"What (the govt saying it will 'protect' us) will actually mean is we have to digitally verify ourselves to participate" (Alan Miller)

Stop digital ID and age verification systems that function as identity checks, plus device-level surveillance on apps and phones in the UK

Protect parental control and privacy

Protect the open internet #together

#dontidtheinternet

Minister Lisa Nandy says the Govt plans new law requiring major tech companies to build government-mandated “protections” directly into phones and tablets

So how will people use the internet without surrendering their identity information?

We don’t want to ID the internet - and we don't want our personal devices turned into government-controlled checkpoints

A “social media ban for children” ultimately risks ID checks for all of us before we can speak online

Parents already have tools to protect their children. Children do not buy smartphones for themselves

Adults choose to provide devices and decide how they are used

If a parent wants parental controls, they can enable them today

There is nothing safe about a society where ordinary people must be identified, monitored, and recorded simply to participate

'Andy Burnham' 'Lisa Nandy' you have NO MANDATE for this "ban" and ushering us towards ID checks to get online

BURNHAM'S "BACK DOOR" DIGITAL ID?

"We will be the first in the world to introduce a comprehensive social media ban for children" - Nandy

Andy Burnham ' &'Lisa Nandy' you have NO democratic mandate to usher us towards "papers please" for the internet

We should not have to digitally verify to participate in everyday life

A "social media ban" really just means "Papers Please to get online"

This kind of radical, intrusive change was NOT in your manifesto either

Nor did Andy Burnham even fight a general election!

You have no democratic mandate to ID the internet

"PAPERS PLEASE" TO GET ONLINE:
"Andy Burnham who made you God?"

A "social media ban" really just means "Papers Please to get online"

Age checks do not stay confined to children - they apply to ALL, and likely mean IDENTITY CHECKS

You have no mandate 'Andy Burnham'

When the govt threatens to "keep us all safe" we know what that means!

Censorship and surveillance if the track record is anything to go by

Meanwhile criminals released early 'Andy Burnham'

#dontidtheinternet

"Papers Please" to get online?

We say NO! 'Andy Burnham'

Social media platforms already know an extraordinary amount about their users

They can already use AI to infer whether someone is a child or teenager to a high degree of accuracy

Before putting millions of adults through an ID checkpoint to access social media, the Government and the platforms should have to explain why the information they already have isn't enough - and how requiring every single user to prove their age using government-issued ID can possibly be:

- Necessary
- Proportionate
- Or indeed safe in itself - given databases are compromised ALL THE TIME

You have no mandate to turn social media into ID checkpoint for all

"Papers Please" to get online?

Andy Burnham didn't even fight a leadership contest, never mind a general election

He has NO MANDATE to push a massive intrusion that never featured in Labour's manifesto either

Stand #together, this attack on privacy, anonymity and ultimately speech affects us all

#dontidtheinternet

Minister Lisa Nandy says the Govt plans new law requiring major tech companies to build government-mandated “protections” directly into phones and tablets

Nandy wants to take state control beyond websites and platforms - and right into the devices you own

We say: stop digital ID and age verification systems that function as identity checks, plus device-level surveillance on apps and phones in the UK. Protect parental control and privacy. Protect the open internet.
