>KOSA would require online platforms — including social media, video games, messaging apps and streaming services – to exercise “reasonable care” when designing features that could lead to more addictive or harmful online behaviors for minors. It would provide parents with digital tools to control and monitor their children’s accounts, prohibit market or product research on children under the age of 13 and empower the Federal Trade Commission to investigate, fine and enforce the law.>The SCREEN Act, introduced last year by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, would require social media companies to implement age verification technology.>The Youth AI Privacy Act, from Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., would require new safety features for AI chatbots.>The Chatbot Act, by Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Brian Schatz, D-HawaiI, John Curtis, R-Utah and Adam Schiff, D-Calif. would require AI companies to implement “family accounts” for AI chatbots that give parents the ability to monitor and restrict their children’s interactions.>The Children’s Artificial Intelligence Toy Safety Act, by Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., would create a federal study around toys sold to children that include artificial intelligence or chatbot components.https://cyberscoop.com/senate-kids-online-safety-act-ai-bills-markup/
EFF says these bills should be rejected because of privacy and censorship risks.>KOSA Pushes Platforms Toward Age Verification>The Senate version of KOSA imposes a “duty of care” on online services, including social media, to avoid exposing young people to certain material the law deems harmful. But those obligations only work if online services know which users are minors. That means more platforms will be pressured to implement age verification or age estimation systems.>That’s not a bill that increases privacy—it’s one that creates new privacy problems. Whether companies verify ages by checking government IDs, performing facial analysis, checking your bank records, or collecting other personal information, all of these systems require the handing over of more sensitive data, simply to access lawful online speech and services. They also create new databases of personal information that can be breached, misused, or demanded by governments.>KOSA Still Creates Incentives to Censor Lawful Speech>Some online content isn’t appropriate for minors. Families, schools, and communities all have important roles to play in helping children navigate the internet. But KOSA takes those decisions away from families and the young people who have a First Amendment right to speak and access information online. It instead empowers government officials to enforce how online services handle lawful speech. >And by empowering elected attorneys general in states across the country to enforce KOSA, the bill means those elected officials, rather than your family, deciding what’s appropriate online content for teens. Even more likely, it will lead to limits on what minors and adults are able to see at all, as companies shut down potentially controversial forums in order to avoid legal action from government bureaucrats. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/08/senate-should-reject-kosas-privacy-risks
>>540189121>It would provide parents with digital tools to control and monitor their children’s accounts,Freedom of association is a first amendment right. You can't stop parents from controlling their kids, but the government can't do that for them. There's no age limit on the 1A
>>540189121>>540189162kek what a bunch of retards
Also, just adding a fuck you to any congressman pushing this shit. You had this freedom your entire lives, now you try to take it away from the only demographic that can't vote against you.
>>540189121What useless parasites
>>540189121Why do we all have to suffer to compensate for trash parents?
>>540189121>all this because some fags wanted to roleplay with chatbots instead of using the anti-normie text adventure interfaceOnline roleplayers are turbocancer
>>540189162>its not censorship when you speak hate. hate crimes are a real thing that is what makes this so necessaryoh btw too diaperfags should hang. and oh yea age of consent laws are "soo" much more important than birth rates.reasons why they are shit:>18 year old guy is jailed as pedo for dating 16 year old>16 year old girls posts nudes and is charged with having cp, no victim no crime?no, THATS not shrinking birth rates. we must concern ourselves MORE with arbitrary age of consent numbers...
From the screen bill>(iii) taken as a whole, lacks serious, literary, artistic, political, or scientific value as to minors;But we will never ever save our men from penis being carved off by psychos
bump, because important.
The senate has gone totally WOKE. BASED Trump will shut it down.
>>540189121>Zuckerberg mad that AI bots fuck with his data gathering>Lobby lawmakers into make online ID's mandatory so he knows who is an actual human being and sell their data
>>540194740making*
>>540189121>Think of the children!!Jewish pilpul
Epstein rape freedom bill, call it what it is. Fox News will run cover and tell the boomers it’s for saving children from democrats and commies. But it’s really for neocons to find more underage victims
>>540189121I think that's what they call "Chutzpah".
>>540194740Pretty much this, along with the government having increased spying capabilities out in the open and ability to find people who uncover their crimes or do wrong think about jews. No one gives a shit about your children except you and your loved ones, and that's not even guaranteed, so start giving a shit about your children and don't leave it up to the fucking government of all people, they apparently don't really mind killing children.
>kids safetyThey want to spy on you but they'll never release Epstein files or prosecute the pedophile cannibals in government
>>540197053Some kids are just more equal than other kids, anon.
Already done this before, got tossed in Reno v. ACLU. Yawn.
>>540199505But they're not trying to regulate the speech, anon, just require you to ID yourself before your can engage in the unregulated speech. It's totally different :^)
