The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) is a well-intentioned bill that attempts to address a serious issue – the exposure of children to harmful material online – in a way that dangerously violates the First Amendment right to free expression.
Creates an exception to Section 230 immunity for information “harmful to minors” unless they “implement a system designed to effectively screen users who are minors from accessing such content, to the extent feasible using technology available at the time of such distribution.”
