Petition richtet sich an:
The European Parliament and the European Commission
The European Union is preparing legislation that would make ID verification mandatory for using websites, games, social media, and online services.
This means:
• You may need to upload your passport or government ID to access basic platforms.
• VPNs could be restricted, banned, or forced to register with authorities.
• Everyone, including adults, would be tracked and identified — even when just commenting online.
These laws are presented as “child protection” — but in truth, they open the door to mass surveillance, loss of anonymity, and exclusion of millions.
❌ Undocumented people
❌ LGBTQ+ teens without safe households
❌ Whistleblowers and activists
❌ Refugees, privacy advocates, and low-income families
⸻
✊ We Demand:
1. No mandatory ID or age verification to access general online platforms
2. No bans or restrictions on personal VPN use
3. Anonymity and privacy must remain fundamental digital rights
4. Safer online spaces should be built with education and platform responsibility, not surveillance
The internet must remain free, open, and private — not a permission-based ID system controlled by governments or corporations.
We call on the European Parliament and Commission to protect our digital freedom.

Begründung
The right to privacy is a cornerstone of democracy.
Yet the European Union is preparing laws that would force every citizen — adult or child — to upload government ID just to access everyday parts of the internet.
This petition is important because it’s not just about child protection. It’s about what kind of internet we want to live in.
Do we want an internet where:
• You need a passport to comment on a forum?
• VPNs are banned or controlled?
• Anonymity is treated as a crime?
Or do we want an internet that protects freedom of expression, especially for vulnerable groups like LGBTQ+ teens, refugees, whistleblowers, and journalists?
These laws won’t stop crime — but they will silence millions of innocent people.
This petition gives us — the citizens — a voice before it’s too late.
The internet must remain a place of freedom, privacy, and access for all.
Let’s stop this before it becomes irreversible.
