UK digital infrastructure is on shaky ground. Our dependency on Big Tech must end. We're being ripped off and putting our systems at risk of foreign interference. ORG's @jim.killock.org.uk explains why we need Digital Sovereignty with open source tech. ➡️ www.openrightsgroup.org/publications...

The use of AI in asylum decision-making is likely unlawful. These tools rewrite interviews, choosing what to include and exclude. Without knowing this, asylum applicants can't be sure accurate information is used to inform decisions. 📺️ ORG's @sarahalsherif.bsky.social explains the legal opinion.

VPNs are vital for online safety, but they're now in the firing line. People have turned to them to protect their privacy, rather than splurge their data to unregulated age verification providers following the Online Safety Act. But they have an important role to guard against predators online ⬇️

We went outside the national police summit and this is what happened... When we tried to ask delegates to talk on camera, no one wanted to. Why? Because constant monitoring doesn’t feel safe. It feels intrusive 🤷‍♂️ #SafetyNotSurveillance #BanCrimePredictingTech

The Online Safety Act is trashing free speech 👁️‍🗨️ Automated filters designed to blot out 'illegal' content will result in over-moderation. This has serious consequences, particularly when combined with the proscription of Palestine Action. Hear from ORG's @sarachitseko.bsky.social and James Baker ⬇️

Blink and you’ll have never seen it in the first place 🫥 Age verification rules in the Online Safety Act are snapping parts of the Internet out of existence. But it’s not what you think (porn)! News on conflicts: GONE. Support for sexual health and smoking: GONE. Watch how censorship works ⬇️

Twitchers. TikTokkers. Youtubbers. Age verification could be about to hit livestreaming. All under-18s will have engagement and self-expression crushed by Ofcom's proposals. There must a risk-based approach, not a blanket ban. Reply to the consultation ➡️ action.openrightsgroup.org/online-safet...

Age walls could be erected at the government's whim. New Henry VIII powers would give Ministers the ability to impose age verification across the Internet. And it goes way beyond social media. We'll have to surrender our ID to unregulated providers for everyday access to information and services.

Today, outside the national policing conference members of the Safety not Surveillance coalition went to deliver a simple message… Communities don't want more surveillance. They want real safety. @amnestyuk.bsky.social #SafetyNotSurveillance #BanCrimePredictingTech

Content takedowns under the Online Safety Act could go further ⚠️ Damaging free expression has knock-on effects. It limits what we get to know about in the public interest and how we can hold power to account. ORG's @sarachitseko.bsky.social and James Baker discuss the impact on live-streaming ⬇️

ORG and the Safety Not Surveillance coalition hit the streets of London. We sent the message that so-called 'crime-predicting' tech must be BANNED! Because we have the right to be presumed innocent, not predicted guilty. Read more ➡️ www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/why-pre...

Your vote hits different in a primary. 🗳️💥 200,000 show up in November. Maybe. But only 40,000 decide who makes it there. Grab 100 friends. Grab 500. The primary is where your vote has outsized impact. Low turnout = high leverage. Stop waiting for the general. Start swinging the election now.

While banning social media seems like the easy solution, in fact it's letting Big Tech off the hook and placing the burden to protect themselves on children and families. That's how we see it. What do you think?
