it has nothing to do with protecting children and everything to do with destroying privacy
Fine, so who will be judging if there’s a depressive content on the internet, a psychologist? Also how about non-US sites, will they be banned or something?
Why old men are so obsessed with kids? Are they pedo or something?
It’s never about kids. If they gave half a fuck about kids, we’d have free school lunches and teachers would be paid a fair salary.
So long as the internet is around to distribute fact-checks and officer-involved homicide videos they have no plausible lies by which the 80% of us in poverty or precarity should tolerate the abuse of plutocrats and capitalists.
So this is a first amendment issue: it’s about suppression of political speech. It always was 🌍 👩🚀 🔫 👨🚀 🌑
Isn’t this also the bill that could screw up encryption too?
Isn’t it something that China has been doing for a while? In their version, it’s called ‘spreading positive energy’.
It’s almost like everything the US said about China was just a projection of their own insecurities.
It might get to a point where China actually is relatively more liberating than “stable democracies” in internet access.
its always “protect children” or “terrorism”/“national security”
And then they lower the age that kids can get married to 14/15 (pedos!), and change labor laws so pre-teens can work in dangerous jobs or serve alcohol.
If they want to protect “children”, we need Xtra restrictive gun laws, and child abuse laws. Who protects children from abuse at home?
Not conservatives, they are the ones behind all this.
Perhaps politicians should concentrate on making it so there’s less depressing stuff in the world for anyone to see and hear, and not creating more of it with things like this rubbish bill. 🤷♀️
Culturally we’re going back to the Middle Ages…
every time they say it’s to “protect the children” or “protect freedom” it is invariably neither.
What else is new?
woah no way
in other news, every sixty seconds in Africa, a minute passes.
Protect kids from guns would be better.
Good luck with that. They can’t even stop child abuse online and that’s an actual problem that should be solved.
Knowing Biden he’s all in on this, he signed off on the Patriot Act too so f*** him
neoliberals are just as bad as Republicans
