To be clear, the Senate version of KOSA passed today is completely different than the House version that passed earlier this year, making it very unlikely to become law. The Senate knows this yet they are committing to the farce of acting on kids safety.

The image features a vibrant red background with a quotation prominently displayed in white and bold black text. The quote is attributed to Sarah Philips, the Campaign Director for "Fight for the Future." The text discusses the inadequacies of Congress in regulating Big Tech companies and emphasizes the need for meaningful action rather than superficial proposals. Below the quote, there is a rounded photograph of Sarah Philips, who has long, dark hair and is smiling, wearing a black shirt. The design includes playful elements such as a heart icon and a stylized signature underneath the photograph, adding an engaging and impactful look to the overall message about political accountability.

THREAD: Here's what happened in today's "We are exploiting peoples' legitimate fears around kids online safety to advance dangerous censorship and surveillance legislation" hearing in the Senate Commerce Committee... 🧵

Polypancake@polypancake.bsky.social · yesterday

We all agree children need to be protected from exposure to obscenity and predators. The problem comes in the definition of what "obscenity" and a "predator" is. They think it's anyone pro-LGBTQIA+. They want to "protect" children from exposure TO US. They want to classify our lives as "obscene".

‼️ACTION ALERT: The Senate Commerce Committee is holding “kids safety” circus again, this time considering both KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) & SCREEN Act, two of the most dangerous censorship & age verification bills on the table! CALL YOUR LAWMAKERS & TELL THEM TO OPPOSE 📲 248-331-8665

The image is a graphic poster with a vibrant red background and contrasting dark purple text. At the top, it contains the message: “Senate Commerce Committee is taking up KOSA + SCREEN Act THIS WEDNESDAY” in bold white letters. Below this, in a larger, informal handwriting-style font is the phrase “TAKE ACTION” in yellow. At the bottom of the image is a phone number, “248-331-8665,” displayed inside a rounded rectangle in dark purple. The overall layout is eye-catching and designed to attract attention to the call for action regarding legislation.

S.1748 will endanger vulnerable communities, allow censorship, and establish a de-factor age-verification system. It's obvious age verification is really more about online-ID and tying every interaction to a specific user. #KOSA #BadInternetBills #KIDSAct #Censorship #AgeVerification #OnlineID

Australia’s eSafety commissioner buried a report (released Friday afternoon) that shows the under 16 social media ban didn’t tangibly reduce teen social media use, and also resulted in parents tuning out of kids usage. We traded our privacy for no reason. theconversation.com/more-than-80...

More than 80% of kids still using social media despite ban, new eSafety report finds

The report provides more evidence Australia’s world-leading social media ban isn’t going to plan.

New: We found 50 cops who misused Flock cameras and other license-plate readers for personal purposes, often to spy on their girlfriends or ex-wives. He "watched every single move I made. ... Who do you turn the chief of police in to?" wapo.st/3S6rTuo

She left her ex. He secretly tracked her through a network of policing cameras.

Flock’s array of license-plate cameras was built to fight crime. But at least 50 law enforcement officers were charged with or accused of misusing it and other systems.

Call your senators even if you think you have one that will not listen. Sacrificing everyone’s privacy is an incredibly high cost. Australia had a similar law that is already showing that it doesn’t protect kids. The idea that this protects kids is a Trojan horse for surveillance on the internet
