Tubefilter: In Congress, Ro Khanna proposes a “Creator Bill of Rights”. “As the creator economy continues to grow up, industry operatives need stronger protections to secure their shared livelihood. A new Creator Bill of Rights aims to provide those invaluable safeguards. That’s the name of a proposal introduced by Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA), who is working with Creators 4 Mental […]

@nixCraft @Daojoan I agree only to some degree:

• Children need to be taught proper #TechLiteracy & #MediaLiteracy!

• Flatout #bans are at best an insult to the intellect of minors and most likely complete refusal of reality when kids can get a smartphone for under €100 new and even lesser used for cash, and a pre-activated #SIM (or #eSIM-Card) for less than €50 if they know whom to ask…

• Teaching them proper #alternatives and understanding the perverse incentives of #AntisocialMedia is critial.

Unfortunately, most #parents are #TechIlliterate and #MediaIlliterate…

• …And almost all #politicans don't want #literacy in #media and #tech either!

Needless to say #TechBans are unenforceable and will only remove any "bright area if control"…

• Teach Tech Literacy and be honest to them why shite like #Roblox is bad!

This may be considered #HotTakes by some, I consider these #based: (no ragebait inteded!)

If you have a problem with these, please kindly fuck off in silence!

This list is non-exhaustive...

• #NoHumanIsillegal: #FerriesNotFrontex!
• #PNCHNZS! Being a racist, fascist or otherwise shit person is a choice. People can choose to deradicalize, but not 'choose' not to be targeted by Neonazis!
• #NSAfDverbotSofort - no excuses!
• #TransRightsAreHumanRights
• #HousingFirst, cuz #HumanRights are not negotiable, but precondition to even consider negotiations!
• #UBI instead of #MeansTesting; Cuz survival is not optional!
• #Education is a #HumanRight and should be provided to anyone without any paywalling or charges. This includes access to #Textbooks, which should be provided #DRM-free. All education material should be publicly available and it's creation and updates be paid by the public just like schools.
• #ClothesHaveNoGender
• #PublicTransport should be #free, #accessible and publicly funded and run.
• All #infrastructure is a natural monopoly and should be publicly run and financed solely by either transit fees or public spending.
• #accessibility should be mandatory without exceptions. Paywalling it should be criminalized as a hatecrime.
• Every #home should have access to #DrinkingWater, Sewage Handling, #electricity and #fiber #internet. IDGAF if it's at some remote island or desert oasis!
• #HealthCare is a #HumanRight, not a commodity!
• #Politicans should have to obey the same #laws re: secondary income as #PublicServants and be barred from recieving any other #compensation, #bonuses or have any other income beyond the compensation for their post.
• #Politicans should only be paid #MinimumWage!Wage
• Everyone should have to contribute to #SocialSecurity programs and in return, everyone gets eligible. That means no exceptions for #billionaires and other rich people. If I have to afford ~ 20% of my paycheck for #healthcare then so can all the #Banksters!
• #MinimumWage must be able to afford not mere survival, but actually be sufficient to afford #downpayment on a #home and not just #rent. It should also be automatically be adjusted with #inflation and not be a political bargaining chip!
• Denying people access to legal #work is a crime against humanity. People should have a right to fair and non-discriminatory access to employment regardless of legal status.
• #StockTrading should be regulated as #Gambling.
• Advertising Gambling or using Gambling / #PayToLoose / "#PayToWin" / #P2W mechanics to minors should be as illegal as advertising cigarettes and liquor to them.
• Banning or age restricting #LGBTQIA* content as "#AdultContent" should be illegal. #QueerErasure is indefensible. If you're to prudish to accept that #LoveIsLove then that's a "You" Problem!
• #Cyberfascism needs to be outlawed and Corporations like #Palantir need to be disbanded, their assets stripped and their employees jailed for crimes against humanity. They are morally indefensible!
• #BanBillionaires, strip them off their assets and wealth and redistribute it. #Billionaires should be sentenced to #CommunityService for life as means to (at least partially) undo harm caused.
• #SuperUselessVehicles should be disincentivized and instead any #incentives and #subsidies should be given only to #PersonalLightVehicles of classes #L2e, #L5e, #L6e & #L7e.
• #SexworkIsWork!
• #CSAM is indefensible and authorities that shutdown Pedo Forums should be mandated to #delete [and report] all such content at the hosters and get them to delete it. This includes Kiwi Farms which got fired by Gandi [french registrar] for hosting CSAM!
• It should be illegal to enforce foreign laws overseas. Yes this includes "#Embargos" from the #USA!
• #Trump is a fascist POS and a bootlicker of #Putin!
• #FuckICE
• #MethanolFuelcell > #LithiumCobaltBattery
• #Tabs > #Spaces
• #TSV > #CSV > #MicrosoftExcel
• #Markdown > #RTF
• #OpenDocument > #OOXML
• #PDF > #MicrosoftWord
• #git > #subversion
• #IRC & #Mumble, #MailingList > #discord
• #XMPP+#OMEMO > any proprietary messenger
• #PGP/MIME acceptance should be mandatory per law for all #eMails in #business and towards public offices
• Every System that has a #clock inside has to self-adjust it correctly without user intervention. I don't care if it uses a time signal like DCF77, GNSS or NTP. Computers must syncronize their hardware clock to [Unixtime](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time) regardless of the used OS
• #Police should only be allowed to carry and use what law-abiding citizens are to. If you don't trust your neighbour with a #gun, why would you trust a stranger who doesn't even have to evidence proper storage, training, proficiency and isn't subject to due diligence?
• #QualifiedImmunity is #PoliceState horeshite and must never be allowed and retroactively canned. If you don't want #accountability or #consequences for those in power, you are a bootlicker.
• Long-lasting peace in the #MiddleEast will most likely only happen if a unified #laicist nation compromising of #Israel and #Palestine gets built. It's just currently not intended to happen by both sides!
• #Ukraine is the #LitmusTest for #EU & #NATO. If Ukraine doesn't win beyond the #StatusQuoAnteBellum (1994-2011) and doesn't get EU & NATO membership it'll either be destroyed by #Russia in Putin's neo-czarist ambitions and thus will legitimize & normalize the Russian #CrimeOfAggression, which will then focus on #Baltics and espechally #Finland. Already the western #cowardice of not following through on the #BudapestMemorandum puts the #NPT and the trustworthyness of the USA, #UK and The West in general into question.
• A #TotalEmbargo against Russia is long overdue - including a #SeaBlockade, not just against the #ShadowFleet which poses a statistically inevitable risk for the #envoirment!
• #NuclearPower is not #renewable and using precious radioactive elements to boil water to spin a turbine is an insult to #physics! #Renewables should be mandatory and we can talk about #Fusion once #ITER actually evidently works and is able to sustain net positive energy output into the grid.
• "#AI" is #WastefulComputing and should be considered an #EnvoirmentalCrime and #CrimeAgainstHumanity, with all the prosecution it entails!
  
