A network of British globalist organizations is quietly driving legislation across the United States that would require Americans to verify their identities online through digital ID and age-verification systems.
The coordinated campaign has already reached 21 states and Congress, according to an investigation by Effort, with many of the same groups that helped deliver the United Kingdom’s sweeping anti-free speech Online Safety Act now working to replicate similar laws in America.
At the center of the effort is the UK-based 5Rights Foundation, whose leaders openly boast that U.S. legislation is modeled on Britain’s Age Appropriate Design Code (AADC).
“The Bill is practicable and realistic, drawing as it does on the UK’s Age Appropriate Design Code (AADC),” the organization declared alongside two authors of California’s Age Appropriate Design Code.
The investigation identifies five organizations involved in promoting digital identity and age-verification laws across the U.S.
Four are British organizations.
The fifth, Reset Tech, operates as an international coalition with a UK branch.
British Influence Campaign Targets U.S. States
The campaign extends far beyond offering policy advice.
One of the organizations pushing the legislation represents companies that profit directly from mandatory age-verification requirements.
The Age Verification Providers Association is a British trade association whose members sell age-verification and age-estimation technology.
The group backed Britain’s Online Safety Act and has argued that internet users accessing websites through virtual private networks (VPNs) should undergo additional age verification.
In effect, the very tool many people use to protect their online privacy would become justification for demanding even more identification.
The obvious question is whether lawmakers voting on these bills realize one of the chief advocates stands to financially benefit every time another verification mandate becomes law.
California Became the Blueprint
The 5Rights Foundation, chaired by Baroness Beeban Kidron, played a central role in California’s Age Appropriate Design Code, which became law in 2022.
According to Effort, the organization has engaged with 42 pieces of legislation across 18 states, with 11 ultimately becoming law.
Federal records show 5Rights is registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
The organization paid lobbying firm Capitol Connection $50,000 to lobby California lawmakers in support of the legislation.
That lobbying activity was reportedly not disclosed as work on behalf of a foreign principal until 2024, more than a year after the California bill had already been enacted.
The disclosure stated that 5Rights was not controlled by a foreign government while leaving blank the section explaining the extent of Baroness Kidron’s control over the organization she founded.
Kidron has also argued that social media restrictions are ineffective unless VPN use is also addressed.
“Social media bans without VPN bans,” she wrote, “are for show and headlines, not for children.”
The Same Organizations Appear Across Multiple Campaigns
Other organizations identified in the investigation have also played prominent roles in Britain’s online speech laws.
The Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) openly acknowledged helping shape the UK’s Online Safety Act.
Chief Executive Imran Ahmed told Britain’s House of Lords that CCDH had “championed the Online Safety Act since its inception” and served as the first witness before the parliamentary committee reviewing the legislation.
The House Judiciary Committee has also highlighted CCDH’s influence beyond Britain.
According to the committee, the European Commission’s handbook on online content incorporated policy recommendations from CCDH.
Another organization, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), has received U.S. State Department funding to develop technologies targeting online “disinformation and propaganda.”
ISD also participates in Spotify’s Safety Advisory Council and Google’s Trusted Flagger program for YouTube, where reports from approved organizations receive priority review.
Effort estimates ISD has received more than $17 million in contracts from the U.S. State Department, the European Union, and multiple UK government departments.
Congress has since begun examining those relationships.
The House Judiciary Committee reported that it obtained documents from both Access Now and the Institute for Strategic Dialogue in July 2025 while investigating how European regulators work with outside organizations to police online speech.
Lobbying Campaign Expands Across America
Reset Tech has also emerged as a major player in the effort.
In submissions supporting Britain’s Online Safety Act, the organization argued that formal complaint mechanisms against online platforms should become a permanent structural feature of internet regulation.
Its American affiliate, Reset Tech Action, spent more than $1.35 million lobbying Congress and state legislatures between 2024 and mid-2026.
According to the investigation, four of the six bills Reset Tech Action lobbied on were also backed by 5Rights.
Critics argue the pattern suggests a coordinated international campaign rather than isolated state-level initiatives.
Digital ID Push Raises New Questions
The House Judiciary Committee has previously warned that Britain’s Online Safety Act represents one of the most significant foreign attempts to expand government oversight of online speech.
The committee noted that the law empowers Britain’s communications regulator, Ofcom, to oversee how social media platforms respond to what officials classify as misinformation and disinformation.
Now, similar legislative proposals are advancing across America.
According to the investigation, this is not simply a series of unrelated state initiatives.
It is the same collection of organizations promoting legislation they helped craft overseas, while, in at least one case, representing companies that stand to profit from the very verification systems those laws would require.
