🧵THREAD: The KIDS Act is a parade of bad internet bills stuffed into one package and presented under the guise of “protecting kids online.”
Let’s get into how this bill completely fails to protect children.👇
@LibertarianGrif@WadeMiller@JonSchweppe Yes actually, by Meta. Jon in particular gets very quiet when you point out this allegedly Anti-big tech legislation is in fact funded by big tech.
Your tweets and retweets aren't going to do shit. Pressure matters if you want to stop KOSA. Why do you think it hasn't passed yet? Because we used https://t.co/iPxvmaorsX to call representatives and put pressure on them not to pass it. But we NEED all hands on deck.
@campdramatic@NexusPointNews Kids first and foremost (probably), then executives at CN that see this kind of like their spongebob/the Simpsons, i dont have hard numbers or anything but I cant imagine TTG is particularly expensive to produce.
@Actually_Tina GTA 5 had more general availability though. Like you could walk into a target/Walmart and buy it. You have several retailers flat out refusing to sell 6 because of this.
CALL YOUR REPS
EVEN IF IT DOESN’T GO THROUGH YOU CAN LEAVE A MESSAGE
mass waves of callers genuinely are the reason why KOSA hasn’t passed yet. if you want a free and open internet, your reps need to know that
Probably a good time to remind people, a 2 billion dollar budget is rather difficult to make back. Even at an $80-$100 price point.
GTA constantly relies on people who aren't deep in gaming circles. ie: people that only know physical.
@JonSchweppe Because you're also funded by big tech while also pretending that you're doing something righteous when in actually you're just making it easier for even more sensitive data to be harvested.
@austindashjamal Its easy when you dont really exist in circles that talk about stuff of this nature. The unfortunate side effect of GTA constantly being the thing that breeches the containment of who typically buys a video game.
Here's our first trailer for Kakusei Hunter Omegahorn!
As expected, our protagonist uses a megaphone-like device to summon and control giant Kaijuu in battle!

@AshenPacts Allegedly this statement was to their investors. Hence the corporate lingo being used.
Considering those people basically live on another planet, who knows how much of this is actually their stance.
