Despite its attempts at data protection, the SCREEN Act would mandate surveillance of extremely sensitive data that simply can’t be collected and stored without significant threats to our privacy and safety. Users attempting to access a censored platform would have their IP address tied to their identifying information, tracking their browsing history on government orders. Most sites would employ third-party age verification providers, which have been known to be hacked, exposing countless people’s personal data. Other companies use inaccurate and insecure methods like facial recognition, storing our faces and IDs in databases that are regularly accessed and abused by cops and federal agents.
The only way to truly guarantee our data stays safe and secure is to avoid submitting it to big databases and tying it to our online activity, as would be required by the SCREEN Act.
Refuse surveillance and censorship.
STOP the SCREEN Act! Also, I know who you are (and so will the history books), and I know what you’ll do.
