The US’s latest attempt to chill speech online, KOSA-a bill to effectively force everyone to identify themselves to online platforms-is picking up steam and looking like it will pass the Senate.

So pissed at my democrats, and I’ve emailed and called them all. This is a stupid bill as written that will harm free speech and minorities. I’ve said it before, there are ways to verify that someone is over 18 without them needing to fully identify themselves on the internet. I always get downvoted to hell, but here it is folks. No one implemented any good way of age verifying someone so instead they’re ramming through a bill to get us to all upload our IDs to verify how old we are for the sake of the children.
