And how does she intend to do this? Am I gonna have to fax my driver’s license to every website I create an account at?
Great question!
A National internet ID of course!
it might be called a Crypto-quantum-cyber-safety-passcode and you’ll need to use it in any site that collects and stores data about you. It will be for your safety!
Create laws for social media sites to validate identity or force them through something like login.gov with il2 verification. More and more federal services are starting to use them for managed identity.
I mean, the Democrats want to control social media as much as the Republicans do.
And they’ll have about as much success
They’ll keep trying until they win. It will be relatively easy for them to win on corporate social media. They largely have already have won, if you’ve continued to follow Matt Taibbi’s Twitter Files.
The final frontier will be the non-corporate fediverse: Atlantic Council: Collective Security in a Federated World
She will consult China for that. A Beacon of democracy!
If she was serious, she might recommend randomized checkpoints where police officers stop you, force you to unlock your phone, and then check for unapproved social media accounts in applications and browsers.
Otherwise, this sort of censorship would only apply to people without the technical knowledge or cash to use a VPN.
But hey, we love our small government Republicans, don’t we folks
It’s a tool to oppress dissent.
Realistically, you can’t enforce the law, but if you find an anonymous account for anything on someone’s phone or laptop, you can easily arrest or fine them.
It’s because if someone says a mean thing about them or their views online, they want to be able to identify them and direct stochastic terrorism towards them.
They want to go back to an America where even though a shit ton of white people hated the KKK, no one would say it publicly because then you were their biggest target as a “race traitor”.
Because that’s the only way to get people to stop pointing out how mind-blowingly stupid their ideas are.

Only if it’s a federally approved REAL ID license.
