EU:
We want to be sovereign and independent from US tech giants
Also EU:
Our ID verification system relies on US tech giants
If I understood this, you'll be forced to use this age verification app in the EU if you want to visit sites, stores, or other apps to see content or purchase products, you'll be tied to Google's Android and their PlayStore, you won't be able to install this in a different OS that's not from Google. Basically forbidding the use of grapene OS and other similar android operating systems.
Under the guise that kids are unsafe on the internet, they're taking everything away, why? One might think censorship or invasion of privacy but the simple answer is they're forcing businesses to implement the infrastructure needed for a Digital ID!
No point introducing a digital ID if no one has a need to use one, and if tech companies haven't adapted their infrastructure to use them it would be a completely useless endeavour!
The question you should be asking is why do we need a digital ID?
You might think this is only happening in Britain or the EU but America is also implementing a similar act called the 'Kids online safety act'.
The Kids Online Safety Act is the US equivalent of the EU's Digital Services Act and UK's Online Safety Act. If passed, it will lead to digital identity, total deanonymization of the internet, and massive censorship. It was reintroduced to Congress May 2025.
The entire Western world is moving as quickly as possible to usher in the WEF's plan, as usual it's under the guise of "safety". Like 9/11 and like COVID, they're systematically removing every freedom we have!
These laws are 'orders from above'!
There's no other way that so many countries around the world, would have parties trying to implement basically the same set of laws, all at the same time, except that is been decided at the WEF, UN, or similar.
The people pushing for them are traitors, working for somebody other than their people!

UK’s Online Safety Act just came into effect, promising a “safer” internet. **It’s a lie.**
This law threatens YOUR privacy, free speech, and democracy and paves the way for a surveilled, censored web.
**Want to know how bad it gets?**
What does the Act do? It creates a new “duty of care” on all online services to police user content. This means:
✅ Platforms must proactively detect and remove “illegal” and “harmful” content.
✅ Age verification to block under-18s from adult material.
✅ Private messaging apps must scan messages for banned content.
WhatsApp and Signal warn this poses an unprecedented threat to encryption and privacy.
The net is cast wide. This isn’t just about Big Tech.
The law covers any site that allows users to share or interact. That includes forums, messaging apps, cloud services, open-source platforms, even Wikipedia. Wikimedia has already launched a legal challenge.
**Censorship and Chilled Speech:**
The Act pressures platforms to delete “harmful” content, even if legal, leading to automated takedowns of art, satire, or dissent.
New offenses for “serious psychological harm” risk criminalizing heated debates.
Platforms will over-censor to avoid fines, stifling free speech.
**State control of speech:**
Ofcom can now order takedowns or block entire websites for non-compliance.
The Secretary of State can shape what content is prioritised or suppressed.
***The UK government now has indirect control over online speech***
With the election of Donald Trump, the unraveling of traditional capitalism became undeniable, giving rise to a bifurcated future—one dominated by cyberpunk neoliberalism(The world that poor must be existing;but the poor is not recognised as human), the other by radical social justice and collectivist ideals
Honestly I’m surprised that the EU didn’t choose WeChat instead
