“Big Tech platforms have shown time and time again they will always prioritize their bottom line over the safety of our children,” Senator Blackburn stated in support of the legislation. The irony is that KOSA while appearing to reign in Silicon Valley, may end up entrenching its power by pushing for universal identity verification and more extensive user data collection.
It's not the tech companies. It's LEO. My son was a honeypot on Pornhub, and the people kept reporting it. All the comments said don't watch the video because it was an underage boy. But, LEO kept uploading the video.
That video is STILL on pornhub. The LEO tried to charge me, the mother complaining for viewing it. They said ," how else did you know?". My son brought me his phone on pause to show me that the comments were all saying the video gets uploaded no matter how many times they report it. If he hadn't decided to show me that way, LEO would have been able to charge me for complaining.
The court case was not in the state we live, it was in a nearby state where the video was taken. Being taken from a court case, it would be state. My son is an adult now. It would no longer be up to me.
How does that work? How can you get charged for simply stumbling upon content available on an otherwise legal website? How would LEO track IPs without the website being complicit?
It's the tech companies intentionally frustrating LEO to provoke this response.
They can't seem to do anything about child porn until, whop, look at that, one congressional hearing later and it dies down massively.
This is a game. These are tools. They want your money and then your identity. They are always more Machiavellian than you think. If you're not completely paranoid you're not paying attention.
Pornhub told me, and my son multiple times that there was nothing they could do BECAUSE it was LEO uploading the video. Then reporting to the police for what the police was doing was a waste of time.
The cretins uploading it are LEO who got it from the court case where the woman in the video with my son went to jail. Complaining made LEO try to charge me the mother with the crime of watching child porn. The LEO made it clear they had no intention to atop uploading.
If you read PA news , you've seen this case. I worry about doxxing. Its dramatic, and memorable. I was talking about the horrible news on the phone, and my son walked in and said, " that's me.". I didn't believe it at first. The news was that dramatic.
Is it possible to get your son to press charges then? Surely they can't complain about him viewing a video of himself when he takes action to see that it stops being uploaded.
This has a simple solution if the laws motivations are earnest.
The ISP, on sign up, must ask the user if they
1.Live with a child
2.Plan to let children use their internet connection.
If they answer yes to either, they are allocated an ipv4 address ending in an even octet and/or an ipv6 address with the 64th most significant bit high. Otherwise odd and low.
That way any website can tell exactly who is definitely not a child by simply checking the remote IP with no identification needed other than the ip they already have. Easy peasy, especially since nearly all American ISPs use static IPs since 2019(as an aside, something that I have always found very, very suspicious).
But we all know this law is not earnest, it is to gather information on people and have federal jack booted terrorists lock them up for years without trial like they did to J6 protestors.
another very simple tech solution: utilize a sanitized DNS such as the cleanbrowsing DNS. it's already a crime to give your child access to porn, such a DNS makes it nearly impossible for your child to put you in danger of breaking this law.
internet router and modem manufacturers can ship their products with simple ways to turn this on, maybe even a physical button on the router itself (pw protected keypad?).
Parents gain tools to protect their kids from porn, porn sites lose their ability to groom kids, the internet remains anonymous. there are no downsides.
Once again: this will do nothing to stop the exploitation of children online: it WILL be used to stop you from speaking out against it.

So not only does law enforcement not bother getting that shit deleted from the file hosting sites but they actively spread it. Nice.

Federal or State LE? Does your state allow private prosecution?
The court case was not in the state we live, it was in a nearby state where the video was taken. Being taken from a court case, it would be state. My son is an adult now. It would no longer be up to me.

It was a threat because I was bringing attention to what they were doing.

No.
Pornhub told me, and my son multiple times that there was nothing they could do BECAUSE it was LEO uploading the video. Then reporting to the police for what the police was doing was a waste of time.
And you decided not to call the FBI or the news?
'k.
The woman in the video went to jail. That court case is where they took the video from.
Can they not IP ban them for uploading child pornography? Can no one bring charges against the cretins uploading it?
The cretins uploading it are LEO who got it from the court case where the woman in the video with my son went to jail. Complaining made LEO try to charge me the mother with the crime of watching child porn. The LEO made it clear they had no intention to atop uploading.

It would have to be found again.
Which senators reintroduced this?
Never let evil take root.
Politicians should be afraid to even propose this kind of legislation.
Kinda hilarious that reclaimthenet.org is whining about internet surveillance, when their website doesn't work on privacy oriented browsers.
Which browser are you using?
Brave
works on my machine
Try Soul.
It's ok at least there's the 2nd amendment.That will sure put a stop to these dastardly plans. :p
So instead of punishing pedos.. they punish everyone else so they dont look "bigoted" against pedos aka lgbt.

The deep state colludes with big tech and always comes to the same answer.
Your elected politicians are bamboozled/useless to stop it.
