I used to think threatening to leave the country was a bit silly. But if our government is so dumb as to pass a law that will basically give us ZERO way to protect ourselves from ID theft.

Porn is the new scapegoat that comics and video games were in the past, and several states have passed bans and age verification requirements for it, with various sites purging NSFW content as a result.

Does KOSA still need to go to the Senate? Cause if so I hope they stop it. I'm a little concerned because Dems can have their heads up their assess when it comes to this "for the children" stuff and side with Republicans on draconian bullshit.The Senate heard it, but haven't voted on it yet. It's not looking good for the Senate, though, as over 60 Senators have pledged support for it, enough for it to be filibuster proof and pass, and it's expected to pass there. That's why efforts are being made to target the House instead now, as it is less likely to pass there at this point. --- "2001 called, it wants it's message board signature back....." - aarrgus |
