[0:00] Today could mark the end of the internet
[0:02] as we know it. The United States just
[0:04] snuck a bill under everybody's noses to
[0:06] basically force age verification,
[0:08] biometric scan, and digital ID on every
[0:11] single aspect of the internet. And so,
[0:13] if this passes today, it's it's GG. And
[0:17] I don't normally ask this, but I'm
[0:18] asking all of you right now to please
[0:20] leave a like on this video and please
[0:21] comment and just share this video
[0:22] around. More people need to be aware of
[0:24] this situation because today is a make
[0:26] it or break it for the internet.
[0:28] Depending on how the voting goes in the
[0:30] house today will determine if the
[0:32] internet basically comes to an end. And
[0:34] so there is ways to potentially fight
[0:36] back against this today. You could call
[0:37] your representative which I will talk
[0:39] more about in this video. But for now,
[0:41] please help share this video around for
[0:43] people are aware of this situation. This
[0:46] is actually happening. The entirety of
[0:48] the United States is about to force in
[0:51] age verification today. I'm not even
[0:54] joking. I just became aware of this late
[0:57] last night and a bunch of people are
[0:59] becoming aware of this as well. You can
[1:01] see a lot of people slowly starting to
[1:03] recognize and kind of key in on what is
[1:05] going on here. It is um not good. You
[1:07] have even politicians from Japan talking
[1:09] about this situation. So, let's just
[1:11] let's dive head first into this. So
[1:13] basically there is a package of multiple
[1:15] different bills and laws and stuff that
[1:17] are passing through the House right now.
[1:20] And basically there is going to be a a
[1:22] vote to be able to pass this. And the
[1:25] bills within this package is being
[1:27] supported bipartisan support so to
[1:29] speak. This right here which basically
[1:31] means that both political sides,
[1:33] Democrats and also Republicans are both
[1:36] in agreeance with passing this package
[1:39] of different laws. And um this in one
[1:42] law in particular that is raising a lot
[1:44] of eyebrows is the one that is basically
[1:46] KOSA, the kids online safety act that
[1:49] will force age verification on to every
[1:52] single person within the United States.
[1:54] And basically to get into specifics, it
[1:57] will force every single platform to make
[1:59] sure and reassure that they know you're
[2:01] of age and of an adult. For instance, if
[2:04] a platform doesn't know you're an adult,
[2:05] they could theoretically get fined and
[2:07] get into a lot of trouble. So, they're
[2:09] being forced to implement some form of
[2:11] safety rails or guards to prevent, you
[2:13] know, basically young users being able
[2:15] to get on. In a perfect world, this
[2:17] sounds completely okay. But the thing
[2:19] here is is that we have seen time and
[2:20] time again with the laws within like the
[2:22] UK and the EU that these online safety
[2:25] acts, the digital, you know, IDs,
[2:27] biometric scans, and everything does the
[2:29] exact opposite of protecting people or
[2:32] even protecting kids. It puts everybody
[2:34] in danger. It puts your personal
[2:35] information out there and it basically
[2:37] makes it to where everybody's at risk
[2:39] for potential data breaches or, you
[2:41] know, just getting doxed in general.
[2:42] It's just it's not good at all. And so
[2:45] the point here is is that this law is
[2:47] being pushed through the door under
[2:49] everybody's noses pretty much. It's just
[2:50] snuck under everybody's radar for the
[2:52] most part. And now it's at that point to
[2:55] where there's not really much you can
[2:56] really do but hope that there's people
[2:57] on the uh the voting that do notice this
[3:00] and actually deny it. But this is
[3:02] literally happening today on the 29th.
[3:05] Like today is Monday the 29th in the
[3:08] United States right now and this is
[3:10] getting voted on. This is this is bad.
[3:14] Like this is really really really really
[3:16] really
[3:17] freaking bad. Like this is basically the
[3:20] moment of is it over? Is the internet
[3:24] dead? That that is pretty much what this
[3:27] is. So, let's get into specifically what
[3:31] is being said here. So, we have little
[3:33] over 24 hours to save the internet. The
[3:35] vote is being rushed to the United
[3:37] States House floor on Monday the 29th.
