"High schools have a lot to learn about teen sexuality and students with disabilities." https://prostasia.org/blog/special-ed-and-child-sexual-abuse/
This move by Russia will put people at risk. LGBTQ+ people are already at higher risk for being victims of sexual violence, among other things. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna125683
"If we learn that our teens are sexting, it forces us to see their emerging sexuality in ways that are uncomfortable for many parents, and profoundly cringey for your kid, too — if they know that you know — or worse, have seen." https://www.romper.com/parenting/talk-to-your-kid-sending-nudes-photos-sexting-phone
"A strong comprehensive data privacy law promotes privacy, free expression, and security. It can also help protect children, support journalism, protect access to health care, foster digital justice, limit private data collection to train generative AI, limit foreign government surveillance, and strengthen competition." https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/11/address-online-harms-we-must-first-do-privacy
"To help you get answers to any questions you may have about keeping kids safe, as well as who we are, what we do, and what we support, we are launching a new initiative called 'Ask Prostasia.'"

"The Parliament’s position on the CSA Regulation is a rejection of authoritarian law enforcement powers, and a reaffirmation of the human rights that constrain governments from using such powers against the people – for any reason at all." https://jere.my/ai-and-victimless-content-under-europes-csa-regulation/
"KOSA would censor the internet and would make government officials the arbiters of what people can see online" https://act.eff.org/action/call-congress-to-stop-kosa
⚠ If you are in Canada and you participate in ageplay, and the character that you roleplay as is "underage", be warned that you risk being charged with "child pornography" by Canadian prosecutors. It would be wise to read through our online ageplay safety tips blog: https://prostasia.org/blog/online-ageplay-safety-tips/
"Every human being should have the right to have a private conversation. That’s true in the offline world, and we must not give up on those rights in the digital world. We deserve to have true private communication, not bugs in our pockets." https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/11/month-eu-parliament-can-take-action-stop-attack-encryption

"The last time that I saw my OB she said 'do not get pregnant in Texas right now'" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eH2BItdo0M

"Let me be clear: contrary to the name, pedophilia OCD is not related to true pedophilia. It describes a specific obsession wherein someone becomes fearful of being a pedophile." https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/beyond-mental-health/202311/spirals-of-harm-fear-of-pedophilia-and-scrupulosity
