Sounds like ones demands have changed, or atleast they got a hold of themselves. whatever lead to them walking back on this, it’s the end of another battle for internet privacy, but not the end of the war. As apps continue to track you in new mysterious ways behind their closed sourced software, and the governments continue to crack down on encryption. Anonymous names are important for privacy too.
I thought this was extra rich coming from the woman who won’t even use her real first name (Nimarata) because she fears backlash among her racist, shitbag supporters.
Oh that’s hilarious. I didn’t think about that.
Just like Rafael, I mean Ted Cruz. Who’s actually Canadian. Can you take him back Canada? Please?

“Wait, you want me to reveal my real identity, even on my alt accounts? As a Black man, I can’t tolerate that” -white GOPers on social media

whatever lead to them walking back on this
I feel pretty confident that the reason is that most anonymous bigots online are Cons, never mind the troll farms they employ to help keep themselves in power…
(E: to be clear, fuck these privacy destroying laws, just pointing out why there would be backlash specifically from the GOP)
Oh look, a republican being spineless. Must be a day ending in Y.
She’s really terrible at this. She got away with it when she ran for Governor in SC, because they don’t get as much coverage.
