“I've been pulling public records on the wave of "age verification" bills
moving through US state legislatures. IRS 990 filings, Senate lobbying
disclosures, state ethics databases, campaign finance records, corporate
registries, WHOIS lookups, Wayback Machine archives. What started as curiosity
about who was pushing these bills turned into documenting a coordinated
influence operation that, from a privacy standpoint, is building surveillance
infrastructure at the operating system level while the company behind it faces
zero new requirements for its own platforms.”
