 No.12727

This is the bill for censoring, doing online child indoctrination and destroying privacy via invasive age-verification. If you live in the US go bug a politician about this or something.

Read this for a non-oversimplified version

The assaults of freedom of expression and privacy are relentless.

Maybe the legal strategies are wrong. Maybe the default assumption should be that privacy and free expression rights are violated unless technical-systems as well as organizations do something to uphold privacy and free expression. Free expression and privacy as a feature that has to be added.

Will this one pass like CISA eventually did: tucked inside a must-pass spending bill at the start of 2024?

It seems that
<The Senate may have a simple voice vote in the next week to move the KOSA quickly through the legislature, without debate, but any one senator can stop it with a hold.

So if you live in the US pester a senator about doing a "hold" thingy.

<tucked inside a must-pass spending bill

The thing with this type of "legislative smuggling" is that it's not democratically legitimized and hence much easier to undo. Once undone these become much harder to revive.
