It's not gonna affect me

But I'm against it

Wait what

If this ‘Kids Online Safety Act’, or KOSA, for short, passes, I’m leaving Imgflip.

?

Wait what is it exactly what’s wrong with it?

Wait why? I looked at it... And it's just COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) but better.

It's basicly a way to allow parents to completely control there chilldren

I think that if it passes I will genuinely commit arson against the American government

I will literally move across the planet to kill some idiots

Uh okay...

I'm mad about it

It threatens iceu

And actully all of tumblr, I just want to sign up to it ffs

this sucks. i dont really know how harmful they thought this would actually be

Okay, for those who don’t know, KOSA, or the Kids Online Safety Act, is a bill that will allow parents to see everything kids do on their phones, along with some apps/websites being deleted, like TikTok, Discord, Snapchat, Character.ai, etc. If this bill passes, I won’t come on Imgflip anymore, and even though I’m not on here often, I love posting the things Lucario says in Zorua_Quotes_Lucario. Lucario will not be able to come on here anymore, either. Ever since they found a loophole, they haven’t been online often, but I know that they wouldn’t want to leave their friends without saying a true goodbye, so think of this as a goodbye to both of us, if this bill passes.

ok,the only thing that bothers me is discord and c.ai

They are deleting CHARACTER.AI? Srsly? AND promoting invasion of privacy?
This is terrible... I really hope this never happens, I'm not sure what anyone will do, but if it's goodbye for you, goodbye, I certainly hope it never happens.

Me too, all these apps aren’t guaranteed to be deleted, but Character.ai, and many others, are being considered for deletion.

UGHHHH! WHY??? COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) is better than this! And yes, I know I said otherwise, but now that I know the REAL things that they're doing with this, I HATE THIS!

I hope by 'deletion' they just mean that they are going to make them less available for young kids or something and not shoot it of the internet completely.
If they do that like, just imagine going to college to learn programming so you can create AI software for the internet to use for fun and spending months reworking the site and taking care of it only for some absurd 'online protection' act to take it down for no good reason.

Same...
