Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

I'm honestly worried if the Screen Act passes, and the US federal gov't required official identity verification to access the internet, I would be alone in unplugging. There's so much industry that would collapse if ppl unplugged. Infrastructure lost. But I am afraid that's not enough risk,
