#UK's Online #Safety #Bill finally passed by parliament.

The government (#Britain) has said the bill does not ban end-to-end #encryption."
"Tech #companies have said #scanning #messages and end-to-end encryption are fundamentally incompatible."

Who is right?

Oh, I'm seeing some mainstream coverage of the Internet Safety Bill and they're saying things like "It's a step forwards" and "We have to make young people safe" and "The internet is an addiction" and "children need to be protected by this bill" and "this bill will make the online world safer"

They have found space for nobody saying anything bad about this bill at all.

What a load of blatant crazy people talking crazy stuff.

The bill is a terrible awful law which will do nothing to protect anyone while being onerous on service providers. It it unenforceable, poorly defined, will drive internet business outside the UK where we have less control of it, and will expose people to more dangers online.

If you use the internet from the UK you better be prepared to be more spied upon by business and stalked by the state than ever before. Maybe get your ID out every time you wanna leave Facebook.

If you run an internet business in the UK you better be prepared to move abroad. Though not to the US or the EU, they have similar terrible awful plans.

But you would not get that impression watching the BBC this morning at all.

Voting rights groups raise alarm about House GOP introducing ‘Big Lie Bill’

Dubbed the “#Big #Lie #Bill” by critics, the American Confidence in Elections (#ACE) Act is spearheaded by Committee on House Administration Chair Bryan Steil (R-Wis.) and includes nearly 50 standalone bills from the chamber’s GOP members.

The Declaration for American Democracy (DFAD), a coalition of over 260 groups, said in a statement it was “deeply concerned” about the bill, warning that “the benign-sounding name of this legislation cloaks an extremist, anti-voter effort to increase the role of megadonors in our elections and encourage deliberate barriers to make it harder for eligible voters to cast their ballot.”

# NY designates state a ‘safe haven’ for trans youth, families and health providers

*
#NewYork #Governor #KathyHochul #signed a #bill into #law on Sunday that #designates the #state as a #SafeHaven for #transgender #youth, #families, and #HealthCare #providers.
* The bill
#prohibits state and #local #LawEnforcement from #cooperating with #investigations into families who seek #GenderAffirming #care for their #trans #children.
* It also
#protects the #health #information of transgender people who seek care in New York, and it #prohibits #discrimination against transgender people in #employment, #housing, and #public #accommodations.
* The bill was passed in response to a record number of anti-LGBTQ+ bills being introduced nationwide.
Hochul said that the bill "sends a clear message that New York is a place where everyone is welcome, regardless of their gender identity."*
* The bill was passed by the New York State
#Assembly and #Senate with #overwhelming #bipartisan #support.
* It is the first bill of its kind in the United States.
* The bill is being hailed by LGBTQ+ advocates as a major victory.
* However, some conservative groups have criticized the bill, arguing that it will harm children.

I write in strong opposition to #Assembly #Bill #886, the ill-named “California Journalism Preservation Act” — legislation that, while well-intentioned, is in fact counterproductive.

The legislation extorts one industry cartel on behalf of another. While Big Tech (two companies in this case) deserves sanctions for misbehavior in other realms, this bill is nothing but a link tax. Among other flaws, it would seriously degrade the essential value of the open Internet, with major negative implications for freedom of expression.

As for helping #journalism, AB 886 is misguided at best. It would send money to some of the nation’s worst financial manipulators, the hedge funds that have bought up, looted, and are well on the way to destroying most of what remains of local daily journalism in #California.

Port Side Of The Pt Reyes

The Pt Reyes has been one of my favorite photographic subjects ever since I discovered her washed up on the shore of Tomales Bay many years ago. I don't know her history but she has been sitting here dacaying for years.
That process was hastened by a photographer just recently when he set the stern on fire and burnt the back of the boat almost completely. See the full image here: https://fineartamerica.com/featured/port-side-of-the-pt-reyes-bill-gallagher.html #PortSideOfThePtReyes #Bill #AYearForArt #BuyIntoArt #shipwreck

Port Side Of The Pt Reyes

The Pt. Reyes is an old fishing boat that broke away from it's pier during a winter storm and is now resting on a small sandbar in Tomales Bay near Inverness California.
The foreground of the image is filled dune grass and sand from the sandbar she is resting on.
The port side of the shiphas been mostly torn away over the years from vandals. Most recently the stern was accidentally set on fire by an over zelous photographer. 
There is a bit of grafitti on the bow, all of the windows have been broken out and it has been gutted. The affects of weather and human interaction is hastening it's destruction.
