90+ groups oppose US Kids Online Safety Act
US legislation that aims to protect kids' online safety and data privacy will have "damaging unintended consequences for young people," according to more than 90 privacy and civil rights groups.In a letter sent to US Senate leaders on Monday, the organizations urged lawmakers to kill the proposed Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), which they warned would incentivize service providers to collect more data on children, limit access to sex education and resources for LGBTQ+ youth, and allow parents to spy on their teens.
