We won't let this stand any longer. Let's start a riot and get this trending.
There’s no doubt that if KOSA, an internet censorship bill, passes and gives state attorney generals power over the internet, they’ll use it to censor information about:
-The genocides happening in Palestine, the Congo, and Sudan
-The LGBTQIA+ community, their resources, issues, and history
-Racial issues, history, and group resources
Here are websites where you can email and call your representatives to help fight against the bill:
Bad Internet Bills
StopKosa
EFF Action Center
KOSA AFFECTS US ALL
there will be no room to call for a free palestine, congo, sudan, or yemen when imperialists control what stays on the internet.
there will be no room for sharing queer joy, safe binding and tucking guides, or tutorials on how to safely navigate kink when queerphobes and puritans decide what kinda of relationships and identities are "acceptable".
there will be no room for anticapitalism, protest organizing, pirating, or sharing anti-establishment resources when the establishment can erase whatever ideas are too threatening to them to stay.
there will be no room to be someone who doesn't conform.
DOWNLOAD ALL THAT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. PROTEST AS LOUDLY AS POSSIBLE. SIGN PETITIONS. BUILD ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATIONS FOR YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS. AND DO IT NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
GOOD NEWS! PLEASE READ!
KOSA has been delayed! It's not for too long, just until January. But this gives us more time to continue sending emails and calling. ITS WORKING! KEEP CALLING! KEEP EMAILING!
(I was alerted of this because I'm on Fight for the Future's email list)
Here's the link to continue the fight!:
GUYS. DONT PANIC TOO MUCH ABOUT KOSA YET
if it passes the Senate, it’s not over yet. It still needs to go through the House (which is sorta a mess rn) and it needs to be signed into law.
Again, if it passes the senate you don’t need to say goodbyes or delete any accounts yet!! Do not panic!!!
in the meantime though, please call and speak out against this awful bill if you can!!
Again, this is false!! There are no hearings for KOSA on March 13th—or even in March!
Proof:
These are all of the hearings scheduled for March; the one on the 13th is for Veterans. You can even look at hearing schedule on the Congress website (pictured in first image) & periodically check for yourself—just tap on the hearing to read what it’s about.
I understand people are scared, but please make sure you’ve got your facts straight before posting; otherwise you’ll make people panic for nothing.
Please spread this around, there’s still no set date for a vote—WE STILL HAVE TIME!!!
KOSA Moves to the House
KOSA is still moving forward and OTW Legal explains how fans can add their voices and who to contact. Read more at https://otw-news.org/37dhnd5a

(IMPORTANT UPDATE: Kosa will not necessarily pass on the 26th. It only has the support to pass in Senate, and we STILL HAVE TIME. That being said, time is of the essence.)

YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
There's no WAY they're just gonna try and make the whole internet babysit kids rather than actually TARGET THE PEOPLE HARMING THEM or holding parents accountable
If this bill passes I may not be able to post here or on Youtube anymore
I may not be able to talk to my friends on Discord
I'll lose some of the most important people in my life
I'll lose some of the things that make me the happiest
This bill absolutely CANNOT pass, I'm literally begging that this doesn't pass
but I have a feeling that it will
!!PLEASE STOP SCROLLING AND READ THIS!!
There's something called a KOSA Bill in the US. It's a project planning to cut off internet access to ALL CHILDREN WORLDWIDE. This means they are banning Chai/C.AI, Wattpad, AO3, Discord, Tumblr, Tiktok, etc.
To make matters worse, parents will have access to their children's internet activity, meaning chats, websites visited, apps opened, etc. Giving them NO privacy whatsoever. Esp. children who are LGBTQIA+, because in the US, it is deemed "inappropriate".
There is a solution to this, however only to people who have Tiktok, there is a user named omarsbigsister, if you check their profile, you can see in their bio it says "STOP KOSA!! ⬇️⬇️"
Below the text, there's a link. Now before you click on the link, there's a video you need to see, giving you instructions on what to do.
This is the video.
Plz do WHATEVER you can to boost this, tag friends, reblog, share, anything will do.

SPREAD THE WORD !
this is a form to send a letter to stop KOSA, the Kids Online Safety Act. KOSA, despite the name, will make the internet much more dangerous. it is unconstitutional. Lawmakers have reintroduced the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), a dangerous censorship bill that would give the government unprecedented control over the internet. KOSA won’t make kids more safe. Instead, it’ll put youth in danger by preventing them from accessing resources they need. Lawmakers concerned about online safety should reject KOSA and instead work to protect all internet users from abusive tech companies by passing a Federal data privacy law. pleas, fill out the form, and send it in. we cannot let KOSA pass.
OKAY SO GOOD NEWS: THE KOSA HEARING HAS APPARENTLY BEEN MOVED TO MARCH 13-16 INSTEAD!! WE STILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME!!!
THAT BEING SAID, WE STILL DEFINITELY NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO PASS!!
For Palestines sake.
For Yamens sake.
For Congos sake.
For LGBTQIA+ kids and adults alike.
For everyone.
FUCK OFF KOSA, AND FUCK OFF AMERICA!
Stop KOSA. KOSA just got passed through the House and More organizations even Twitter and Snapchat. Social media companies it aims to delete are coming out in support of it. This content creator has been covering KOSA for a long time. If you remember when AO3 was down how everyone freaked out. KOSA could take AO3 off the Internet. Could remove queer content online. The ACLU opposes it. It's unconstitutional call your Senators. Call your Representatives. Call everyone you can in power and tell them to oppose this bill. Sign petitions follow the link in that creators bio. Go to bad Internet Bills dot com and get call script or fax script for it. Contact the ACLU about suing states that support KOSA. We can still fight. End KOSA protect online safety!
Just wanted to take a moment to say that if KOSA passes on the 26th, it won't be a law yet. It is in the senate, and will still need to pass in the house. If KOSA passes on the 26th, do not panic, simply start contacting your representatives in the house en masse to tell them to oppose KOSA.
With the stress about KOSA, I absolutely must tell you.
WE HAVE BEAT THEM MANY TIMES BEFORE. WE CAN DO IT AGAIN. Do your part and share what you can. We are so much more powerful than how fascists may perceive us.
This is your daily reminder to stop kosa. Email your reps or go to badinternetbills.com/ and it will send the email for you. You can also edit what it will say in the email.
Also share information about kosa and how to stop it with everyone, you could reblog or just post your own post on your blog or text a friend. Even telling one person makes a difference.
So the anti KOSA discord I'm apart of is doing a large anti KOSA call in tomorrow. Where we call our Representatives and tell them to say no to KOSA. You can call through badinternetbills.com. This bill concerns everyone online and may lead to the dissolving of all of your favorite spaces online if you don't speak up and out against it