• The only people that have a 'right' to be 'proud' of their #citizenship are those that actually had to put in effort to get #naturalized. People who won the #BirthLottery are disqualified.
• Also anyone who is "proud" of their citizenship by birth evidently has achieved nothing on their own worth to be proud of! Even if it's just graduating school, driving license, forklift certification or some kind of art.
• We need #RightToRepair, not only but espechally for #electronics! This includes tight mandates to provide #parts, #tools, #documentation and #support under #FRAND [fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory] terms.
• #Patents on #Software, espechally #GameMechanics, should be illegal. No #patent should be issued without evidence of it being a genuine, new #invention with a demonstrable prototype. If #Kickstarter wouldn't accept it, then neither should any #PatentOffice!
• #Patents of lifeforms and DNA have to be outlawed.
• #Copyright to something should cease the moment the copyright holder refuses to offer the copyrighted work under FRAND terms. If buying isn't ownership than #piracy isn't #theft. Also #OneTimePurchase options [for a specific version] should be mandatory by law and #subscriptions only be allowed for products and services that actually incur costs to upkeep (i.e. bandwith and storage for hosting/streaming). Designing something as "#LiveService" when it has no reason (i.e. refusing to sell physical copies) to should be deemed a fraudulent circumvention of it.
• "#ClientsideAnticheat" is #malware and needs to be prosecuted as such. Any "#AntiCheat" should be Server-Sided only.
• #PriceGouging must be prosecuted harder, espechally when it comes to #utilities.
• Just like #FuelPrices at a #GasStation, so should #ChargingStations be mandated to publish their pricing publicly in realtime and not discriminate customers!
• Everyone should have a #RightToBanking without discrimination. Any closure of accounts must be legitimized by actual criminal activity (i.e. money laundering, fraud, terrorism financing, ...) and go through due process with appeals.
• Everyone should have a right to free, unseizeable #ID documents without mandating #biometrics or other privacy invasions! These should be eligible as Travel #Passport and people should have global #FreedomOfMovement only restricted by an actual, individual judge ruling that went through proper oversight and appeals. Duplicate Issues to avoid Visa Conflicts (with duplicate Serial Numbers!) should be offered and granted upon request.
• #Gender does not belong into ID documents! Just like weight, hair colour, religion, occupation and address don't!

