"We Are Trying To Protect The Children From Harmful Materials And Content "

"We are trying to protect the children from harmful materials and content 🥺"

You aren't.

You're putting the children and queers in danger.

You're harming them and killing them.

You cannot expect them to be "safe" when you are making their life miserable.

If you don't want kids consuming shit then why don't you suggest parents DOWNLOAD any parental controls app or monitor their devices properly. (Like you know. Not letting them consume those stupid shit) Or I don't know! Why don't you track any pedophiles and kill them?

Pedophiles don't deserve to breathe the same air that we have. They don't deserve to be alive after what they did to those poor souls, they don't deserve a damn "raise". You dumbasses are letting those disgusting pigs harm more kids and not doing your job properly. You filthy animals should be ASHAMED of yourself for not doing the job properly. ASHAME ON YOU.

you are an embarrassment to the human race. If you REALLY and I mean 100% WORRIED about their safety then FIX IT! ENCOURAGE THE PARENTS TO ADD MONITORS. IT'S NOT HARD TO ADVERTISE A FUCKING PARENTAL CONTROL OR BAN THOSE NSFW ACCOUNTS.

HOW HARD IS IT FOR Y'ALL TO REPORT OR BAN THOSE PEOPLE????? WHA--

KOSA update:

For anyone who hasn't seen (me included lol), the verge has put out an article about KOSA and how its not as clear if congress will pass it now as multiple other bills are competing against it and legislators are struggling to decide which to back.

https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/29/24086559/kids-online-safety-act-schatz-tech-groups

One of the proposed bills is this one

congress.gov

Text - S.223 - 117th Congress (2021-2022): Invest in Child Safety Act

Text for S.223 - 117th Congress (2021-2022): Invest in Child Safety Act

In short, instead of making a bunch of tech bros surrogate parents on the internet, instead it would invest a ton of money into actually going after and investigating actual child predators, modernize the cyber tipline, and do research on prevention/ detection programs, among a few other things.

So please, if you're American, you still have time to call up your reps and tell them you're against Kosa, which is good, but giving them suggestions like this bill is better

This isn’t the first time some5ung like this has happened

Do any of you remember Article 13 from back in 2018 or 2016? Yeah the KOSA bill is eerily similar to that, and vice versa

The US lawmakers are starting to try and crack down on the internet in general, I think it’s because their afraid, afraid of the power we hold, and thus act to try and silence us, to my knowledge, Article 13 was the first of these kind of bills to try and limit the internet, the KOSA bill is almost the same thing simplified and stretched to an extrene

Fuck KOSA. we have to stop it, kill KOSA alike we killed Article 13

What I sent to my electeds regarding KOSA

I beg of you, please understand what a weapon KOSA is. For anyone who wants to censor the internet, who wants to simply remove whole populations of people from the public sphere of discourse. Any single person, any group, that can be slandered with "but what if CHILDREN see what these people are saying and doing?????" can have their online life erased. Queer people. Folks talking about reproductive health. People who want to discuss divorce. Folks who want to talk about harm reduction in drug use. Trans people. People advocating for gun control.

Anything that could be framed as "Anti-family" or "harm to children" can be censored by any attorney general who gets a wild hair about a specific issue. You know that. I know you know that. And you seem hellbent on fellow-traveller-ing right along this paved road of good intention straight into censorship hell.

Stop. KOSA.

Vote against KOSA.

Please do not give this loaded weapon into the hands of people who want to erase knowledge, community, and access from the public sphere.

I do not want my life or the lives of my wife and kids to be erased from community. Please vote no on KOSA.

I'm so fucking scared about KOSA please people don't let this pass dont let these things be censored don't block us from our safe spaces please please please stop KOSA if I had links I would give them do everything you can it will save lives
