    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.
