From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYNew Yorkers Deserve Real Net Neutrality Protections
I'm writing as a concerned New York resident to urge you to strengthen our state's net neutrality laws to match the comprehensive standards California established through SB 822. Currently, New York's net neutrality protections are limited. They primarily rely on an executive order requiring ISPs w
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYDemand for Immediate ALPR Surveillance Reform Following Evidence of Abuse
I'm writing to demand immediate action on Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) surveillance in our state. The technology is currently operating as an unchecked mass surveillance network, and the evidence shows those charged with overseeing it cannot be trusted. Last month, the Electronic Frontier
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYSupport Digital Literacy, Not Social Media Bans for Kids
Today, I'm writing about how New York approaches kids and technology. As you've probably seen, California just passed a package of online child safety bills, and they got it half right. AB 1709, which Governor Newsom signed this month, functions as a ban on social media use for anyone under 16. I'd
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYLegislation needed: ban undisclosed smart TV microphone and network surveillance
I'm writing as a constituent from Syracuse about something that came to my attention recently, and frankly it's been hard to stop thinking about. In August 2026, the tech review channel Gamers Nexus, working with independent security researchers, published forensic testing showing that LG smart tel
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYSay NO to self-driving cars. Invest in public transit instead.
I recently read about Waymo's "statewide road show" at the Great New York State Fair, where the company presented self-driving cars as our inevitable future. I'm writing to push back on that framing. A future dominated by robotaxis is not inevitable—it's a business plan. And it's one that New York s

I'm one of your constituents in Syracuse, and I'm asking you to end automated license plate reader (ALPR) mass surveillance in New York, following the lead Texas and Florida have just set. On August 28, Governor Abbott barred Texas state agencies from spending public money on Flock cameras, right b
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYConstituent question: SAFE for Kids Act after the IDScan.net breach
I'm a New Yorker writing about the SAFE for Kids Act, and I'm asking you to work toward its repeal — or at minimum, a fundamental reworking of how it handles age verification. Last week's IDScan.net breach shows exactly why. A dark-web marketplace called Nexus started advertising 153 million scans
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYNew Yorkers' Movements Are Being Sold — Pass Location Privacy Legislation
I'm writing to ask you to sponsor and pass legislation protecting New Yorkers from the unregulated trade in our location data. Right now, companies called data brokers can buy, sell, and resell records of where we go — anywhere with a credit card, including government agencies. This isn't hypotheti
From a verified voter in Syracuse, NYBan ALPR Mass Surveillance Statewide
Pass legislation to ban automated license plate reader (ALPR) mass surveillance in our state. These systems don't just catch stolen cars — they build a searchable record of everywhere every driver goes, fed into databases that police, ICE, and private vendors can query at will. That's not a tool tha
