Do you remember the last time you were carded at a bar or restaurant? It was probably such a quick and normal experience, that you barely remember it. But have you ever been carded to use the internet? Being required to present your ID to access content online is becoming a growing reality for many. We're explaining the dangers of age verification laws, and the latest in the fight for privacy and free speech online, with our EFFector newsletter.

For over 35 years, EFFector has been your guide to understanding the intersection of technology, civil liberties, and the law. This issue covers Discord's controversial rollout of mandatory age verification, a leaked Meta memo on face-scanning smart glasses, and a Super Bowl surveillance ad that said the quiet part out loud.

Prefer to listen in? In our audio companion, EFF Associate Director of State Affairs Rin Alajaji explains how online age verification hurts free expression for all users. Find the conversation on YouTube or the Internet Archive.

Phishing and data breaches are a constant on the internet. The single best defense against both is to use a password manager to generate and automatically fill a unique password for every site. While 1Password has recently raised their prices, and researchers have recently published potential flaws in some implementations, using a password manager is still a critical investment in keeping yourself safe on the internet. There are free options, and even ones built into your operating system or browser. We can help you choose.

Password managers protect you from phishing by memorizing the connection between a password and a website, and, if you use the browser integration, filling each password only on the website it belongs to. They protect you from data breaches by making it feasible to use a long, random, unique password on each site. When bad actors get their hands on a data breach that includes email addresses and password data, they will typically try to crack those passwords, and then attempt to login on dozens of different websites with the email address/password combinations from the breach. If you use the same password everywhere, this can turn one site’s data breach into a personal disaster, as many of your accounts get compromised at once.

In recent years, the built-in password managers in browsers and operating systems have come a long way but still stumble on cross-platform support. Within the Apple ecosystem, you can use iCloud Keychain, with support for generating passwords, autofill in Safari, and end-to-end encrypted synchronization, so long as you don’t need access to your passwords in Google Chrome or Android (Windows is supported, though). Within the Google ecosystem, you can use Google Password Manager, which also supports password generation, autofill, and sync. Crucially, though, Google Password manager does not end-to-end encrypt credentials ​​unless you manually enable on-device encryption. Firefox and Microsoft also offer password managers. All of these platform-based options are free, and may already be on your devices. But they tend to lock you into a single-vendor world.

There are also a variety of third-party password managers, some paid, and some free, and some open source. Most of these have the advantage of letting you sync your passwords across a wide variety of devices, operating systems, and browsers. Here are four key things to look out for. First, when synchronizing between devices, your passwords should be encrypted end-to-end using a password that only you know (a “master” or “primary” password). Second, support for autofill can reduce the chance that you’ll get phished. Third, security audits performed by third parties can increase confidence that the software really does what it is designed to do. And finally, of course, random generation of unique passwords is a must.

Don’t let uncertainty or price increases dissuade you from using a password manager. There’s a good choice for everyone, and using one can make your online life a lot safer. Want more help choosing? Check out our Surveillance Self-Defense guide.

The Secretary of Defense has given an ultimatum to the artificial intelligence company Anthropic in an attempt to bully them into making their technology available to the U.S. military without any restrictions for their use. Anthropic should stick by their principles and refuse to allow their technology to be used in the two ways they have publicly stated they would not support: autonomous weapons systems and surveillance. The Department of Defense has reportedly threatened to label Anthropic a “supply chain risk,” in retribution for not lifting restrictions on how their technology is used. According to WIRED, that label would be, “a scarlet letter usually reserved for companies that do business with countries scrutinized by federal agencies, like China, which means the Pentagon would not do business with firms using Anthropic’s AI in their defense work.”

Anthropic should stick by their principles and refuse to allow their technology to be used in the two ways they have publicly stated they would not support: autonomous weapons systems and surveillance.

In 2025, reportedly Anthropic became the first AI company cleared for use in relation to classified operations and to handle classified information. This current controversy, however, began in January 2026 when, through a partnership with defense contractor Palantir, Anthropic came to suspect their AI had been used during the January 3 attack on Venezuela. In January 2026, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei wrote to reiterate that surveillance against US persons and autonomous weapons systems were two “bright red lines” not to be crossed, or at least topics that needed to be handled with “extreme care and scrutiny combined with guardrails to prevent abuses.” You can also read Anthropic’s self-proclaimed core views on AI safety here, as well as their LLM, Claude’s, constitution here. 

Now, the U.S. government is threatening to terminate the government’s contract with the company if it doesn’t switch gears and voluntarily jump right across those lines.  

Companies, especially technology companies, often fail to live up to their public statements and internal policies related to human rights and civil liberties for all sorts of reasons, including profit. Government pressure shouldn’t be one of those reasons. 

Whatever the U.S. government does to threaten Anthropic, the AI company should know that their corporate customers, the public, and the engineers who make their products are expecting them not to cave. They, and all other technology companies, would do best to refuse to become yet another tool of surveillance.
