Agreed. This law suite gives me the feeling that they know exactly what they are doing.

It is probably easier and faster to take this route that was the auther suggested.

If Louisiana wants platforms to implement stronger identity verification for child safety reasons, they should advocate for new legislation designed for that purpose (and see if they can make a law that actually survives Constitutional scrutiny), not twist existing privacy protections into their opposite.

It also does not prevent them from acually advocate for new legislations.
