Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [LOCATION] I'm messaging to demand [SENATOR] oppose S. 1748, the Kids Online Safety Act, also known as KOSA. This broad legislation does not protect anyone and instead will be used to block any speech that the Trump administration’s partisan FTC disagrees with. It pushes the “duty of care” onto websites and social media platforms to remove content that is “harmful to children”. It would lead to overcompliance, mass censorship, and remove access to crucial information re: everything from mental health, LGBT topics, substance abuse, eating disorders and more. Additionally, while large, corporate platforms like X can shoulder the weight of “duty of care”, smaller websites cannot, leading to greater and greater concentrations of power online into giant corporate platforms rather than small and medium sized businesses. KOSA will not make kids safer. It will make the internet more dangerous for anyone who relies on it to learn, connect, or speak freely. Lawmakers should reject it, and fast. Thank you for your time and consideration. IF SENATOR COSPONSORED KOSA: Additionally, I want to remark on [SENATOR]’s cosponsorship of this bill. I think it is shameful that [SENATOR] has backed a bill as transparently bad as KOSA. This will not keep kids safe, it is an excuse to censor the free and open internet. I will not be voting for nor donating to [SENATOR] in any future campaigns if they do not drop their co-sponsorship of this bill, and I will encourage everyone in my life to do the same. Do the right thing.

If you're like me and you are struggling to contact your senators re: KOSA via their phone lines this week, I recommend attempting to send physical letters or emails in the meantime.

Here is a script you can use to contact your reps!

I just called a bunch of democratic senators and I just wanted to say this to anyone who believes all hope is lost and we'll never be able to change things in this country. I was able to talk to Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada directly after a brief surprise because I was NOT expecting /1

Map of the United States. Colors for bill consequences: In red: Risk of chilling effect, children may be blocked off CSA and self harm support groups. In purple: Has limited mention for support networks, but no exemptions. Colors for status: In green: Bill blocked in this session. In yellow: Pending. In gray: No active bill in this session.

To give you an idea of how much they "care" about protecting children online.

Out of all states that have approved an age/ID verification bill, none have exemptions for CSA victims to access support groups. MO only forces adult sites to show a helpline number.

(Source: Free Speech Coalition, GPB)

Reminder: Oppose and repeal all the age/ID verification laws. They're not protecting their kids but they are censoring you and demanding your personal info.

Tell them to stop.
Tell them to get rid of this shit.

I am not some fictional character. Gross loli art victimizes no one, and my experiences are not the same.

I’m a real person. I was a child who was abused and trafficked and I deserve to have my humanity and trauma recognized, not treated like it’s the same as a gross sketch of character. @bsky.app

A reminder too that bsky’s new guidelines literally forbid “illustrated CSAM.”

That doesn’t exist. There is no victim in a drawing (unless it is a drawing a real actual person).

“Drawn CSAM” is an insult to every survivor everywhere. It literally dehumanizes us as being the same as an anime OC.

you can spin literally any sexual image as noncon or dubcon if someone dislikes you enough and wants your account banned. that will only be used as another tool ppl can use for harassment, not keeping blsky a sexually safe space

The restrictions Bluesky is trying to implement on fictional content is idiotic and can very easily be abused by moderation teams. We’ve seen it happen on tumblr already with queer content constantly being flagged after the porn ban. No one wants this.

#bskycensorship

stop #bskycensorship

running away to another platform is not going to do anything except delay the inevitable. we have to stand strong and show that we will not tolerate this.

send feedback. post about it. tell @bsky.app @support.bsky.team why the new policies only fuel unfair censorship

Nej til EU’s “Masseovervågning” beskyt vores privatliv, digitale sikkerhed og ytringsfrihed. Vi beder Danmark om at stemme nej til EU’s “Chatkontrol” en lov, der pålægger masseovervågning af alle borgere ved at scanne private beskeder, e-mails

Anthropomorphic dip-pen and inkwell stand infront of a table stacked with books. Pen holds a sign with '18+' drawn on the center, with a heart around it. Inkwell is holding a paper colored rainbow with 'LGBTQA' upon it. Inkwell is holding a hand up in a 'stop' motion. Behind the table is the vague sense of a crowd also holding signs. Above image it reads: "CARTOONISTS Against Adult Content CENSORSHIP"

The Cartoonist Co-op stands against the censorship and pay discrimination of 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.
