"...bills like the Kids Online Safety Act (#KOSA) would open the door to greater surveillance, censorship and control of what people can do online. Those same #freespeech advocates say the evidence lies in what happened to sex workers after the passage of the bills known as Allow States and Victims To Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (#FOSTA) and the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (#SESTA) in 2018.

@alice nodds in agreement and for any stubborn instances: Just tell them to ask the account in question for their "#18USC2257 recordkeeper" to verify both age of performers and consent to the production and distribution.

  • Cuz even the most lenient hosters and admins will react quickly to avoid any liabilities as per #FOSTA & #SESTA!

#NotLegalAdvice

But in return, #KOSA, like #FOSTA & #SESTA, is one of the worst things the #US made as legislation in my lifetime - if not ever in it's existance.

Because it's some half-baked "But we're doing something!" activism without banning #Facebook's business practises of pushing #manipulative content and #disinformation - espechally towards minors!

@OGjester @Dss @arstechnica and then people wounder why #CSA victims may not trust the #USA and it's #LEA|s!

Surprised Pikachu Face neither #FOSTA nor #SESTA changed that for the better...

@martinsteiger @marcel so oder so ist #eID und #Altersverifikation prinzipiell abzulehnen, weil dies nur #Cyberfaschismus normalisiert.

Siehe #UK #OSA sowie #KOSA, #FOSTA & #SESTA in den #USA, welche allesamt #Desinformation unter dem Deckmantel des "#Jugendschutz" pushten.

@marcel ich sehe trotzdem die #eID - Vorstöße kritisch im Kontext selbst erlebter #Angstkultur, #Entrechtung und immer härterem #Polizeistaat mit #Überwachung und #Repression.

Wenn überhaupt müsste dies als reines #OptIn mit explizitem Verbot von #Zwang und #Benachteiligung kodifiziert werden, und selbst dann sehe ich es als problematisch weil allzugern "Optionalitäten" gestrichen werden.

Siehe #PassOhneFinger / #PersoOhneFinger!

@PoliceStateUK then just don't!

@RealJournalism I know a lot of sexworkers that fled the #USA for #Germany when #FOSTA / #SESTA got pushed and more to GTFO before #KOSA...

@openrightsgroup you cannot fix what's inherently broken!

#OSA, like #KOSA, #FOSTA & #SESTA before, is #cyberfacist bs and everyone in favour of it should be voted out of office!

@v_d_richards gute Frage.

Wegen Angst vor #JMStV, #FOSTA / #SESTA & Co. erlauben quasi keine Instanzen #U18.
