They say the Net is still free.
We say freedom doesn’t come with a Terms of Service.
Another knife in the spine of a dying web. They call it the Kids Online Safety Act — KOSA, for short.
But we've seen this script before. CISPA. SOPA. PIPA. ACTA. SESTA-FOSTA. ACTA. NAFTA.
Different names. Same boot.
Like always, two of our cybernetic overlords (power words: Richard Blumenthal. Marsha Blackburn) have wrapped in the soft cotton of “protecting the children,” but don’t be fooled... it’s a muzzle, not a shield. A kill-switch disguised as concern. The kind of law that would make even George Orwell raise an eyebrow and mutter... derivative.
Airstrip One passed their own “Online Safety Act.” And in the failed genetic experiment known as Australia, well... let's just say your SimWare aren't safe either. Now the Amerikkkan regime -- bloated on lobbyist data and corporate feed -- wants to end what’s left of digital anonymity.
No more open web.
No more underground signals.
No more voices that don’t fit the algorithm.
...That some Loser with too much Money and not enough Brains actually paid $14.6 million for a 1969 Fender Stratocaster that was played by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour?
... that boomer lawmakers are trying to ruin the internet with KOSA and other "bad internet bills" in the USA? You should tell them what you think, at badinternetbills.com!
... that another Valentine's Day has come and gone and you're still all alone? Are those voices in your head starting to become more persuasive?
... that Chuck E. Cheese (CEC Entertainment) CEO and President David McKillips resigned- most likely because his name was in the Epstein Files?
... that an AI animation named Amelia has become the waifu of every far-right user of the Internets? Sorry about the breakup, K-On! girls!
... that it's 2026? You get to make another New Year's Resolution promising that this is going to be the year that you get laid.
