Hey, this is worth taking like 60 seconds to fill out. Its not a commitment towards anything, its just to help the Free Speech Coalition gauge interest in such a credit union
Please share this around! This could end up being huge!
The Free Speech Coalition is serious about starting an adult industry credit union. Part of this is being able to show regulators that enough people would use it, so please fill out this form if you're interested!
(Yes, credit unions can issue credit cards!)

the bill is 'H.R.8250'
while usually i'd take a "wait and see" approach to a bill that has only been introduced, the us govt is moving FAST wrt age verification, so please, contact your representatives (particularly the house) and advocate against AV on device laws

Hey some good news!!
Please keep supporting groups like FSC, and please keep advocating for data privacy rights!
Just a reminder that they still intend to do this, dont let the backlash die down, keep cancelling your subscription.
You did it! π₯³
European Parliament just decided that Chat Control 1.0 must stop.
This means on April 6, 2026, Gmail, LinkedIn, Microsoft and other Big Techs must stop scanning your private messages in the EU. #PrivacyWins πͺ
Hey if youre in the EU you should act on this ASAP, theyre really trying to ram this through
See you all in two weeks when they'll inevitably try again.
But for now, this is good news! Thanks to everyone who called, mailed or spread the word. I know it's tiring, but there's more of us than there are of them.

πͺπΊ π¨11 AM #ChatControl vote: They want to crush our privacy. Pirate @marketkag.bsky.social won't surrender, and neither should you. π΄ββ οΈ
Call your wavering socialist, liberal and national conservative MEPs right now. Win or lose today, they need to know we will NEVER accept mass surveillance of [β¦]
Read this article while you have the time. A little resistance can go a long way.
Keep protesting, keep calling your reps to oppose all forms of age verification, and keep your communities together.
Damn it.
Well, you guys know the drill!
#SaveSpeech
Well, not surprised it didn't last. Back to calling and emailing your MEPs, everyone: fightchatcontrol.eu

also, my understanding is that the US senate will be voting on the SAVE ACT/ SAVE AMERICA ACT
-TOMORROW- (saturday the 20th)
so PLEASE call and yell at your reps about that one specifically literally right now
It appears we ended up with 962 (!!!) Opposed witness slips regarding HB5511 which would require all operating systems to have a baked-in age attestation that can be fed to apps and websites, which is an awful idea and a technical implementation nightmare.
Hard to overstate how bad this is. This would be *national legislation to aid book banning*. The time to call your reps and say you are against HR 7661 is NOW.
So just to be clear for this one
LIST all of this from every country including ours and SEND
SEND THESE OUT WARD TOWARDS YOUR REPS AND SENATORS NOW
This is a red alert people you know the drill
When calling your reps, bring this up to them. It's not a hypothetical, it's a real and genuine threat.
We watched the Senate Commerce Committee hearing on Section 230 today so you donβt have to. Hereβs what you missed!

Please continue to call and physically mail your legislators and advocate for protecting section 230, especially after today's hearing
π¨ THE SENATE WANTS TO GUT SECTION 230 AND CENSOR THE INTERNET! DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS ARE UNITING BEHIND THE WORST TECH POLICY IDEA EVER π¨
Use BadInternetBills.com RIGHT NOW to email and call your senators.
Tell them to PROTECT SECTION 230, defend online speech, and pass a damn privacy law.
π‘ Without Section 230, powerful people who can afford lawyers could get pretty much anything they don't like censored off the Internet. Epstein files? Forget it. Videos of police violence? Gone. MeToo posts? Blocked before they're even posted.
It would be a massive gift to the most corrupt elites
Some things to know:
π‘ Gutting Section 230 would actually HELP big tech monopolies like Meta and Google by killing off smaller competitors like Bluesky, Reddit, etc
π‘ Section 230 is the only protection we have against state laws attempting to ban speech about abortion, gender affirming care, etc

RIGHT NOW: The Senate Commerce Committee, chaired by Ted Cruz, is holding a hearing pushing dangerous legislation to repeal Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.

They meant HR 7661, but yes, call your House reps and tell them to OPPOSE this bill. It's a book banning bill that violates the 1st Amendment, and can be used to target the LGBTQ+ community. #SaveSpeech

This is going to happen tomorrow!
This Has to be Stopped! Call them, Annoy them! Make them Deny this Bill to repeal Section 230!
More later, but we keep fighting because this was NOT a guarantee. This was republicans licking cult member boots, and it was democrats calling them out on it.
This bill is unconstitutional and a significant overstep in congressional authority.
Use your voice. Use data. Emphasize that Congressβs job is not state curriculum. This bill is congress dictating what is and isnβt legal in your local schools. Itβs hateful and bigoted. Itβs an anti-trans bill that promotes bullying.
