The Senate just passed a bill that will let the federal and state governments investigate and sue websites that they claim cause kids mental distress. It’s a terrible idea to let politicians and bureaucrats decide what people should read and view online, but the Senate passed KOSA on a 91-3 vote....
There will likely be companies dedicated solely to offering “plug and play” services to become and stay KOSA-compliant, it will be their main source of revenue. Big tech giants, will do the bare minimum to stay compliant, then censor whatever anyone asks them, so long as they can keep peddling ads and siphoning user online behavior patterns. If it makes smaller competing sites incur in higher expenses and ideally kill them off, so much the better.
