This often-used comparison is disingenuous.<br/><br/>If we stay within this analogy of the analogue world, then online age verification is more comparable to showing an official identification card at the liquor where the cashier would make thousands of photocopies of it, store some in an unlocked drawer, share some with all other liquor stores worldwide, also share some with grocery stores, newspapers, their friends, and random strangers on the street. Then leave a bunch of copies on the floor, for anyone to grab. <br/><br/>Nobody would accept to show their ID at the liquor store if it was happening that way. But sadly, most people ignore the extent to which data is shared, lost, and stolen online, on a daily basis.<br/><br/>(7/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:13:49Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvwk3knywczxefcmt2kf96fcvt7acwy5h7cv25gawmg2mlpwzxk8szyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7jxdc3x In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrzdsjv3fkdu3r0we7vx5k6362krct098qgyejh8lar7kl6z450wqf0ufrs'>nevent1q…ufrs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Adults would be harmed by this ban 🧑🧵<br/><br/>In addition to the already stated dangers of increasing the risk of identity theft, fraud, devaluation of official documents, attacks on the most vulnerable, discrimination against marginalized groups, and self-censorship, a ban of social media for children would give a free pass for corporate platforms to perpetuate the harm they also currently cause to adults.<br/><br/>All that is harmful to children on social media is also harmful to adults. <br/><br/>Social media are an integral part of modern communication and it has many benefits, but commercial platforms have been exploiting their users for decades, much beyond what our society should deem reasonable. <br/><br/>It is time for the Canadian government to regulate social media, yes. Not by excluding children and teens from it, but by obligating platforms to be responsible in protecting the safety and sanity of its users. It should be more profitable to run a platform that is open, transparent, and healthy for its users than one that is not.<br/><br/>A ban on addictive algorithms and data reselling, strong privacy protections and user controls, mandated transparency and effective moderation, an obligation to implement proven safety measures, and important consequences for platforms that prioritize profits over users&#39; safety would all be much more effective at protecting everyone on social media, including the children.<br/><br/>(6/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:12:52Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrzdsjv3fkdu3r0we7vx5k6362krct098qgyejh8lar7kl6z450wqzyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7ajvdam In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstyvz5v0rc38p2xghkgsut3wsyrwdydp3mz5hnkujnupzg3d3lvscg89ln8'>nevent1q…9ln8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Children would be harmed by this ban 🧒🧵<br/><br/>Despite how it might feel at first glance, a ban of social media for children would actually create new harm for children. <br/><br/>First, many children would try to circumvent the ban, this is already happening in countries with such legislation, like Australia. <br/><br/>Second, children who cannot circumvent the ban might be pushed to darker corners of the web to rebuild their social lives, on worse platforms, without any moderation or safety measures. Moreover, being pushed out of the legal frame, these teens and children might feel less inclined to report any abuses experienced to a trustworthy adult, effectively making the situation much worse.<br/><br/>Then, children living with abusive or unsupportive families could lose their support network overnight. It is quite common for 2SLGBTQ+ teens and children living with families that do not support them to find emotional support in a network of peers online. This is often vital to survival. Losing this support suddenly can have devastating permanent consequences.<br/><br/>(5/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:11:52Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqstyvz5v0rc38p2xghkgsut3wsyrwdydp3mz5hnkujnupzg3d3lvsczyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7p2yj6j In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv94z48mldp6zerpulgvcrwc329zql7gjepgxzcnrz0gpxf734t2qrczt7m'>nevent1q…zt7m</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Lobbyists are influencing policies more than experts and advocates 💰🧵<br/><br/>Unfortunately, there are many groups that are putting pressure on governments all around the world to increase surveillance under the guise of protecting the children. The rapidly growing, for-profit, age assurance industry has all to gain in influencing governments to push for age verification processes and bans of social media for children. <br/><br/>Even Meta has reportedly invested heavily in a network of organisations to discreetly lobby for age verification at the operating system level.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, nonprofit organisations and advocates who genuinely care for the well-being of the public have been warning for years about the dangers of age verification and social media ban legislation, but have much less money and power to influence policies at the government level. <br/><br/>I implore you, as the elected representatives for all Canadians, to consider this threat of corporate influence cautiously in your decisions, to listen to the warnings from advocates and experts in the field, and to prioritize first and foremost the well-being and safety of all Canadians.