Petiția este adresată către: 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.

motive

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.

Vă mulțumim pentru sprijin, Maximilian Marek, Erkelenz

De ce semnează oamenii

Voor het stoppen van volledige controle door de staat en privacy terug belangerijk te maken

for freedom

I do not want to have to send out my ID just to access the internet. I already made the mistake of sending my ID to access a feature once, and i do not want to make that mistake again.

I do not welcome mass surveillance to Europe after all the warning examples we have seen elsewhere.

Chci upozornit na to, že pokud se opravdu mluví o „ochraně dětí“, tak by se to mělo řešit logicky. Dnešní děti mají chytré telefony, které za ně dělají skoro všechno — počítají, kontrolují pravopis, hledají za ně odpovědi. Je jasné, že když se dítě spoléhá jen na mobil, tak se nebude učit vlastním mozkem. Telefon bude přemýšlet víc než ono.

Kdyby šlo skutečně o ochranu a o to, aby děti byly chytré a schopné, mělo by to vypadat úplně jinak: děti by měly dostat maximálně tlačítkový telefon, který slouží jen na volání a SMS. Ve školách by se mělo učit normálně — psaním, počítáním, přemýšlením, logikou a skutečným učením, ne kopírováním výsledků z internetu.

Chytrý telefon by měl být až pro dospělého člověka, který za sebe umí nést odpovědnost. Dnes se ale dělá pravý opak: děti mají nejvýkonnější mobily, zatímco dospělým se omezuje obsah „kvůli nim“. To nedává vůbec žádný smysl.

Ochrana dětí má být o tom, aby se správně rozvíjely, ne o tom, aby kvůli nim měli dospělí omezený přístup k informacím.
