It could get struck down for violating First Amendment rights for adults like COPA did.
Theyve tried a half dozen of these SOPA think of the children bills since the 2000s. This is just the closest.This time Israels genocide is distracting everyone.
This time Israels genocide is distracting everyone.I mentioned before that I've seen people believe one of the purposes of this bill is to eliminate pro-Palestine speech online.
Thank goodness for them. I only hope they were able to convince enough people in Congress to reject KOSA.
Have they all publicly opposed it??They haven't said anything on it yet to my knowledge.
Could KOSA be struck down as unconstitutional for limiting the First Amendment rights of adults like COPA was: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashcroft_v._American_Civil_Liberties_Union ?
Wtf, man these fucking old people who barely even understand what the Internet is need to knock it off.
If there was any expectation for privacy (which you shouldn't have )

I'm just so numb to this shit at this point.
I don't support this, because it's dumb. I can see a point in wanting to curb foreign influencers before an election - but it's just a stupid way of going about it.
Want to regulate the Internet for the better _and_ curb propaganda? You need to do something about tracking and targeted ads.

There's no way to stop this. You can e-mail your representative a million times they aren't going to no vote a law called the Kids Online Safety Act, it would be political suicide.
Nah I usually am numb but this time its different. Wish I hadn't even looked into this.
There'll be a great exodus of websites out of the US, 99% of websites still in the US will be blocked by the EU for violating their privacy laws, VPN use in the US will increase by 1500%, and every small website that allows user-uploaded images in the US will have to close their site because they don't have resources to comply with the law.
So say goodbye to the small hobby sites and message boards for RC planes, DIY home renovation, amateur nature photography, homebrew Atari games, fan comics, etc.
What are the chances people go after Blumenthal and Blackburn for this?Has 4chan already made their move?
Hopefully this shuts down more right wing websites.Hell, if anything, they'll probably get an exemption, or maybe they'll just happily hand over their IDs.
The timing for the change does seem on the nose...damn.
What's the changes?No hornyposting.
No hornyposting.Seems too vague. Like what if you post a video game character like ivy from sound calibur? She dresses skimpier than a lot of the normal horny posting
I hand my ID to strangers all the timeRandom people are fairly safe. Leaks go out to the dangerous people.
What a coincidence the new GameFAQs posting restrictions and CE becoming private happen a few days after I make this topic...
They're preparing for the law to pass. Fandom is actively hoping to do it so they can put both ID verification and a subscription to even post or read Gamefaqs.If they wanted to do that, wouldn't they do it even if it doesn't pass?
If they wanted to do that, wouldn't they do it even if it doesn't pass?
Giving your ID to a site is just asking for your identity to be stolen in a data breach.Yeah, identity theft is going to shoot through the roof if this passes.
The people who want this also want to do away with voting.I did hear The Heritage Foundation, the guys behind Project 2025, support KOSA.

I did hear The Heritage Foundation, the guys behind Project 2025, support KOSA.Of course. It materially harms everyone they hate and want to murder.
When are they voting on this?Don't know. Senate was suppose to vote on it last month, but it was pushed back there.
If there was any expectation for privacy (which you shouldn't have), it surely will be lost with this. Just wait to the GOP proposes universal internet ID's to use the internetif the government will not hand me privacy, I will seize it for myself
the feds are really gonna pull a Fandom over on us ehDo we know if the House voted on it yet?
Do we know if the House voted on it yet?
https://clerk.house.gov/VotesThe fuck is this one
IDK how to feel about that many laws getting voted on in a single day.
