Legislators are considering attaching KOSA (the anti-LGBTQ+ censorship bill, aka the Kids Online Safety Act) to must-pass legislation authorizing the FAA. As EFF points out, the latest version of KOSA is still a censorship bill.
So if you’re in the US, it’s once again a good time to contact your Congresspeople. EFF’s got an action here that makes it makes it easy, and so does www.stopkosa.com
I like the way the author describes the intentions of the bill at face value (protecting children!) exactly as the authors do, without any journalistic analysis of that being true or not. Could have ended the article with actual information from somewhere like the EFF, but instead, mentioned a concern from a nonprofit that “receives money from tech companies.”
What an absolute joke to call this journalism. No wonder they’re losing their jobs to algorithmic language models with no concern for anything other than sensible use of English grammar.
