A "Progressive Tech Coalition" (including Apple, Google, & Roblox) has abruptly changed stance on "Age Verification" laws. Up until now, the "Chamber of Progress" has consistently opposed all laws seeking to implement age verification... but they have decided to support the Colorado "Age Verification for all Operating Systems" law. What makes this 180 degree change particularly interesting is that "Chamber of Progress" publicly *opposed* last year's California law... which the Colorado law (which they *support*) is based almost entirely upon. Which begs the question: What, exactly, prompted such a radical change in policy from a lobbyist for these Big Tech companies? Chamber of Progress calls itself a "tech industry coalition devoted to a progressive society" which pushes "public policies that will build a fairer, more inclusive world". @ProgressChamber brings in just shy of $10 Million USD / Year for lobbying of "Progressive" causes on behalf of their member Big Tech companies.
