Legislators are considering attaching KOSA (the anti-LGBTQ+ censorship bill, aka the Kids Online Safety Act) to must-pass legislation authorizing the FAA. As EFF points out, the latest version of KOSA is still a censorship bill.
So if you’re in the US, it’s once again a good time to contact your Congresspeople. EFF’s got an action here that makes it makes it easy, and so does https://www.stopkosa.com/
That’s because if they had an actual good reason for doing something they would just say it. If they’re using the nebulous “protecting children” they’re just trying to invoke a boogeyman and shield themselves from criticism because nobody wants to go on record as being in favor of endangering children which is the implied stance if you oppose “protecting children”.
I’m putting forward the ‘Stop Putting Puppies in Blenders’ bill, which states that everyone needs to give me their PlayStations.
From atop your mountain of Playstations, will you finally stop putting puppies in blenders?!
