• Pennsylvania Senate Committee Advances Online Age Verification Bill (news-usa.today) — A Pennsylvania Senate committee has advanced an online age-verification bill that would require ID checks to access many adult-content sites, while critics warn it could endanger privacy and anonymity. Montgomery's state senator, Maria Collett, opposed the measure in committee, arguing that weak data safeguards could expose lawful users to hacking, profiling, and extortion before any final floor vote is taken.
