Last fight for internet freedom - Say 'no' to KOSA
Today is the day that they decided that KOSA should be legal, unfortunately they signed it.... BUT! Before anyone panics, it's not the end of the world, in fact there is still a chance to stop this. Yes, they unfortunately signed it, but it's not official yet, the reason for that is because two senators had voiced their concerns about this bill thanks to all the people emailing and calling.

Even worse, President Biden himself has urged Senate to pass this horrible bill, along with COPPA 2.0! I've done everything I can up to this point...signed the petitions multiple times, signal boosted, even made a few calls despite not being from America...and I'm exhausted. Things are looking very gloomy, and the only thing I can do now is pray for a miracle. If they're that butthurt over data collection and banning sites, there's no doubt that
