Digital ID for the Net? Senate Momentum Grows Behind UK‑Like Surveillance Plan

KOSA: The Digital ID Trojan Horse Disguised as Child Protection

The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) has picked up steam in the Senate, with 43 co-sponsors across both parties ready to burn the Bill of Rights in the name of “child safety.” What they’re really building is the scaffolding for mandatory digital IDs—and once those go live, forget about private browsing, pseudonyms, or dissenting speech.

This Orwellian push mirrors the UK’s disastrous Online Safety Act, where Brits now face ID checks to access content and facial recognition for age verification. Privacy is being legislated into extinction, and our own senators are applauding.

Big Tech’s Cozy Relationship with Government Censorship

Apple, predictably, is licking its chops. The surveillance-industrial complex sees gold in user data, and they’ve learned that when regulation comes knocking, it’s best to play ball—and write the rules yourself.

KOSA mandates the FTC to enforce undefined standards of “harm,” pushing platforms to over-moderate content, even without explicit government takedown orders. The result? A chilling effect across the internet, where only sanitized, state-approved speech survives.

And who can afford to implement device-level verification and real-time surveillance? Not indie sites or privacy-first platforms. No, this bill ensures Big Tech dominance while smothering grassroots alternatives.

Anonymity is the Enemy: The Real Target Behind the Smokescreen

Buried in the text is the most dystopian clause: a directive for federal agencies to “explore systems to verify age at the device or operating system level.” Translation? Every smartphone, laptop, and tablet becomes a snitch. Every user gets tagged and bagged.

This is not a kids’ safety tool. It’s a national ID system for the internet, disguised as virtue. And once it's in place, you can bet your last Satoshi that it won't stop at minors.

The List of Shame: Senators Backing the End of Online Freedom

Here’s the rogue’s gallery—senators, both red and blue, who are ready to make mass surveillance law. This isn’t left vs. right. This is the ruling class vs. the rest of us.

Time to Act: Defend Digital Freedom Before It’s Gone

If we allow KOSA to pass, the era of anonymous browsing, pseudonymous speech, and privacy by design is over. This isn’t a slippery slope—it’s a nosedive into digital tyranny.
