From my opening post:

Back in 2020, a bipartisan group of senators wrote an awful piece of legislation called EARN IT. The EARN IT Act would create a committee of law enforcement experts who would make rules about tackling child abuse material. Companies who fail to follow these recommendations would lose all protections under Section 230. It also empowers states to pass their own laws about policing content online. Although the senators involved deny it, the goal of this legislation is to give the government vast powers over what can and cannot be put on the internet, and to make it possible (and required) to scan everything online with automated tools for law enforcement, all under the guise of "protecting children".

Let me know if you actually had a different question and I just misunderstood.
