I read your new age verification proposal. https://www.euractiv.com/content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/EURACTIV-KIDSACT.pdf
The only thing you're standing up for right now is Facebook's profit margins! Your proposal makes all healthy nonprofit alternatives illegal!
Explained only by a vague speculation on page 5 that they “*may* … provide harms to minors,” as if that were somehow grounds for shutting them all down.
I can only hope that your courts are more respectful of your citizens' fundamental rights than you are. Shame on you!
