EFF isn't a research shop, but we can read the data. The reality is far more nuanced than those proposing social media bans claim. The research used to justify these sweeping measures is far from settled—and we shouldn't legislate as if it is. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/05/science-not-settled-how-weak-evidence-fueling-national-push-ban-social-media-youth

"Drones are able to have a perspective that law enforcement officers would not typically be able to have when they are patrolling or based on the ground," EFF’s Beryl Lipton told The Nevada Independent. "That really opens the space in which they are able to surveil a person." https://thenevadaindependent.com/article/vegas-police-are-filling-the-sky-with-camera-equipped-drones-residents-have-little-input

“I’d suggest thinking deeply before granting any third-party tool access to your inbox,” EFF’s @Thorin told HuffPost. “Unless you’re going to read the company privacy policy, it’s hard to say what it might do with any information it collects.” https://www.huffpost.com/entry/unsubscribe-gmail-hack_l_69f39ab9e4b0510ddb7bd931

Article 226-A of Brazil’s Bill 3066/2025 distorts the logic of the penal system. Treating VPNs like firearms doesn’t protect children, but rather signals that legitimate privacy and security tools are suspicious by definition. Policymakers should reject this bad idea. https://www.poder360.com.br/opiniao/protecao-infantil-erra-ao-penalizar-ferramentas-de-seguranca-digital/

Congress is moving quickly on the revised GUARD Act. The bill still requires intrusive age-verification and has massive penalties under vague standards. Tell Congress to oppose it: https://act.eff.org/action/tell-congress-oppose-the-guard-act
