The SCREEN Act (S.737) poses a serious threat to online privacy and free speech. By mandating age verification for all internet users, it would create a comprehensive data dragnet of intimate personal information. This privacy invasion sets a dangerous precedent for government overreach into our digital lives. Furthermore, age verification systems have been proven ineffective and easily circumvented, undermining the bill's stated goals. Rather than this heavy-handed approach, we should explore more balanced solutions that protect children online while preserving privacy rights for law-abiding citizens. I urge you to reject this misguided legislation and instead champion policies that uphold civil liberties in the digital age.
