Big Tech billionaires + lobbyists are trying to oust Lina Khan, Chair of the FTC for doing her job. She has a long track record protecting the American people from monopolies and corporate abuse. To keep winning against Big Tech, we need to urge lawmakers to keep Khan.

🚨 Big Content monopolies are pushing new AI regulations they claim will protect us from deepfakes. But bills like NO FAKES and No AI FRAUD will actually steal artists' agency and creative voice—like Ursula in The Little Mermaid
Lawmakers should invest in child safety without sacrificing digital privacy, freedom of
information, or the very usability of the Internet. Instead of surveillance + censorship we need lawmakers to protect people’s privacy, bust Big Tech monopolies + work toward algorithmic justice. https://nostrcheck.me/media/961dc4bdb7a3010056a0eb08803a49ce3ae4d229d9bc8eb7f86af99309f4a9ee/2ce2fe5e6ab512daced8d0f04919906db68aff4cc8318421f0a7ff87d9836480.webp https://nostrcheck.me/media/961dc4bdb7a3010056a0eb08803a49ce3ae4d229d9bc8eb7f86af99309f4a9ee/24716e9547a34aca496948bfd113efa0f7e833ce9c86e9cff963d36483e32f90.webp https://nostrcheck.me/media/961dc4bdb7a3010056a0eb08803a49ce3ae4d229d9bc8eb7f86af99309f4a9ee/660446cc1620fe591c232c70644b626f3d433718cd2eda25821f7d515430379d.webp https://nostrcheck.me/media/961dc4bdb7a3010056a0eb08803a49ce3ae4d229d9bc8eb7f86af99309f4a9ee/06a1daa13fd5438ab198251cb6fcd9aa7c3e532cb04377eb942a3e88cf4cbce7.webp

As Palestinians in Gaza experience escalating, brutal military assaults social media giants like Meta continue to suppress their voices: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBKLjCoSuW5/?igsh=MWVwbGFkZGh4cXQzag==
Sign the petition demanding the FTC continue the regulatory process to protect privacy it initiated two years ago now, before the election. It is far past time to put protections in place that collectively protect us all and our rights to privacy.

The harms––from cybercrime to anyone being able to track our location––can have far-reaching, lifelong, or life-ending consequences. https://www.aclu-wa.org/docs/harms-data-abuse
Core privacy rights are being challenged
The FTC had been sitting on its hands+ with no privacy regulations in place, the data exploitation and misuse by Big Tech and data brokers is only getting worse.
Data brokers sell our private info to the highest bidder including abusers who can use it to stalk, threaten, and harass anyone.
The DELETE act could give survivors control over their data and could mean major harm reduction. Petition 🔗 in bio!
Airline price gouging as Milton approached the FL coastline is atrocious + highlights a deeper issue: companies leveraging market conditions/consumer behavior data to exploit people- esp in times of crises. From flights to groceries, tech is used to inflate costs at our expense.
Nice! So helpful and needed 😃👏
It's vital that we continue to call out Big Tech complicity in this genocide and keep the pressure on, and even more vital that we listen to people closest to the pain. https://nostrcheck.me/media/961dc4bdb7a3010056a0eb08803a49ce3ae4d229d9bc8eb7f86af99309f4a9ee/61288ee7cbce594cc954df0c1d27620b4f03ea5cb4052d6b2ff081704c2b9de6.webp
