A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Let's hope it passes this time. The "controversy" seems to be the typical, forced nonsense. It'd be nothing but a win for children's privacy and mental health.

I will trust the experienced lawyers and civil rights advocates at the ACLU, thanks. Nothing about this bill is good for children, it is a direct attempt to allow government to exert control over online spaces' content, as well as de-anonymize internet users. Both of those are bad, including for kids.

The ACLU is a freaking joke, not sure why you'd trust them. They're literally making up excuses to try to prevent this from passing. Makes you wonder about their reasoning.

Don't feed the troll, folks.
