This overwhelming bipartisan support mirrors the powerful calls from young people & parents who want Congress to take action & finally hold Big Tech accountable. KIDS ONLINE SAFETY ACT GROWING MOMENTUM FOR THE KIDS ONLINE SAFETY ACT: BLUMENTHAL & BLACKBURN ANNOUNCE 60+ COSPONSORS & SUPPORTERS The bipartisan bill is now cosponsored by a total of 62 U.S. Senators, with new changes to strengthen the broadly supported legislation announced [WASHINGTON, DC]-On the heels of the Senate's hearing with Big Tech CEOs, U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Marsha Blackbum (R-TN), lead sponsors of the bipartisan Kids Online Safety Act, announced growing US Senate support for the bill, with a total of 62 senators now cosponsoring the legislation. Following conversations with stakeholders and colleagues, Blumenthal and Blackbum also announced new bill supporters and several changes that have been made to strengthen the legislation and ensure it becomes law. "This overwhelming bipartisan support for the Kids Online Safety Act-62 total co- sponsors, Democrats and Republicans reflects the powerful voices of young people and parents who want Congress to act," said Blumenthal and Blackburn "The recent watershed bearing with Big Tech CEOs showcased the urgent need for reform. With new changes to strengthen the bill and growing support, we should seize this moment to take action. We must listen to the kids, parents, experts, and advocates, and finally bold Big Tech accountable by passing the Kids Online Safety Act into law." "Children and teens have been subjected to online harassment, bullying, and other harms for far too long. The Kids Online Safety Act will require social media companies to design their products with the safety of kids and teens in mind, provide parents tools to protect their kids and give families more options for managing and disconnecting from these platforms. I look forward to working on a bipartisan basis with Senators Blumenthal and Blackburn to advance this bill in the Senate," said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). "I committed to work with parents, advocates, and the bill sponsors to strengthen the Kids Online Safety Act in the Commerce Committee and help usher this bill into law. This revised text reflects many months of collaboration to craft a strong and balanced bill that does not lose sight of its purpose: to protect our kids online. KOSA demands accountability from online platforms and gives parents the tools to help protect the well-being of their children," said U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA), Chair of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation "Big Tech companies have failed to keep abhorrent and harmful content away from young users or give parents the tools necessary to keep children safe online. The Kids Online Safety Act is a serious and meaningful step toward empowering parents and protecting our kids from toxic content, bullying, sexual predators, and other online threats. Over the past several months, I am proud to have worked with Sens. Blackburn, Blumenthal, and Cantwell to make improvements to this bipartisan legislation so that it is ready for the Senate floor. As the parent of teenagers, I hope my congressional colleagues will come together to pass this legislation to help address the crises of depression and suicide that children across the country are facing in part because of social media," said US Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation. The Kids Online Safety Act would provide kids and parents with better tools to protect themselves online, hold Big Tech accountable for harms to kids, and provide transparency into black box algorithms. The bill is cosponsored by U.S. Senatoes Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Joni Ernst (R-1A), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Steve Daines (R-MT), Gary Peters (D-MI), Marco Rubio (R-FL), John Hickenlooper (D-CO), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), Chris Murphy (D-CT), Todd Young (R-IN), Chris Coons (D-DE), Chock Grassley (R-IA), Brian Schatz (D-HI), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Mark Warner (D-VA), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Peter Welch (D-VT), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R- MS), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), Dick Durbin (D-IL.), Jim Risch (R-ID), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Katie Britt (R-AL), Bob Casey (D-PA), Rick Scott (R- FL), Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Joe Manchin (D-WV), John Cornyn (R- TX), Tom Carper (D-DE), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Roger Wicker (R- MS), Ben Cardin (D-MD), James Lankford (R-OK), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Bob Menendez (D-NJ), John Thune (R-SD), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and Josh Hawley (R-MO), with US.

Görüntüde, Richard Blumenthal'ın, gençlerin ve ebeveynlerin internet platformlarının sorumluluk almasını istediklerini vurgulayan, "Çocuklar Online Güvenlik Yasası" adlı bir yasa tasarısı hakkındaki bir tweet'i ve bu yasa tasarısına yönelik eleştirileri içeren bir haber makalesi yer alıyor.
Tweet'te, Demokrat ve Cumhuriyetçi siyasilerin bu yasa tasarısına destek verdikleri ve gençlerin ve ebeveynlerin büyük teknoloji şirketlerini hesaba çekmek istedikleri belirtiliyor.
Haber makalesinde ise, bu yasanın aslında internet sansürüne "Truva atı" olarak kullanılabileceği iddia ediliyor. Bu, yasanın görünüşte çocukların online güvenliğini sağlamak için tasarlanmış olsa da, aslında interneti sansürlemek için kullanılabileceği anlamına geliyor. "Truva atı" benzetmesi, görünüşte zararsız olan bir nesnenin (Truva atı), aslında saklı bir tehdit (sansür) içerdiğini anlatmaktadır. Bu nedenle, yasa tasarısına karşı çıkan kişiler, tasarının gerçek niyetinin internet özgürlüğünü kısıtlamak olabileceği konusunda endişeli olduklarını ifade ediyorlar.
