And nod along when we gesture at the dangers of surveillance overreach.&#xA;&#xA;But I worry that the common language for talking about these initiatives typically relies on some priors that are not universally shared outside people that live and breathe concerns about tech.&#xA;&#xA;Saying that something is a surveillance dystopia works on me. But not the neighbors.&#xA;&#xA;I&#39;m guilty of being inside this language bubble too, and it&#39;s hard to escape.&#xA;&#xA;Yet, when faced with politicians talking about protecting kids from bad things that parents feel they see right now... I worry that the communities doing pushback are struggling to:&#xA;&#xA;1 -find framing that makes *enough sense* to the vast majority of people that they say &#39;ok this is net bad&#39; and push back&#xA;2- find their own ways to productively connect with the anxieties that politicians are drawing on. E.g. worried parents.&#xA;3- offer things that are honest, well meaning alternative paths for the underlying problems&#xA;&#xA;Anyone have thoughts on this? #AskNostr</html></oembed>
