From #FOSTA/SESTA and the #OnlineSafetyBill (UK) to #EARNIT and #KOSA, it's becoming increasingly common for governments to use children as pawns to push anti-porn, anti-sex worker, and anti-free speech legislation, none of which protect children.

On #SaferInternetDay the government would like you to think the #OnlineSafetyBill does that. But how is it safe to scan everyone's private messages? Given the uncertainties of the tech and its deployment on every phone, the aim is surveillance over safety. https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/how-the-online-safety-bill-puts-a-spy-in-your-pocket/

The #OnlineSafetyBill is not only ridiculous as @mmasnick poignantly writes; it's dangerous. The UK government is creating an unsafe environment for the children; it pushes them to go underground.
Democracies are embracing the age of #surveillance.
