Look, I know this is a scary situation we’re in right now, but please don’t let up!

Call your Senators and reps to oppose KOSA and the other 18 child “safety” bills, call the E&C committee and tell them how dissatisfied you were, and tell your family and friends about this! #SaveSpeech
Some key takeaways from today’s hearing:

-Many acknowledged that Senate KOSA is a threat to free expression.

-Bills discussed have similar issues to KOSA, esp online ID checks.

-The bad idea that surveillance + censorship will keep kids safe online drove the discussion.

KEEP AT EM! ✊
NEW: We hosted a live-stream of today's House Energy & Commerce committee hearing to provide commentary + analysis as Congress considers bills that would mandate online ID checks across the internet and censor very important resources for young people.

45% of all AI answers had at least one significant issue.
31% of responses showed serious sourcing problems – missing, misleading, or incorrect attributions.
20% contained major accuracy issues, including hallucinated details and outdated information.

Everyone who does computer things knows KOSA would be a disaster and yet they keep trying

Y'all, we can't let this happen
NOW: Congress is holding a hearing on 19(!) kids safety bills and several would age-gate/censor the internet, particularly for LGBTQ youth.

Remember that huge Discord data breach in Europe earlier this year, when so many folks had their identities stolen because of easy access to their IDs?

That is one BIG reason to NOT support online ID verification.
You shouldn’t have to present your ID, credit card info, or face to be scanned just to access your favorite sites, news, or games yet this is the growing reality for Internet users globally. We need a firestorm to take down online ID checks for good-- so we planned one. Join us for a week of action!

KOSA, SCREEN and a lot of US bills are going through a hearing today. Calling the committee and *in your own words* explaining why these impact you negatively would do good.

The absolute kicker to all of this is that most of the solutions they are seeking already exist on your phone. They just need to be enabled by parents.

But, no, they want to bring an East Wing demolition crew to everyone's internet because no one can be bothered going to "settings."

If they think our concerns over free speech is a "farce", that'd make the people pushing these bills un-American, don't you think? #stopageverification #stoponlineidchecks

I think when you're calling your representatives and/or the Committee majority number, you should be demanding that these bills go through more meetings

they need maximum scrutiny and should not be pushed through as fast as possible
wants this to be the last meeting on this matter before they turn bills into laws.
