Two bills will be up for a vote soon before the New York State Assembly requiring all content, including social media and messages, to be posted with an attached real name; otherwise website owners will be required to remove the comments/posts:
The online anonymous speech ban
I don't really need to tell you why this is a major threat to freedom of speech, to women, children, members of marginalized groups, etc, do I?
Apparently a similar bill is up for a vote soon in Arizona.
THIS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED.
