Red alert! For the last six months, EFF, Fight for the Future, ACLU, Woodhull Foundation, and dozens of other groups have been sounding the alarm about several #BadInternetBills that have been put forward in Congress. We’ve made it clear that these bills are terrible ideas, but Congress is now considering packaging them together—possibly into must-pass legislation. We're organizing to keep them from sneaking these bad internet bills through.

This community is for news stories, opinion pieces, and action links about these bad internet bills. Please help get the word out!

And if you use microblogging software like Mastodon, please also check out the #BadInternetBills hashtag.

Worse for everyone except for the greedy, power-hungry assholes who can't stand the thought of people having anything resembling freedom and want everything to be a vector for their psychopathic desire to control everyone and everything.

Unfortunately, much of our government (and even more of its security state bureaucratic apparatus) is comprised of exactly those assholes.
