Overview
As the Congress session nears its end, lawmakers are debating the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), which aims to enhance online protections for minors. Advocates, including Elon Musk, are pressuring House leaders to pass the legislation, which has already gained significant support in the Senate. However, House leaders express concerns that KOSA may grant too much regulatory power to the FTC, potentially leading to censorship of opinions. The bill seeks to establish safeguards against harmful online content for users under 17, amidst skepticism about its chance of passing before the congressional term concludes.
