1. This is a very good sign that speaking out against KOSA is working! Dont assume it's dead though, continue calling your reps until further notice.
2. "Sammy's Law" is still in the draft stage but is worth keeping an eye on as imo i think trying to pass ANY kind of surveillance bill is bad

Word on the Hill is that House GOP leaders are moving on from the sweeping and controversial Kids Online Safety Act, or at least no longer prioritizing it.
That has opened the gates for narrower safety bills, such as "Sammy's Law," which I wrote about today: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Analysis | ‘Sammy’s Law’ would help parents monitor kids online. It’s gaining steam.

if you havent made any calls, or shipped any letters or sent any emails yet, and you feel like its "too late":
dont. its not too late. now is literally a perfect time to start joining in and contacting legislators and paypros in whatever way works best for you.

for those of you that have somehow made it this long without ever calling: you literally just have to list the bills. you don't have to give a reason. if you get a person, they won't ask you why. if you get a voicemail, just say your address at the beginning. it took me less than 5 minutes to call 3

piracy is a morally correct choice in a world where prices increase in inverse relativity to job prospects. you deserve access to culture no matter what side of the poverty line you're on. buy a used video game console and jailbreak it, learn to torrent, install soulseek. art is for everyone

Itch is not a "predatory corporation" seeking to erase queerness from the Internet. They are being monetarily threatened and blackmailed by some of the largest and most dangerous corporate entities on the planet. Criticizing Itch at this juncture makes you look deeply unserious and uninformed.

still rattled by the sheer giddy glee with which some queers are coming for itch.io, one of the largest collections of queer games in existence. i know it's scary to accept, but we do actually have good things worth defending. we have things it would damage us to lose

This itch.io NSFW policy change is unfortunately nothing new, the problem isn't the platforms themselves but rather Visa/MC strong-arming these services into revising their NSFW policies.
So if you're eligible I invite you to sign this ACLU petition: action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy.
Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.
