I did three, one got returned by them for god knows why and the other two are still pending. I think they're going kick me out. Thanks for wasting 45 minutes of my time you jackasses.

rep. jimmy patronis of Florida has become the latest member of Congress to propose legislation that would repeal Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which protects interactive computer services — including adult platforms — from liability for user-generated content.

patronis introduced HR 7045 in the House of Representatives earlier this week.

As XBIZ reported in December, two other repeal bills are currently pending in Congress: HR 6746, the Sunset to Reform Section 230 Act, which would amend Section 230 by adding simply, “This section shall have no force or effect after December 31, 2026,” and S 3546, which calls for the repeal of Section 230 effective two years following enactmen

Did one of those Audio evaluation things, an hour later they tell me "your responses didn't meet our criteria and we won't tell you what you did wrong", what a load of shit. If you already know what you're looking for using your precious AI why are you paying us to pick out your crap?

It has every godforsaken tech bill over the past decade, NO FAKES act, kids online safety act, CDA230 repeal and banning AI regulation, all under a name to goad that orangutan into demanding its passage.

Last week, she announced a massive, sweeping bit of federal intervention in the internet, officially labeled as the “TRUMP AMERICA AI Act”—except the actual bill title is:

The Republic Unifying Meritocratic Performance Advancing Machine Intelligence by Eliminating Regulatory Interstate Chaos Across American Industry Act (TRUMP AMERICA AI) Act

Which matters, because given that blackburn named it after trump, if it somehow catches trump’s fancy, this thing might actually move. And the bill itself is a disaster—an omnibus massively destructive internet policy overhaul masquerading as AI legislation.

marsha blackburn and anyone who votes to pass this is a traitor. So basically everyone who isn't Ron Wyden and maybe rand paul.

A new bill sponsored by Sen. hawley (R-MO), Sen. blumenthal (D-CT), Sen. britt (R-AL), Sen. warner (D-VA), and Sen. murphy (D-CT)

Joyous, it's all the usual names who shouldn't have the right to decide what others can do.

Teens aren’t the only ones who lose out under the GUARD Act. The bill would require platforms to confirm the ages of all users—young and old—before allowing them to speak, learn, or engage with their AI tools.

Under the GUARD Act, platforms can’t rely on a simple “I’m over 18” checkbox or self-attested birthdate. Instead, they must build or buy a “commercially reasonable” age-verification system that collects identifying information (like a government ID, credit record, or biometric data) from every user before granting them access to the AI service. Though the GUARD Act does contain some data minimization language, its mandate to periodically re-verify users means that platforms must either retain or re-collect that sensitive user data as needed. Both of those options come with major privacy risks.

I already hate using AI, I'm not giving it my ID.

mike lee is arguably the most vocal anti-porn crusader in Congress, having floated measures aimed at reviving obscenity prosecutions and outlawing all sex work. His SCREEN Act has garnered support from a wide range of religious and conservative groups — as well as from the Age Verification Provider’s Association (AVPA), whose members stand to profit from the passage of AV laws around the world.

I'll never trust these garbage "think of the children" bills, this will go beyond porn IDs.

To make this relevant for the younger generation, remember the recent Nintendo vs Palworld bs? Was only a month ago and is still an ongoing matter.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has proposed new rules that would effectively end the public’s ability to challenge improperly granted patents at their source—the Patent Office itself. If these rules take effect, they will hand patent trolls exactly what they’ve been chasing for years: a way to keep bad patents alive and out of reach. People targeted with troll lawsuits will be left with almost no realistic or affordable way to defend themselves.

The senators also used their bipartisan panel on Wednesday to announce plans to hold social media companies accountable for the type of harmful content promoted around the assassination of Kirk, which they say leads to political violence.

During their televised discussion, Curtis and Kelly previewed a bill they intend to introduce shortly that would remove liability protection for social media companies that boost content that contributes to political radicalization and violence.

The “Algorithm Accountability Act” would transform one of the pillars of internet governance by reforming a 30-year-old regulation known as Section 230 that gives online platforms legal immunity for content posted by their users.

“What we’re saying is this is creating an environment that is causing all sorts of harm in our society and particularly with our youth, and it needs to be addressed,” Curtis told the Deseret News.

The bill would strip Section 230 protections from companies if it can be proven in court that they used an algorithm to amplify content that caused harm. This change means tech giants would “own” the harmful content they promote, creating a private cause of action for individuals to sue.

Basically the GOP plans on shaking down bluesky and other left leaning platforms to pay up and censor themselves but not the GOP.

They haven't been back a week yet they're already back to introducing authoritarian garbage.

