Stop KOSA
KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!
www.stopkosa.com
Happy spooky month and reminder to people to call your democratic senators and republicans and house democratics and republicans to oppose kosa and make sure the bill doesn't pass

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

If you haven’t already done so, now’s the time to call your reps and tell them to OPPOSE all of these bills! None of them are designed to protect children - not the App Store Accountability Act, not Sammy’s Law, not the SCREEN Act, and definitely not the amended KOSA!

I did a deep dive into the White House's draft executive order that would have counteracted states' abilities to write and enforce their own AI laws.
Boy, does it give David Sacks a lot of influence over setting federal AI regulatory policy!

still don't understand why the hell SEGA is delisting stuff, they delisted a ton last December and now they're doing it again
I'd argue this is worse than Nintendo's behavior, SEGA *had* their stuff available and they're walking it back, at least with Nintendo you know what you're getting (nothing)

Yeah instead of fretting, get into action and use also the 5calls app. The more of you who participate the more likely it is to fail. Also we already have real world experience with the UK's version of KOSA that was already defeated.
Lastly, you can go to websites made made by
@fightforthefuture.org to learn about KOSA and other shitty internet regulating bills. If we want our digital freedoms as artists and writers to see the next decade, we mustn't stop until these bills are dead.

the "GAMING" Act is probably also not very threatening on its own, but it raises a lot of questions re: implementation, and it would likely rely heavily on Age Verification legislation even if it doesnt address AV itself

-leaves children MORE vulnerable to having their data and privacy violated
-isolates LGBTQ children

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