Age verification for the internet is the end of human rights and freedom of speech for generations to come: not only in the EU, UK - also in the US. We are watching the freedom values of Western civilization collapse — adopting the same digital cage that others are already trapped in. Human rights are taken away every single day — all because too many of us are still not ready to defend them, mistakenly believing these rights are simply given. Generations fought for these freedoms, high standards of values, and paid with their lives so that we could enjoy and live in a free Western society. Ask yourself: what have you done, and what are you doing every day, to protect this heritage?

Just yesterday I went out on the street with a banner asking: Have you already tried LINUX? and Is LINUX more democratic than Switzerland? I hade several conversations. Also with people that have never heared about LINUX or with such, that never installed it, but are curious. I will defnitly repeat this. And see if maby people in repaircaffees are willing to give it a try. I just think LINUS can be a good first touch, to also talk about free software, how it works, is getting developed and how everyone is free to participate. Even without coding skill.
For this, we all need "not locked" devices. If phones all have a locked bootloader, then just one order for google or apple and they block any "bad app". People are building, but if there will be no hardware to run this software on, what then?
There's only one brand of phone that has an unlocked bootloader and ironically enough that's the Google Pixel, containing the M2 and M3 Titan co-processor.
I have an IMPORTANT piece of INFO: in the UK, Apple forced the age block on iPhones, BUT ONLY IF YOU UPDATE IOS. If you want to keep your freedom, delay the update for now, till some workaround is found

So whats your plan? Send them an email and ask them to stop?
We need people that can organize protest marches in every western country to show to those behind the scenes, controlling, rolling out this mass surveillance that the people do not support this. without mass protests the WEF 20230 agenda will be imposed even before that timeline. Te WEF knows that individual citizens have no power, only when the mass gets together something might change, the mass elect their political candidate but once elected those politicians have to follow the agenda set, the EU under Ursula VdL is the obvious example.

We do this with TEPP with @Web of Trust Foundation We don’t need those top-down surveillance if we have the bottom-up tools to build the trustworthy / curated environments for those who need it (like our youngsters) We need more (freedom of) choice to preserve our agency / autonomy
