@bolderbekah the definition of what constitutes "critical infrastructure" in this case is so loose and undefined, videogame consoles might actually end up classified this way.

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@threatresearch/116387050505018174

Current update on SB26-090 (Colorado's misguided "wrong to repair" bill):

After spending a bunch of the senate session on Tuesday in debate over a bunch of amendments, the bill is tentatively on the calendar for tomorrow, again, to have its third reading in the senate.

Please keep up the pressure - Coloradans and the rest of the country rely on being able to fix broken things in order to protect them from cyberattack. The repair is not the problem here.

@woody I have repeatedly made the point that there should not merely be the "right to repair" critical infrastructure, but we need a "duty to repair" it.

🚨 Current update on the Colorado bill (SB26-090) that would rescind "right to repair" for "critical infrastructure" 🚨

Please share widely.

The bill is currently scheduled for "third reading (final passage)" in the Colorado senate for Monday, April 13, first thing in the morning. If you have delayed until now doing something, this is your moment to act. You do not need to be a Colorado, or even a US resident, to speak up!

https://leg.colorado.gov/agenda/floor/202604132

Paul Roberts (secure-resilient.org) is putting together a list of people willing to be signatories to a letter opposing this bill. Please reach out to him if you want to sign on to that letter.

Wayne Seltzer, who runs the Boulder U-fix-it Clinic, shared a link to this petition/letter to legislators: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/support-your-right-to-repair-in-colorado

Danny Katz of CO PIRG is running a petition drive to send messages to the legislature. Petition link: https://pirg.org/colorado/take-action/tell-your-senator-protect-colorados-right-to-repair-law/

Finally, and this is important, rep. Brianna Titone (the author of the original 2024 right to repair bill) informed me that some of the advocates for right to repair who have been writing to legislators have been threatening or offensive in their language they used in their messages. This is unhelpful and will not persuade lawmakers to change their minds, so please try to encourage others to remember that these legislators -- who are on the fence -- can be persuaded, and are not (necessarily) inherently evil or corrupt, and just lack understanding.Talk/write to them with that frame of mind.

Thank you!

I have an all-hands-on-deck call to action today.

At what point do we stop owning the things we buy, and just rent everything?

That's the #enshittification problem that the #RightToRepair movement is trying to address.

In Colorado, where we finally (just 3 months ago!) saw the nascent first awakening of a new right to repair law come in to effect, that infant could end up smothered in its crib this week, as the Colorado senate considers a bill that would roll back the right to repair for any device considered "critical infrastructure" - and yes, it is that vague in its wording.

https://www.404media.co/data-center-tech-lobbyists-fearmonger-in-attempt-to-retroactively-roll-back-right-to-repair-law/

If you care about whether we get to control and use (to whatever purpose we see fit) the things we buy -- including commercial servers, firewalls, routers, or other electronic gear -- then please consider signing on to this petition urging the Colorado legislature to reject the fearmongering and bad-faith arguments of the tech industry, who are making a desperate attempt to protect the long term revenue stream of support contracts.

Don't get angry; Get active. We can win this one with reasoned arguments. Please ask the Colorado legislature to not give in to FUD, and embrace Coloradans' resiliency and willingness to fight the good fight.

Sign the petition here:

https://pirg.org/colorado/take-action/tell-your-senator-protect-colorados-right-to-repair-law/

I just realized there's a section that I couldn't squeeze in because my server only allows 4 images max.

This clause appears in the plank, below the ones shown earlier.

"Hold social media companies accountable for the addictive nature of their platforms. Likewise, hold the people who use social media to inflict harm on others accountable for those actions."

It doesn't exactly address the age attestation bill, but it seeks to point the blame at the source of the problem, rather than forcing the whole world to adopt a flawed solution.

You mean https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/SB26-051

The party doesn't have that in the platform, but I have been arguing against it and testified in committee with about 15 other people opposed to SB26-051 when the committee passed it unanimously anyway, about 3 weeks ago.

There's big social media money behind the campaign, from what I understand, and the language is identical to bills introduced in several other states.

@ranggie4 Anti-enshittification is a valid campaign plank, as is anti-corruption. The Venn diagram of things covered in those two categories is about an 80% match

@danirabbit Until reading this post, I had never heard of this project. $20 seems like a very fair price for what you're making. Thank you for bringing @elementary to my attention.

Will it run on an older MacBook such as the model A1278? https://support.apple.com/en-us/111958

@paul_ipv6 If you're a Coloradan, I encourage you to stay connected with me and to try to get elected to the Platform Committee in the fall of 2027, when it will reconstitute at the next party re-org. Reach out if you have questions about how to do that.

It has been a busy winter so far for me, which is why I haven't been posting a lot here. But today I'm proud to share with you the fruits of some of that labor: The Colorado Democratic Party's platform for 2026. For those unfamiliar, a platform (in the US) is a statement of values that a political party stands for, generally agreed upon by people who stand for election as representatives of the party.

I was elected during last year's party re-org to the Platform Committee. The chair of the committee asked if I would run the subcommittees for two of the "planks" (sections) of the platform: the Democracy section, and the New Tech & AI section. It was an honor to work on both.

I'm going to share screenshots from the New Tech & AI plank because it's relevant to the work I do here, and I think a lot of people might be interested to see this statement of values. This plank is brand new, never before covered in prior Platform documents.

I'm also pleased to report that the whole of the Platform Committee and the roughly 1500 delegates to last weekend's statewide party Assembly voted to approve this as-is, with no additional changes, on a vote of 98.9% in favor.

There's a lot to like, but my favorite aspect of this is that I managed to get widespread approval for use of the term #enshittification in the official platform, both from the Platform committee and the larger party leadership. Thanks @pluralistic for the inspiration. (I believe this is the first time the term has been used in any official political party platform ever.)

The full platform is readable at https://www.coloradodems.org/platform