@mimir You can thank the #CopyrightMafia and #Antiintellectual #politicans who refuse to understand #Education as #CriticalInfrastructure for that.

• Personally I only buy #DRM-free #eBooks!

@mechanix @delta @randy_ @gaufff @signalapp also exempting #police, #miljtary and #politicans is inexcuseable.

Seriously, how often must #Zensursula assault #HumanRights and #CivilRights until #BVerfG bars her from public offices for her being blatantly parading unconstitutional shit takes?

@etchedpixels But I guess #EU #politicans want to sabotage #domestic #industry and #innvation just as they did with #solar...

A different look at #JeffreyEpstein: How about he was a #russianAsset! #Epstein and #GhislaineMaxwell used #minors to seduce #US #politicans in order to #blackmail them later. How about if #BillClinton and #DonaldTrump are among #Maxwell targets? How about #Epstein was killed by the #Russian #MFS (former #KGB) so he want blow-up the network?! Don't get me wrong -- I am sorry for all the minors, but this much bigger! #spy #sabotage #melania #trump #fuckPutin #putin

@Sheep_Overboard #musk now supports all right-wing radical parties in the US and across Europe. He thinks he could buy power with his money and #politicans are up for sale for the highest bidder, consequently #taxpayers are flushed down the drain :blobcatcoffee: #devastating reality.

@KellicTiger @arstechnica That's why it's important to fight #Cyberfacism and make such bs #CareerSuicide for #Politicans!

• If I wanted to live in a #facist #PoliceState I'd move to #NorthKorea or the "P.R." #China instead.

• No matter the pretext, #WireTapping IS the illicit activity and I'm done arguing against #Zensursula-style #UsefulIdiots, I just "#GearUp" and level up by using @torproject / #Tor almost exclusively for everything!

When #facists attack #HumanRights it's not correct to #argue, but to arm and proactively prevent their bs from working!

• Do #CryptoParties and normalize not just using Tor, but teach #TechLiteracy to "#Normies" and get @tails_live / @tails / #Tails into the hands of average people!

@jeffowski EXACTLY!

Even better: Force #politicans to live off #MinimumWage and don't allow them to get any other #income during or after their term!

I refuse to answer what is a woman. I am a #woman and its not my job to define other people. What #politicans should be doing is refusing the question. That's not their job either. Their job is to ask the #Science, #Health and #Medical to define it. THEN make decisions.
Using my first post as a good one 😂

1/ #SouthAfrica's ills, a hypothesis -

It seems that #SouthAfrica collectively has lost her self-confidence and in consequence faith into the future of the #society and #country.

All the analyses swirling around, focusing on #politicans, complaining how the #ANC has lost the moral compass and decrying the disappointment with the #opposition #parties not being able to significantly improve the situation are missing the main point: The parties are just a mirror of the society as a whole.

@greenpeace I don't believe that choonams are smart enough to survive the doom of their owen making.

My neighbours debate with me that china won't cut their #co2 , so if we do, we lose #economicalpower! We are germany.
My other neighbour doesn't believe that #globalwarming even exists.
They #airport Frankfurter is happy that the flights are almost back to precovid Numbers. #Politicans and the #Police just defended Bulldozers to get to a coal deposit.

We are to stupid to survive!

#Speculation, interest rates, greed, no build of public #housing or support for #coops.
No mystery as to why #rents and #houseprices keep rising.
In #NovaScotia also exacerbated by the sudden interest in living here.
After, every year a net loss of population, for decades, there are 10,000 new folks moving into my #city every year - looking for someplace to live!!!

We need better public #housing #policy and committed #politicans (we don't have either in power)

https://breachmedia.ca/the-global-money-pool-that-soaked-canadas-hope-of-affordable-housing/

There are so many wonderful and fascinating things in this world that we could and no doubt should be focusing our attention on instead of the soul-sucking, ego driven power games that politicians are playing. I resent every second I am distracted by their malignant ugliness.
