looking at the bills and talking to folks, these are the most actively threatening among this batch that will be present during Dec 2's hearing
House KOSA's audit policy is the one aspect im a little shaky on and havent found any more authoritative writing on, but felt should still be mentioned

![KOSA [house version]
-omits duty of care, but there is no guarantee this stays gone
-no exemption for nonprofit entities
-yearly audits of platforms. could possibly include even really small ones, ex: mastodon instances, discord servers?
Reducing Exploitative Social Media Exposure for Teens (RESET) Act [DRAFT BILL]
-prohibits kids/teens under 16 from maintaining socmed accounts
Sammy's LAW [H.R 2657]

-leaves children MORE vulnerable to having their data and privacy violated
-isolates LGBTQ children
App Store Accountability Act [H.R.3149]
-requires Age Verification at the app store level
-transmitting Age Signals to developers.
SCREEN ACT [H.R.1623]

-backed by far right politicians and anti-porn groups
Safer Guarding of Adolescents from Malicious Interactions on Network Games (GAMING) Act [HR. 6265]

"an absolute no-no" okay I thought I was using hyperbole in discussing how people talk about this stuff but fuck me. Every time an intentionally disturbing creative decision raises controversy, it's like "wuh oh. :/ I guess they didn't realize how this looks to Normal People. Whoopsie-doodle."
i know you’re not supposed to read the conversation in the comments but the conversation is depressing and anti-art in all the typical ways to justify censorship… like there’s so much to unpack here especially with how quickly people paint art as “abuse” when it discusses difficult topics.

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

Morning thoughts about "AI".
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
![Thoughts about “AI”
Yes it’s:
The slop
The theft
The brainrot
The loss of work
The crumbling of creator rights
The destroying of the environment and infrastructure
But it's also the destroying of trust in anything that you’re not seeing with your own eyes right in front of you.
Wonder now turned to the narrowing of eyes in immediate scepticism seeing something magical.
Questioning the realness of everything from a stilted written apology to profound works by students in school.
It feels like a slow poison to creativity and humanity at large.

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season
