   @david_colquhoun when criminal is defined as "librarian" or "journalist" how does your analysis change?

     I can't agree that "online age verification" is invasive. Unless a good way to do it is found, criminals will continue to corrupt kids.

     Great to see the American Library Association directly contesting the current wave of book banning censorship.

     Again, this is the kind of "crime" that institutionalized invasion of privacy -- whether it be online age verification laws or client side scanning -- will be used to detect and prosecute. We need to connect these things quickly, and repeatedly, as we push back.
