40 senators have sponsored a bi-partisan bill forcing you to upload your drivers license before being able to post to the internet and viewing content.
It’s called the “Kids Online Safety Act” (KOSA)/ Senate Bill 1409.
KOSA ties your content online back to your name and address.
Experts say it will be useful to prevent cyberbullying and exposing children to pornography.
This is just an excuse to implement a Digital ID requirement for internet access which will eventually be tied to a social credit system.
It’s always under the guise of “protecting the children”.

KOSA ties your content on twitter, meta, reddit, etc back to your name and address
-It completely removes anonymity when you post
-they’ll know your history
-they’ll limit access to information and content (xxx, medical info, gun safety info, dissenting content, etc)
-and it gives the attorney general the right to sue Meta, Twitter, TikTok, etc if they’re not following thisIt’s always under the guise of “protecting the children”
If you don’t think this can pass, then you’ve been asleep. States have already been passing bills this year at record pace linking your drivers license to your ability to watch spicy content, why not on a federal level but take it a step further?
This isn’t a left issue, a right issue, this is a speech issue. Call your Senators and demand they don’t support Senate Bill 1409
