The GUARD Act may look like a child-safety bill, but in practice it’s an age-gating mandate that could impose a mass censorship and surveillance regime on nearly every public-facing AI chatbot. Tell Congress to oppose the GUARD Act today. eff.org/deeplinks/2025/11/surv

@eff Honestly, I can't read this without substituting:

"A new bill sponsored by Sen. Hawley (D-MO), Sen. Blumenthal (D-CT), Sen. Britt (R-AL), Sen. Warner (D-VA), and Sen. Murphy (D-CT) would require heroin dealers to verify all users’ ages, prohibit minors from using heroin, and implement steep criminal penalties for heroin use that promotes or solicits certain harms."

I've just substituted one dangerous societal ill for another, here.