<br/><br/>(4/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:11:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsv94z48mldp6zerpulgvcrwc329zql7gjepgxzcnrz0gpxf734t2qzyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc73m5f7q In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0nkel9zrcx2wdmzf4ktu4ckyrkdsqctm52xamff30fc8vfendg7gpvf7xj'>nevent1q…f7xj</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>A ban does nothing to address the harm caused by social media 🧨🧵<br/><br/>The things that harm children on social media also harm adults. A ban of social media for children sadly does nothing to reduce the harm caused by social media, it only reserves it to adult, and postpones it for children. <br/><br/>The addictive and manipulative black-box algorithms, the privacy-intrusive data collection, the harmful violent content and misinformation, are all hurting adults as well.<br/><br/>Moreover, children who do not go around the ban before the restricted age (other implementations have shown that most children will attempt to circumvent the ban) will find themselves completely ill-equipped to protect themselves from social media harm once they come of age, and will be made even more vulnerable by our own legislation claiming to protect them.<br/><br/>A true solution to this is to regulate corporate platforms to forbid addictive algorithms, targeted advertising, intrusive data collection, third-party data sharing, violent content, weak moderation, manipulative tactics, and other abusive mechanisms used by certain platforms to prioritize profits over the safety and sanity of its users. <br/><br/>This would not only help children, but adults and society as a whole as well.<br/><br/>(3/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:10:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0nkel9zrcx2wdmzf4ktu4ckyrkdsqctm52xamff30fc8vfendg7gzyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7ady903 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw6au43xlnma287ujjauxmkfsfgffjsp6peqzzw2z88423xp38p3c9cnmwv'>nevent1q…nmwv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Age verification processes are dangerous to Canadians ⚠️🧵<br/><br/>Unfortunately, there is no magical solution: A ban of social media for children necessarily means a requirement to identify every adult using social media. This means that intrusive age-verification processes would have to be put in place by social media platforms, therefore collecting an immense quantity of very sensitive information from every Canadian adult using social media.<br/><br/>This is dangerous in many ways. <br/><br/>First, it means many (if not most) platforms will delegate this task to private for-profit third-party vendors with little to no incentive to protect this information properly. We have already seen data breaches of sensitive information in this process. This would increase the risk of Canadians becoming victims of identity theft and fraud, and would diminish the value of Canadian identification documents over time.<br/><br/>Secondly, this can create a permanent record of legal identities tied to social media accounts. This would endanger users who rely on pseudonymity online for safety, such as victims of domestic violence, trans and gender diverse people (for whom the legal identification might not match the name used on social media), performers using stage names online, and other people that are part of marginalized groups regularly targeted online (women, people of colour, 2SLGBTQ+ people, etc.). <br/><br/>All these vulnerable groups would only be one data breach away from incredible harm with the implementation of mandatory identity checks to access social media. <br/><br/>Furthermore, risking to link every social media account to a legal identity can have a silencing effect for activists, journalists, and whistleblowers. This can lead to self-censorship of topics important to discuss publicly in a free democracy. <br/><br/>(2/9)<br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:09:27Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsw6au43xlnma287ujjauxmkfsfgffjsp6peqzzw2z88423xp38p3czyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7uazqp5 A thread to Stop ID Surveillance from coming to Canada ⛔️🧵<br/><br/>Yesterday, I sent a long letter the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, Culture Minister Marc Miller, and the leaders of all other major federal parties in Canada. <br/><br/>I sent this letter to voice my concerns about the upcoming bill that is planned to be introduced today at 5 p.m. ET, to propose a ban of social media for children, therefore requiring all social media platforms to identify every adults accessing it.<br/><br/>This is a long thread of what I wrote (mute me for one hour if you don&#39;t want to see it). <br/><br/>Feel free to copy any parts you want to share in your own letter of opposition sent to your representatives this week.<br/><br/>Here&#39;s how to find their contact information: <a href="https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en/search">https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en/search</a><br/><br/>(1/9) <br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #Privacy #HumanRights #AgeVerification #CanPoli #Canada 2026-06-10T17:08:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqc36s7j73nvn00nj3acfc90ej6t0aq3f689gkxdweytm093vl29szyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7s2454d In reality, what they call age verification is abusive ID surveillance checks for everyone. <br/><br/>Start calling it what it is: <br/>ID Surveillance.<br/><br/>We must all fight to Stop ID Surveillance. <br/><br/>#StopIDSurveillance #AgeVerification #MassSurveillance #Authoritarianism #Privacy #HumanRights 2026-06-09T23:26:46Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9ju90dxsyeqdd9w3mkc9g55ytyv98f272emewcw6kg8r5ffutu2gzyprw0sc64j7wj7rcf8qzpvh93g0h6qka8u253j0hkqq9y7xyl0xc7evn0lh PRIVACY ALERT! <br/>Please boost for reach! 🚨👇<br/><br/>The Canadian government is planning <br/>to introduce a bill on Wednesday, June 10th, to mandate identity surveillance of every adult using social media in Canada! 👁️‍🗨️<br/><br/><a href="https://globalnews.ca/news/11894610/canada-social-media-ban-teens-online-harms-bill/">https://globalnews.ca/news/11894610/canada-social-media-ban-teens-online-harms-bill/</a><br/><br/>A ban on social media for children <br/>does nothing to reduce the harm caused by commercial social media.
