In this episode, Ari Cohn, Free Speech Counsel at Tech Freedom, discusses the proposed Kids Online Safety Act, which the Senate is currently considering. Cohn begins by explaining the history of KOSA and similar previous bills, what KOSA is supposed to accomplish, and how it's supposed to accomplish that goal. He explains why KOSA as drafted presents intractable practical and First Amendment problems. And he argues that Congress should reject KOSA in its entirety. Cohn is on Twitter at @AriCohn.
