Contact your MEPs to tell them to vote no and scuttle this bill, and to amend #StopKillingGames into the Digital Fairness Act

One of the things that I found the most offensive were how some companies are apparently exploring potential for "liveness checks" which alongside age verification would require children to regularly take videos of themselves to prove their realness.
And you don't need me to tell you how completely awful it is for children to get into the habit of sending video of themselves to strangers upon request.
