The #Senate Should Reject KOSA's #Privacy Risks
The Senate Commerce Committee is once again considering legislation that would dramatically expand age verification, and undermine privacy for everyone. Alongside the #SCREENAct , the #CHATBOT Act, and the Youth #AI Privacy Act, the Kids Online Safety Act (#KOSA ) would push companies to collect more information about their users while creating new incentives to restrict lawful speech.

The SCREEN Act is a #ChristianNationalist Nightmare
On Wednesday morning, Ted Cruz’s Senate #CommerceCommittee will convene on five bills aimed at age verification and “child safety.” The bills each have their own issues when it comes to #privacy , data collection, parental rights, and free speech. But one bill, the partisan #Republican SCREEN Act, is a Christian nationalist nightmare.

#SCREENAct is a #ChristianNationalist Nightmare
#MikeLee's Act would expand #ageverification to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by architects of #Project2025.
SCREEN would place burden and risk of verifying ages to every website that falls under the law, which would be most sites with user-generated content and also mainstream platforms like Netflix.
Critics say the SCREEN Act would be a #privacy and #freespeech disaster.

Remember how Speaker #MikeJohnson talked about how he and his son use #CovenantEyes mutual #surveillance to check whether each other have been viewing porn? (Remember how Josh Duggar used the same software?)
The SCREEN Act is an attempt by #MikeLee to impose a similar degree of religious #voyeurism and #censorship throughout the #USA and everywhere using #US based Internet services. It would require every site that allows any form of user-generated content to collect ID from every user, and would criminalize any publication of facts (as opposed to Mike Lee's narrow-minded counterfactual dogma) about #sex, #gender, #sexuality, or #genderIdentity. It would also specifically ID verification to accessing the web from any known #VPN egress point.

KOSA, the KIDS Act, AI, Bad Internet Bills, and a potential giveaway to big tech
It's a confusing situation, but with the House reportedly voting next week it seems like a good time for an update!

⚠️ Here's info that paints the urgency around the internet bills.
There is a minimum of 36 hours between passing from subcommittee to when it can be voted on in committee. It sounds like they are trying to slam it through.
Call your reps!

🚨⚠️ URGENT ‼️ Congress is pushing through 18 bills that could age-gate and censor the internet as we speak.
Call the House Energy and Commerce committee + your own representatives and tell them you OPPOSE these efforts!

RE: https://mastodon.neat.computer/@privacyguides/115727078744271749
I say this about every Privacy Guides video, because it is repeatedly true, but this video is our best one yet 🤩 https://youtu.be/q0hE4EM7RRo
And this is an absolutely critical watch if you're in the U.S.A., or at least contact your reps via https://www.badinternetbills.com/ if you don't watch. The bills being proposed (largely by Democrats, they are not fighting for you!) will have a devastating global impact on free speech and privacy online.

Last week in the United States of America, Congress began fast-tracking nearly 20 bills in a massive effort to enact massive censorship on the internet, decimate your ability to use computers privately, and severely restrict free speech online.
We sat down with @taylorlorenz to dissect these 'Bad Internet Bills' and what you need to know to stop them: https://www.privacyguides.org/videos/2025/12/16/taylor-lorenz-on-kosa-the-screen-act-and-repealing-section-230/

House subcommittee markup of KOSA and other "online safety" bills this Thursday!
It's at 10:15 am, Eastern Standard Time (UTC -5) this Thursday, December 11. Bills also include he odious SCREEN Act, the App Store Accountability Act, COPPA 2.0 (aka CTOPPA), and more. It looks like it will be livestreamed here.
Now's a very good time to contact your representative! Here's Fight for the Future's suggested script, from https://www.badinternetbills.com/
“Hi there, My name is (your name) and I am calling to oppose multiple harmful internet bills that are moving through Congress right now. I oppose all bills that mandate online ID checks, infringe upon our constitutional right to free speech on the internet, enable government policing of online resources, and threaten end-to-end encryption. If you truly care about young people’s experience on the internet, you should pass comprehensive data privacy legislation and oppose any bill that forces Internet users to submit to ID checks or would censor the internet, like the SCREEN Act, App Store Accountability Act, and KOSA.”
https://www.badinternetbills.com/ has a calling tool that connects you with your representative, or you can just use the Capitol Hill Switchboard at (202) 224-3121. If you're not sure who your representative is, you can look it up here.

If you live in the #us, please write your #senators and #congressmen about the #screenact. The SCREEN Act is going to implement #internet policy similar to the UK here in the United States. It creates a surveillance nanny-state and sets a dangerous precedent. We don’t need it! We need parents to be parents and restrict their children from viewing objectionable material on the internet.
