A discussion of the problems with KOSA, the Kids Online Safety Act.
“The powers granted by KOSA would invite more unconstitutional mischief, especially in the hands of ideologically driven, politically ambitious attorneys general, who could decide to target “hate speech,” discussions of sexual orientation and gender identity, or other controversial content they view as harmful. Although that might not be the destination that KOSA’s supporters have in mind, the road they are paving with their good intentions includes dangerous detours with clearly marked signs.”
Hmmm. Isnt there a fine line between free speech though and trying to protect kids? It’s clear that kids need some protecting. Take a look around. Lots of predatory content out there and plenty of weirdos looking to capitalize. This bill might not be the best way to do this but it would be nice to filter some of the filth on the internet and keep it away from the wrong audience.
