Here is a link to learn more about the bill.
It is also important to note this legislation also includes language for ongoing, real-time monitoring. Not just verification
Here is a summary from the link shared above:
Requires manufacturers of internet-enabled devices to conduct age assurance to determine a user's age category and provide all websites, online services, online applications and mobile applications on such user's internet-enabled device and/or application store manufactured by the covered manufacturer with a digital signal that such user is a covered minor as well as the age category of such covered minor via a real-time application programming interface (API).
I love the inclusion of the API acronym; all super serious sounding. Like these dumb pedophiles even know what an API is!
You are encouraged to have an opinion about this. It is obvious what is happening here.
Do you have the spine to be remembered?
We are at an epic turning point in human history. Those who rise to meet that standard are today's heroes.
The real world, filled with everyday people, needs individuals who embody a willingness to say "Get fucked!"
If this is your first time learning about heroics, look up information about the "hero's journey". Also known as the "monomyth".
It's okay to be new. What isn't okay is to sit on the sidelines in today's world.
You are alive today. Take full advantage of it.
Who decides what is misinformation and how do we regulate that on international websites?
Disingenuous argument from the jump. International websites can very easily be blocked (see- the great firewall)
and acting like we've never had a nonpartisan committee to decided if things are false is wild.
Now, a nonpartisan commission? Not likely outside local politics.
Can be, but should they be? Is that what you're proposing as a solution? What about social media which is also international?
Again, with the disingenuous arguments. You're shifting language here to work for you. You know damn good and well we are talking about misinformation. Why would international websites with good information be blocked?
How about you come up with something better, since you're so damn good at finding "holes" in other peoples proposals.
I'm was not poking holes in your arguments, I'm asking questions. Questions aren't arguments or statements.
I'm not against a "Great Firewall" for each Nation, that's not a bad idea at all.
There's no feasible way to determine that without also having a "Great Acceptable List of Websites".
^^^ That's poking a hole in your argument.
I did, see my comment on the original as linked here