[3:40] Buried inside the Kids Act are
[3:42] provisions that will push online
[3:43] services to verify all users ages
[3:47] require government directed moderation
[3:49] policies for online speech and even
[3:51] create new rules about private and
[3:52] encrypted communications. The bill has
[3:55] bipartisan support in large corporate
[3:56] donors who have all a vested interest in
[3:59] eroding your privacy and freedom of
[4:01] speech. Similar bills have already
[4:02] passed in other countries for instance
[4:04] UK and you know Europe and individual
[4:06] states and led to ID scanning mandates
[4:08] aka what's going on for instance with
[4:10] like Pornhub you know how you can't
[4:11] access it without basically IDing
[4:13] yourself more or less this will become
[4:15] the entirety across the entire like the
[4:17] whole internet like you'll have to ID
[4:19] yourself just to access the freaking
[4:21] internet and this will be from my
[4:23] understanding countrywide it won't just
[4:25] be a specific state it will be basically
[4:27] countrywide anyways faulty AI moderation
[4:30] the removal of encrypted messages ages,
[4:31] etc. If passed, some platforms will
[4:33] require ID scans from all users. Some
[4:36] may try to deploy faulty estimation
[4:38] technology that will randomly trigger
[4:40] and cause your accounts to either
[4:42] permanently delete or locked until you
[4:44] fork over an ID. These systems have been
[4:46] a disaster where deployed in other
[4:48] regions, it led to many accounts losses
[4:50] and data breaches. So, more or less
[4:52] what's being said here is that um all
[4:54] these platforms will implement some form
[4:56] of like AI system to determine if you're
[4:58] an adult or not. And obviously we know
[5:00] that these systems are very poorly
[5:01] managed and they basically mess up all
[5:04] the time. And so there's going to be
[5:05] thousands, millions potentially of
[5:07] people that are going to get falsely
[5:09] flagged and they're going to have to put
[5:10] their ID up to be able to identify
[5:13] themselves as an actual adult. And
[5:15] basically what this means is is that
[5:16] yeah, you proven you're an adult, but
[5:18] now your information and where you live,
[5:20] your driver's license and everything or
[5:21] whatever you use to verify yourself is
[5:23] now on that site and you're trusting
[5:24] this random website with your personal
[5:27] information. I know I wouldn't, but
[5:29] that's basically what's going to happen.
[5:31] You want to access Wikipedia? Well, you
[5:33] need an ID for that. Oh, you want to
[5:34] access Google? You're going to need an
[5:36] ID for that. You don't want to watch a
[5:37] YouTube video to be able to save your
[5:38] grandma that's having some problems. You
[5:40] know, basically can't breathe and you
[5:41] got to figure out CPR. Well, you need ID
[5:44] for that. That's basically what's going
[5:46] to happen here is that you're going to
[5:47] need an ID just to be able to access the
[5:50] internet at any given moment to
[5:52] determine your age. It is This is
[5:54] disastrous. not just for the internet
[5:56] but for privacy itself. And this is the
[5:59] the domino effect that I have literally
[6:03] been talking about over and over and
[6:05] over again. This is that Shimonetta 1984
[6:11] reality that we have entered into. If
[6:14] this passes today, this this could be
[6:18] I'm not even joking the end of the
[6:21] internet as we know it. This is
[6:23] literally creeping towards that
[6:24] dystopian like f uh future where you're
[6:27] no longer anonymous. You no longer could
[6:29] be, you know, a different person online.
[6:31] You could just be anonymous and just do
[6:32] whatever you want. You will now have a
[6:35] face attached to everything you do
[6:36] online. This is absolutely scary cuz
[6:39] it's a complete invasion of privacy. And
[6:42] the big thing that these companies want
[6:43] to do for you or why they would want
[6:45] your information is to be able to sell
[6:47] your data, but also be able to target
[6:49] you with certain ads and make profit off
[6:52] of you. Because let's just be blunt, we
[6:54] all know this. If you have been on the
[6:55] internet, you know that if you know
[6:57] certain websites track you and know what
[6:59] you're into, they will start throwing
[7:00] certain ads at you that you know you
[7:02] might be interested in. They figure out
[7:04] everything about you to be very
[7:05] predatory to basically target you with
[7:08] certain ads or marketing. and they're
[7:10] going to go to an extreme level with
[7:11] this, especially if they know exactly
[7:13] where you live, your full name, your
[7:15] age, and everything. It's going to get a
[7:17] lot worse. And then that's not
[7:18] including, for instance, data breaches
[7:20] and selling your data to third party uh
[7:22] companies or even countries at that.
[7:25] It's not good. So, yeah, everything
[7:27] about this is just bad freaking news.
[7:30] And the scariest part about this is that
[7:32] this is bipartisan. I want to reiterate
[7:35] this. This means that it's a both sides
[7:38] problem. This means it is Democrats and
[7:40] Republicans both coming together and
[7:42] being like, "This is good." And when you
[7:44] have two political parties that are
[7:46] always at each other's throats wanting
[7:48] to basically completely topple the
[7:50] other, coming together to agree on
[7:52] something, you know, this ain't good.
