So, OS-level age-gating is going federal, which will effectively kill your rights to device ownership and what’s left of free speech and expression.

Enjoy your free speech while you still have it because this is a clear attempt to erase that right.

SOPA never died, it just went into hiding until time to reemerge, and now’s that time, this is basically SOPA in a save the kids trenchcoat.

    In 2023 Ohio held a vote to legalize weed. Part of that bill was that business owners could sell lower quality delta 9 in places like gas stations, corner stores, ect. Drinks with THC were allowed at liquor stores. I’m not sure about bars, as I don’t go to bars.

    That bill passed overwhelmingly. Legalized pot for everyone!

    Well, we’re about 2.5 years since that happened, and without a vote, they have restricted parts of that bill.

    Instead of 12 home grow plants, as the bill was passed with, the final legalization only allowed 6 from day 1. Now it’s 3.

    Stores that are not dispenseries are no longer allowed to sell the lower grade stuff.

    There are stores that popped up, purely to sell the lower grade stores. Then overnight are closed. No longer legal.

    Mind you, all of this was approved in a vote, 2 years ago.

    My point is, these republicans do not give ONE FUCK about what people want, and vote for. They’ll just change the rules and disregard the will of the people, and change the law without voting.

    So 1% chance have a 100% chance if you don’t give a fuck about votes.
