Are you wondering how come the US is implementing age verification too? This is an orchestrated lockstep agenda implementation, of the UN’s agenda 2030. All 193 member nation states are implementing it. Each with its own flavor and nuance. Freedom exists only if we keep developing it, protecting it and using it.

KOSA Is Back & They’re Silencing Those Speaking Up KOSA is back, it passed the House, and now the Senate gets another shot at doing what this government does best: pretending to protect kids while handing censors, lobbyists, and unelected bureaucrats more power over what the public is allowed to say and see online. If you think that sounds dramatic, I am literally being silenced on TikTok for speaking out about it. Please stand up and make some noise while there’s still time.

For anyone upset about Sony’s move to end physical media, I’d suggest heavily supporting Stop Killing Games This initiative is literally fighting to protect exactly what these companies want to destroy. It aims to force publishers to ensure you can always access and play the games you paid for—even after they stop supporting them

BILL SEEKS SOCIAL MEDIA BAN FOR CHILDREN READ: A bill called “Children’s Social Media Safety Act” was filed at the House of Representatives, pushing to establish regulatory standards for use of social media among children. The measure from House Speaker Bojie Dy, Senior Deputy

**This bill is a fucking Trojan Horse. Period.**🚨🚨🚨 Its a federal surveillance and control system over the entire internet that will be used on adults.🚨🚨🚨 Using child safety. As cover 🚨🚨 1. It builds a national digital ID system through the back door.🚨⚠️ The bill says three times it does not require age verification. That is a lie. Every single protection in the bill only triggers when a platform "knows or should have known" a user is a minor. No platform can prove it did not know without checking. The bill creates a legal trap where the only safe path is to card everyone. Once that infrastructure is built, it does not get turned off when you turn 18. The same system that checks if you are 16 today checks if you are 21 tomorrow. The same database that verifies a teenager verifies a gun buyer, a voter, a patient. This is a national digital identity system built under the cover of child protection. ⚠️⚠️2. It hands the FTC the keys to the internet.** The FTC gets authority over age verification standards, content safety audits, data broker registries, social media research, chatbot rules, gaming platform safety, educational resources, advertising regulations, and enforcement of the entire act. The FTC becomes the operational regulator of the American internet. This is the largest federal power grab over online platforms in a decade, buried inside a children's safety bill where nobody will vote against it. ⚠️⚠️3. It forces companies to spy on children to prove they are protecting them.** The audit requirements mandate platforms track and report how many minors use their service, how long they spend, what safety features they use, what reports they file, and what personal information is collected. The government orders companies to gather detailed statistics about children under the banner of protecting them. A bill that claims to protect children's privacy mandates the collection of more data about children than has ever been collected before. 🚨🚨4. It shields Big Tech and crushes small competitors. The data broker rules exempt Google, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft because their product is advertising services, not data sales. The companies that collect the most minor data in the world are exempt from the data broker regulations. The compliance costs annual third-party audits, safety tools, parental controls, reporting systems, age verification infrastructure cost millions. Big tech absorbs this. Small platforms die. The bill consolidates market power among the largest tech monopolies while pretending to regulate them. 5. It cuts parents out through school contracts.**🚨🚨🚨 Educational technology companies can collect children's personal information without parental consent if they have a written agreement with a school. The school consents. The parent is never told. Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams, Canvas—they all get direct access to student data through school district contracts. This is a corporate pipeline of minor data with zero parental involvement, written into a bill that claims to empower parents. 6. It kills encryption through regulatory pressure. 🚨🚨🚨 The bill says it does not require breaking encryption. Another lie. It requires platforms to provide messaging controls, content filtering, and safety features for minors. On an end-to-end encrypted platform, you cannot filter content you cannot see. The only way to comply is to either break encryption for minor accounts or disable it entirely. The bill creates regulatory pressure to destroy encryption while claiming to protect it. Once encryption is weakened for minors, the vulnerability exists for everyone.

The internet could change if the U.S. House passes the KIDS Act today to "protect children." Critics warn it could mean de facto age checks for everyone and weakened encrypted communications. The KIDS Act is a package of around a dozen bills that pairs a revised Kids Online Safety Act with new age-verification, AI chatbot, and messaging rules. Digital rights group EFF warns the design would pressure platforms to age-check all users, not just minors, since liability can attach when a service "should have known" a user's age, and flags new rules touching encrypted and disappearing messages. Sponsors Brett Guthrie (R) and Frank Pallone (D) say it's kids-safety protection and note KOSA's text says age verification isn't required.

Of course the KIDS Act isn’t about protecting actual kids, it’s a massive surveillance bill. We should fight like hell to KILL IT. Could be introduced as early as next week.

If the KIDS Act H.R. 7757 passes, here is what we are going to get. > Mandatory age checks for online access > Government-mandated content safety policies > Perpetual monitoring of online speech > Potential censorship of lawful speech > Restrictions on "addictive" online content > "Harmful" content is heavily moderated This is going to lead to a mass chilling effect, not just on controversial "speech" and opinions, but also on lawful adult content. It will lead to data breaches, mass doxxing, and various other privacy issues as well. Even if it does pass, it won't meaningfully stop minors and kids from accessing content they are not supposed to access, as most are smart enough to find workarounds for it... then... ...this could potentially pave the way towards harsher restrictions on internet privacy, such as outlawing VPNs and encrypted transmission of data.