[7:54] And I've been talking about this over
[7:56] and over again that both sides want to
[7:58] censor the internet. Both sides want to
[8:00] kind of usher in complete surveillance
[8:02] and knowing what you're doing at any
[8:03] given time because it means that they
[8:05] will be able to control the narrative,
[8:07] be able to censor you and know what
[8:09] you're doing. I mean, we've already seen
[8:11] the dangers that this causes within the
[8:13] UK, within Europe. I mean, we've all
[8:16] seen it. We know what's going on in
[8:17] Europe. For instance, if you want to
[8:19] talk about illegal immigration, for
[8:20] instance, in Europe or UK, they will
[8:22] send police at your house or potentially
[8:24] censor you. You'll get a fine or
[8:25] whatever. they're more concerned about
[8:27] that than actually fixing real issues
[8:29] or, you know, addressing things to try
[8:31] to fix things. And that's what's going
[8:32] to happen here. And so, I think that
[8:34] this is a massive attack on freedom of
[8:37] expression, free speech, and also just
[8:40] your privacy itself. This is horrible.
[8:43] And this crazy thing about this is that
[8:46] this legitimately was slid under
[8:50] everybody's noses. And not many people
[8:52] have become aware of this until
[8:53] literally today. That's insane. Like
[8:56] that that's so freaking insane to me. So
[8:59] yeah, I honestly guys, the only thing
[9:02] you can really do at this moment is what
[9:04] uh Earl Maner actually posted here is to
[9:07] contact your representative on all that
[9:09] right here, which I will I will link
[9:11] this in the description. Please contact
[9:13] your representative for your state to
[9:15] basically not allow this to happen. It's
[9:18] honestly the only way to be able to stop
[9:20] this. But it it's so late. For instance,
[9:24] it's it's literally today. I don't even
[9:26] know if it would work. In the time you
[9:27] guys see this video, maybe the votes
[9:28] have already happened and it's already
[9:30] passed. Maybe it got denied. Hopefully,
[9:31] it did. But yeah, I'm just I'm sounding
[9:34] alarm here because this is a red flag.
[9:37] This is basically everything the buildup
[9:40] from like last year with Kids Online
[9:42] Safety Act and everything that has been
[9:45] built up to this very moment. And it's
[9:47] [snorts] finally here. It is finally
[9:49] here. and it's packaged in so many
[9:51] different bills to make it look like if
[9:53] you try to shoot this down, you seem to
[9:55] not care for kids safety. That's what
[9:58] they're doing here. Because I I want to
[10:00] really showcase the maliciousness of how
[10:02] it's just very disingenuous. They're
[10:04] naming this, for instance, the kids act
[10:05] and all that. They're like burying it in
[10:07] a title like that. So basically, it
[10:10] looks really bad if you're against this.
[10:12] If you're against this type of stuff,
[10:14] you legit don't want to protect kids.
[10:16] That that's what this looks like. And it
[10:18] shuts down any counterargument or any
[10:20] disscent or any politicians that want to
[10:22] speak out about this. It makes them look
[10:23] bad optically. It makes them look bad.
[10:25] And so it's going to make it to where
[10:27] they're going to lean heavily on just
[10:28] supporting it not to look bad optically
[10:30] cuz let's be honest, it's all about
[10:32] optics. That's what people view things
[10:34] as. And so optically they're going to
[10:36] vote for this because they don't want to
[10:37] be viewed like someone that doesn't care
[10:39] about kids. So yeah, just oh my oh my
[10:43] god. Like I I really hope there's some
[10:46] sensible people at the House today in
[10:48] the United States when they vote they
[10:51] shut this down. Please
[10:53] please don't let this pass. Please don't
[10:57] let this pass. I really really really
[10:59] really really really
[11:01] hope that this does not pass and that we
[11:05] find out like later today this gets shot
[11:08] down. Please, please, please, please,
[11:10] please. I will leave it at that though.
[11:13] I wanted to bring this up because this
[11:14] is uh
[11:16] yeah um if we find out today if this
[11:18] passes or not, I will make a follow-up
[11:22] video. So stay tuned to that. But uh
[11:24] with that being said, please subscribe,
[11:26] leave a like on the video, help spread
[11:28] this and all that because more people
[11:29] need to be aware of what's going on
[11:30] today. But be safe, guys. Talk to you
[11:33] later. She be outs.
