveillance and censorship," he said. "Children have rights too and these policies will harm their free expression and privacy rights, and push them into less regulated spaces. Meanwhile the business models driving harms are untouched."
Others questioned whether the measures can realistically be enforced. Mark Jones, an online harms specialist and partner at law firm Payne Hicks Beach, noted that the consultation closed only weeks ago and warned that determined teenagers have a habit of finding ways around restrictions.
"A social media ban only helps if it is genuinely enforceable," Jones said. "If large numbers of young people simply circumvent the restrictions, parents will just lose visibility into where their children are actually spending time online rather than reclaiming any control."
The political case for the crackdown appears relatively straightforward, but the practical one is less so. The government now has to persuade social media companies to enforce the rules and teenagers not to find ways around them."

However you look at it, #ageverification is a major change to the internet and our freedoms.
We've seen all kinds of legislation pushed through in the past, often even against major resistance.
What makes me suspicious this time is the speed at which some of the slowest bureaucracies in the world are adopting it and how it's happening in 20+ countries in parallel.
It's like they're all in a group chat, fast-tracking this before resistance can even form.
The scariest thing about new #AgeVerification laws being introduced in Europe (France, I was expecting more from you) is to see the positive reactions of my family members, who have fallen hook, line and sinker for the arguments discussed in the media. "It's to protect the children!" No it isn't.
I'm sending this superb article by the @eff to all of them:
🔗: https://www.eff.org/issues/age-verification
Now is the time to #resist and speak up and educate those around us ✊ #privacy
California and Colorado legislated that Linux distributions, being free and open-source, are exempt from the age verification in operating systems, unless they are proprietary like SteamOS (and Windows).
Too bad the systemd developers already complied with fascism in advance before the bills were even finalized.
Will Lennart Poettering and his followers now please remove the birthDate field from systemd?
P.S.: If you reply with any variation of "You need to calm down," I will block you.

Surprising good news from 🇫🇷 !
"France's Constitutional Council strikes down social media ban for under-15s"
"In its decision, the Constitutional Council raised concerns about the possible impact on privacy from instituting an age-verification system for all users."
Wow! I was not expecting this at all.
#互联网抗癌记 央视新闻消息，当地时间8月14日，法国宪法委员会宣布，否决一项禁止15岁以下未成年人使用社交媒体的法案，认为相关规定对表达和通信自由构成“不成比例的侵犯”。

Does anyone have any insights / scoops about the upcoming #EUKidsAct, set to be introduced this Thursday to "age gate" access to social media platforms across the EU? (Thus forcing every citizen to upload their government ID to establish their age)
I'm super worried about the impact on the #OpenSocialWeb and the Fediverse in particular.

I wish they would share a clear description of the platforms affected by this legislation.
“Meta’s settlement with 52 state attorneys general is a bad deal for all internet users, and especially for teens. That’s what we said the day the settlement was announced.
In this post, we go through the Settlement’s provisions in detail and explain why that is so, including how:
- The Settlement embeds age assurance technology and age-gates into Meta’s social media products and requires all users—minors and adults—to undergo a rights-threatening age estimation process
- The Settlement places severe restrictions on Teens that can largely only be modified by the Teens’ parents and only then in exchange for giving their parents a ton of information about their online community and usage;
- The Settlement seems to empower the attorneys general to enforce Meta’s content restriction on “age inappropriate content,” categories that Meta itself has had trouble administering without excluding information about sexuality, sexual and reproductive healthcare, and abortion medication;
- The Settlement actually requires Meta to collect, analyze, and retain more information about its Teen users—when the pressure should have been on Meta to diminish its surveillance capitalism.
- And the Settlement in no way limits the attorneys general from seeking the user information for their own law enforcement purposes.”

🇪🇺 European Citizen's Initiative against ID age verification online
Just yesterday, Stop Killing the Internet, from the people at @StopKillingGames, launched an ECI against ID age verification! This is great but it needs 1 million signatures !
So, if you are a citizen of #eu , please sign it! If you don't, or even if you do, still share it around so more people know about it and can sign it!
https://eci.ec.europa.eu/066/public/#/screen/home
Reaching the signature threshold will not mean that ID age verification will immediately become illegal, but the subject will be brought to the @EUCommission and they'll have to do SOMETHING about it. This is already a huge step in the right direction!
Please boost and share this post to spread the word! Thank you!

"we have a company that is a big player in the age verification space, talking up age and identity verification laws, that appears to have had a long-standing ongoing leak of every ID it scanned.
At this point, anyone still supporting age verification requirements, especially claiming it’s for “child safety,” should have to answer for all the millions of people put needlessly at risk due to data breaches like this."
9月18日，网信办发布《国务院关于保障未成年人健康安全使用网络的规定（征求意见稿）》（以下简称《规定》）。
《规定》要求，网络服务提供者不得向未成年人提供陌生人社交服务、虚拟亲密关系服务；向16周岁以下未成年人提供网络社交服务、可能影响未成年人认知的人工智能服务等网络服务时，应当以未成年人模式提供。
《规定》还要求，网络服务提供者应当具备年龄验证能力，可通过身份证件、网号网证、人脸识别及行为特征识别等技术进行年龄验证。
意见反馈截止日期为2026年10月17日。

Do not provide your ID or facial scan to access social media.
I repeat, do NOT provide your ID or facial scan to access social media when requested.
This is not a drill.
If everyone refuse to comply, and let their accounts dormant instead, I promise you the platforms themselves, with their immense budget and network of lobbyists, are going to fight these absurd laws to recover their users.
They need you more than you need them.
Make them fight for your rights.
Do not comply.
Spread the word and boycott ID checks ✊
