The "age verification" playbook isn't about protecting kids.
It's about bullying hardware and software vendors into building on-device digital ID infrastructure that can and will be repurposed for mass surveillance.
The safeguard IS the surveillance. Don't fall for it.
Countering hate is a collective responsibility.
We have taken important steps to combat hate speech through strong legal protections and digital safeguards, including:
🔹 The European Convention on Human Rights
🔹 The Digital Services Act, requiring platforms to quickly remove illegal hate speech
🔹 Criminal laws banning incitement to hatred
By choosing respect over division and facts over prejudice, we can help build a safer, more inclusive society for all.
Say #NoToHate, today, and every day!
