ID verification would spike identity theft and fraud. People will obviously try to get not actual IDs to past verification and remain free. They won't get caught unless too many use the same ID or if they do something the gov considers heinous which in this day may even be something mundane like government criticism.

These laws remove responsibility to parents and companies to protect children. They can now point to the law and say its not in their hands anymore but truly the government can't just magically spawn* (asterisk) out of nowhere and tell little Jimmy to brush his teeth. Parents are still required to do their job and care for their kids as companies will always need to catch people who dodge the rules to get it with children which always exist. Companies especially may put less effort into child safety because it means less money spent. KOSA and SCREEN will harm child safety, not protect it.

NSFW content isn't leaving the internet and it will find new ways to move around. Many people mention the abolition era where people opened speakeasies and made moonshine in their tubs. People also mentioned more entering the dark web, something made for situations like this anyways. The main point? People, including horny teenagers, will just find another sneakier way to access NSFW content. This actually makes the "oh so pure fight against nasty content" Absolutely worse as people will be hiding it more. A teen wouldn't want to humiliate themselves by tying their ID to seeing porn, but they sure will FIND A WAY TO DO IT. This way might genuinely put them in danger of preds and groomers. It could also turn the consumption of the content into trade as people may need to access personal stashes of this content.

That's all I have so far. I had a list of US bills regarding censorship but I haven't finished it yet.

Your ID bill is the SCREEN act in both of the Legislative branch. The remaining bills either add more to COPPA and make it worse, one defines obscenity in a open to interpretation way, and the two warring in privacy.

Obviously, still issues that existed when I was a kid and websites oriented towards children were still very prevalent, but it feels that it's only been worsened as children were pushed out towards other social media to engage with others in far less strictly moderated spaces.

I wish parents would do their job as parents instead of expecting the world to fulfill that duty for them. You might as well get rid of slides or swings or other playground equipment. They might hurt themselves there too if you look away.

There was something I was trying to say with this post but I can't fully articulate, ah well.

IF THEY CARED ABOUT THE CHILDREN, THEY WOULD CRACK DOWN ON CHILD ABUSE, PEDOPHILIA, SA, SCHOOL SHOOTINGS (GUN LAWS), AND THEY WOULD REALEASE THE EPSTINE FILES!!!!!

They saw my scars as a kid, heard my story, and did NOTHING. They saw my friend's hair patchy, her skin briused and beaten, and did NOTHING. My friend committed suicide when I was little because of their mom, and they did NOTHING. THEY COULDN'T GIVE LESS OF A SHIT ABOUT YOUR CHILDREN!

KOSA/SCREEN/OSA was never meant for the kids. It was meant to put us under constant surveillance and censor the internet while keeping future generations stupid and naïeve s the government can do whatever the hell they want with little to no resistance... If we censor things like the entirety of Wikipedia, instead of just the pages that are already labeled as inappropriate, from children, they won't be able to educate themselves on red flags...

That, and instead of cracking down on neglectful parents to start parenting their children, their forcing something on all of us that could put our identities at risk. Because they never want to investigate anything until it's too late...

And for all of you idiots who think that standing up for privacy = defending pedophiles, let me tell you how this actually HELPS pedophiles. Putting it simply: it gives hints as to who's a minor and who's not, they have opportunities to learn who, by, let's say, sending a Wikipedia article to sombody, in which a child would say "oh, I can't open that".

When I was a child, I was told by every adult I knew never to send personal information online, so why the hell would I give it to a random fucking big company now that I'm an adult?

I know these are different from my usual edits but due to the current state of the world I made these to vent. I'm just fucking tired 😔 also please don’t forget your daily click

I beg everyone to watch this whole video in full, everything you know now is at stake here, your comfort videos, your comfort fics, your fucking freedom is in danger, do NOT let our government dictate what you do at every waking hour. Fight for your freedom because if you don't it will only get worse and what you know today will not be what it is tomorrow.
