Not one mention of the word "KOSA" in the article, had to check if this is the "appoint one person in the commerce department and have their definition of 'harmful' be what the government now can totally ban from the united states internet" bill.

If Trump wins, "harmful" will be defined as any mention online that the United States use to be a democracy instead of a kingship.
