This week, Chamber of Progress apologized to California Assemblymember Alan Lowenthal after their lobbyist called the legislature "soft" and suggested they “don’t write shitty bills” in response to Lowenthal’s bill enforcing financial penalties if a company’s products harm kids.
Last year, Carl Szabo testified before the Maryland State Senate as a "concerned parent," conveniently omitting his job title: Vice President and General Counsel for Big Tech lobby group NetChoice. Accountability matters. x.com/accountabletec…
Still can't believe that Carl Szabo testified as a concerned parent before the Maryland State Senate without mentioning how he represents the Big Tech lobby group NetChoice.
This year, a registered Amazon lobbyist spoke at #NMKidsCode hearings, claiming ties to local groups but conveniently forgetting to mention his Amazon affiliation. Big Tech's covert influence is real. theguardian.com/technology/202…
This year, NetChoice lobbyist Amy Bos testified against #VTKidsCode, falsely citing Apple as a member and elevating Etsy’s name as a member ahead of TikTok and Meta to justify her opposition to popular common-sense legislation to protect kids online.
Big Tech giants have been stealthily lobbying against online safety bills, often misrepresenting their interests and failing to grasp the legislation they're even fighting. It's time for transparency and accountability.
TAKEAWAY: Big Tech's lobbying tactics show how little respect these companies have for legislators and the legislative process. But while these companies think they're above the law, legislators are pushing back!
Since 2007, the mental health of Aussie teens has worsened. Might smartphones & social media be to blame? I've made a short video to look at the evidence. #auspol @JonHaidt @jean_twenge @SocialDilemma_ @tristanharris @HumaneTech_ @LetGrowOrg

I'm back testifying in Vermont for the #VTKidsCode, now in the House. Follow along here at 1pm! youtube.com/@VTHouseCommEc…
Our co-chair @zamaan_qureshi testified today in support of the #VTKidsCode! Youth voices are often absent from policymaking, and we're grateful for Vermont's intentional inclusion of our voices in the legislative process!
To celebrate the launch of @JonHaidt's 'The Anxious Generation' today, we've unlocked a scene from our film 'Super Connected' based on the true story of a teenager with a phone-based childhood Watch here: youtu.be/DYaSRyrEK20 #AnxiousGeneration #SuperConnected
OUR BIGGEST FIGHT is a call to arms. It's a rallying cry for the people to take back what's rightfully theirs. It's time to rise up together and demand real change, before it's too late. Thank you to @tristanharris and @HumaneTech_ for your support!
CAN YOU HEAR US NOW?? 📣📣 We’re DONE allowing social media co’s to exploit our kids’ emotions for profit. If you’re near NYC THIS FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 10:30AM, join us in front of Meta HQ in Manhattan (770 Broadway). The time for change is now. #KidsBeforeTech #KeepKidsSafeOnlineNY
Here at #abundance360, Aza Raskin and Tristan Harris from @HumaneTech_ talk about chaos, dystopia and dysfunction associated with #AI. Where are our solutions in the race for engagement, so we avoid the pitfalls that happened with social media?
Exciting times ahead!

This week, we joined our friends at @DigitalDemoc to file comments at the FTC, offering a roadmap for stronger digital safeguards while also supporting many of the agency’s key proposals for updating its regulations within COPPA. bit.ly/3ThJ7Br 🧵Read our suggestions ⬇️
@DigitalDemoc ✨A huge thank you to the other organizations that signed on to our work with @DigitalDemoc: @AmerAcadPeds, @BMSG, @childrenscreens, @ConsumerFed, @HumaneTech_, @EDCoalition, @IssueOneReform, @ThePTC, and @uspirg.
Hey @tim_cook and @Apple, Apple is no longer in @NetChoice, but their lobbyists are invoking your company's name in their membership while opposing legislation to protect kids online? #VTKidsCode
Oh dear, watch this. As near every state AG, school district and lawmaker is scorching Facebook, Instagram for child harms, their heavily funded fronts NetChoice, CCIA, Chamber of Progress run their interference while hiding behind Apple, Amazon, and Google on this issue. /1
Big Tech’s rhetoric on #VTKidsCode isn’t scaring us, and it isn’t fooling our co-chair @zamaan_qureshi either. “This kind of tech reform is currently law in the United Kingdom, and last I checked, the internet is not broken.” 🔥
The #VTKidsCode passed the Senate Economic Matters Committee! 🎉 A critical step closer to a safer digital world designed with kids in mind!
