Irish Legal New: A landmark EU court ruling on legal gender recognition “double underlines” the incompatibility of a controversial UK Supreme Court ruling with EU law, meaning it cannot be implemented in Northern Ireland, Irish Legal News has been told ...

"Paragraph 54 is also a rebuke to the UK Supreme Court in FWS – when the Equality Act 2010 was laid down, the UK was part of the EU and UK protections against discrimination had to work in line with EU law, a factor in statutory interpretation that the UKSC skips over in FWS.”

Kansas revoked 1,700 transgender drivers' licenses. Some are leaving the state.

The state's move to retroactively cancel licenses and birth certificates is part of a nationwide escalation of restrictions on the legal recognition of transgender people.

🤖 Automated systems meant to spot inconsistencies in identity documents may pose challenges for transgender individuals whose appearances don’t align with outdated gender markers on their ID.

These systems have already shown bias against people of color and gender-diverse individuals. This could create additional hurdles for marginalized communities that often find refuge in online environments. 🏳️‍⚧️

🌐 With the introduction of #ageverification laws in many U.S. states, these systems use automated scanning to verify the authenticity and legitimacy of your ID.

🏳️‍⚧️ Transgender and gender diverse people from Kansas will effectively have to out themselves to every platform that requires age verification. This is sensitive information that many #trans people guard closely, as being outed publicly can put them at risk of violence and harassment. ‼️

‘Age Verification’ could force trans people to out themselves to use the internet

Automated online ID checking systems add new potential dangers to having a mismatching ID.

Bulgaria’s ban on transgender people changing the sex on their birth certificates breaks European law, EU judges have ruled in a landmark case.

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) said a 2023 ban by Bulgaria’s Supreme Court fell foul of EU freedom of movement rules, which superseded national law

🥳 one small victory
