ALERT! RINOs Are Trying To Pass Mandatory Digital ID To Post On Social Media!
While proponents argue these policies will help protect young users from harmful content and excessive screen time, they also accelerate the push toward mandatory digital ID systems that could undermine online anonymity. As governments and corporations increasingly require users to verify their identity to access platforms, the internet may shift toward a more monitored and controlled digital space, raising concerns about privacy and personal freedom.
If passed, the bill would prohibit algorithm-based content recommendations for minors unless a parent explicitly opts in. Additionally, it would block social media access for children between midnight and 6 a.m. and impose a daily usage limit of one hour. Tong emphasizes that parents must make an active decision regarding their child’s access to algorithms. “If an individual parent decides that they want their kid to have access to algorithms, that they can handle it, they can do that, but they have to affirmatively make that decision,” he explains, adding that the process must involve more than a simple click-through agreement.
Many social media platforms already claim to restrict access for users under 13, but enforcement is largely ineffective. While HB6857 acknowledges that any age verification requirements must be “commercially feasible,” Tong dismisses the idea that social media giants lack the resources to implement effective measures. “It’s up to these companies, which make trillions of dollars every year off of all of us, to figure out how to effectively age gate, verify the age of young people, and to verify parent consent,” he states. “We know that just putting a page up that says, ‘Are you 18 or not?’ and clicking ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ doesn’t do it. It’s not enough.”
Connecticut’s bill is part of a broader national trend pushing for tighter age verification rules, many of which rely on digital ID systems that could make anonymous online access increasingly difficult.
Nebraska’s LB383, the Parental Rights in Social Media Act, would require social media companies to implement “reasonable age verification” to block minors from accessing platforms unless a parent provides consent. According to Unicameral Update, acceptable verification methods would include digital IDs and third-party age authentication services, though these entities would be required to delete personal data after verification.
Despite assurances about data deletion, these laws raise concerns about how much personal information users will have to provide just to access everyday online services. Under LB383, minors could still create social media accounts—but only if their parents first verify their own age and submit a signed consent form. Attorney General Mike Hilgers sees social media engagement as a calculated business model, arguing, “These are not on-accident algorithms that are just sort of inadvertently bringing in children. These are by design because some of the most lucrative customers you can find in this area are children.”
Critics of digital ID expansion warn that once identity checks become standard, they could be applied beyond social media, gradually eroding the ability to browse the internet freely and anonymously.
This will most definitely cause many Americans to ABANDON social media platforms and services, and lead to more people using P2P and "Dark Web" services and platforms! It would be a good idea for Americans to have multiple offline backups of all the media they wish to collect and have, as you never know when the internet might become too much a liability and digital prison to use.
