We are a group of artists, engineers, activists, and technologists who have been behind the largest online protests in human history, channeling Internet outrage into political power to win public interest victories previously thought to be impossible. We fight for a future where technology is a force for liberation— not oppression. https://links.fightforthefuture.org/

 Many folks on our team have creative practices and it’s such a gift that Fight has such a supportive environment that many staff interweave those endeavors in with our day to day work. It makes our output—from campaigns to design to social media content—stronger and more personal. In 2023, our very own Hally Leigh Comics created a “Resist Surveillance Squirrel” design with the team, and since then we’ve added 4 more critter designs to the series. (In addition to creative-types, we also happen to identify with ungovernable animals.) These designs are available together in a sticker pack for the first time, including the newest design “Turn Off Ring Raccoons.” The sticker pack is free with your $25 donation and comes with 5 high-quality stickers to make your laptop, phone case, or water bottle a bit spicier. Plus, you’ll be contributing to the very worthy work Fight does to hold Big Tech and politicians accountable and support the communities who need it most.
The official pretext for ID check laws is the so-called “pornography epidemic,” a moral panic that right-wing reactionaries blame for everything from falling birth rates to youth depression. But age-gating laws are about much more than restricting porn- Republican lawmakers are using the infrastructural power of the Internet to build a surveillance & censorship machine.

We desperately need lawmakers to see ID check bills for what they really are: a right-wing information power grab, writes Anna Bonesteel.
You shouldn’t have to present your ID, credit card info, or face to be scanned just to access your favorite sites, news, or games yet this is the growing reality for Internet users globally. We need a firestorm to take down online ID checks for good-- so we planned one. Join us for a week of action!