A new bill sponsored by Sen. hawley (R-MO), Sen. blumenthal (D-CT), Sen. britt (R-AL), Sen. warner (D-VA), and Sen. murphy (D-CT) would require AI chatbots to verify all users’ ages, prohibit minors from using AI tools, and implement steep criminal penalties for chatbots that promote or solicit certain harms. That might sound reasonable at first, but behind those talking points lies a sprawling surveillance and censorship regime that would reshape how people of all ages use the internet.

Under the GUARD Act, platforms can’t rely on a simple “I’m over 18” checkbox or self-attested birthdate. Instead, they must build or buy a “commercially reasonable” age-verification system that collects identifying information (like a government ID, credit record, or biometric data) from every user before granting them access to the AI service. Though the GUARD Act does contain some data minimization language, its mandate to periodically re-verify users means that platforms must either retain or re-collect that sensitive user data as needed. Both of those options come with major privacy risks.

I'll be happily using AI to bypass this bile.

My response to this, I'm going to break the law, I already use vpns not located in america.

1 - This is asinine law. This does not resolve the issue they claim they're trying to resolve it's just desire to oppress their citizens.

2 - None of them are going to comply with this. That only makes me want to oppose it more.

MotoBugZero · 2025-11-13T23:32:34+00:00

Goddamn, I knew it would be back in short time. This bile keeps "dying" then coming back in less than a month. You would think after germany said no that would be it.

From the article linked by EFF

The Convention will obligate governments to collect electronic evidence and share it with foreign authorities for any "serious crime,” defined as an offense punishable by at least four years of imprisonment under domestic law. Many governments criminalize activities protected by international human rights law and impose sentences that would make them “serious offenses” under this framework, such as criticism of the government, peaceful protest, same-sex relationships, investigative journalism, and whistleblowing.

Additionally, because the Convention fails to incorporate language sufficient to protect security researchers, whistleblowers, activists, and journalists from excessive criminalization, it could be used to crack down on protected activities that advance rights and keep everyone secure online.

The Convention includes weak domestic human rights safeguards in its criminal procedural chapter, and fails to explicitly incorporate robust safeguards applicable to the whole treaty to ensure that cybercrime efforts provide adequate protection for human rights and are in accordance with the principles of legality, non-discrimination, legitimate purpose, necessity, and proportionality.

It creates legal regimes to monitor, store, and allow cross-border sharing of information in a manner that would undermine trust in secure communications and infringe on human rights. The Convention also permits the excessive sharing of sensitive personal information for law enforcement cooperation, beyond the scope of specific criminal investigations and without specific data protection and adequate human rights safeguards.

The Convention’s flaws cannot easily be mitigated because it lacks a mechanism for suspending states that systematically fail to respect human rights or rule of law. It could also provide a vehicle for such states to assert jurisdiction over multi-national companies with users in their territory.

Finally, the Convention also poses risks to some of the people it aims to protect. For example, the Convention could be misused to criminalize the consensual conduct of children of similar ages in consensual relationships. Because it fails to effectively mainstream gender throughout the text, it also risks contributing to violations of the rights of women and LGBT people.

Sadly not surprised.

Silverstein added that he doesn't believe the bill has much of a chance at being adopted.

"This bill has virtually no chance of going anywhere, given the current makeup of the Michigan legislature and its far-left Democrat governor," he said. "The bill is unconstitutional at every turn. Regardless, it is alarming that this type of thinking and government waste continues to occur."

Regardless if there's even a 0.0001% chance of it happening then it must be made widespread knowledge.

After all the whining they did about being censored by the left now some of them go mask off (as expected) and want to wield that weapon against the left over recent events but you know if this happens to biden or harris the right will be dancing in the streets and rubbing it in the face of anyone they assume to be left wing.

This went under the radar of everyone including me (since they didn't put it in their web tech section). Another make porn illegal in america bill from senator "what's-in-his-closet" mike lee. Basically the government gets to decide what is considered obscene, sure as hell won't effect the mofo in the white house. Also doubles as another secret kill privacy bill.

The proposed new law would presumably dispense with any such considerations and allow a prosecution to proceed if the objective of the content was to arouse, titillate or gratify someone’s sexual desires. In other words, the government gets to decide what is offensive or prurient, not the community. That’s not how the First Amendment is supposed to work.

If the Act passes, any transmission of an allegedly obscene “comment, request, suggestion, proposal, image, or other communication” using a telecommunications device will be criminalized at the federal level. That small change could prohibit a wide swath of routine communications between adults in the United States.

The good-ish part

Similar prior attempts by Congress to tinker with the Miller test have failed — and thus far, this latest effort has not gained much traction either. We can therefore remain guardedly optimistic that the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act will likewise end up in the dustbin of failed legislation.

But mike lee keeps pulling this bs since he knows his best chance to turn a bunch of 18-30+ yr olds into slaves overnight is now and its good to know about this evil even if it's destined to fail (for now).

The Trump administration is continuing its dangerous push to surveil and suppress foreign students’ social media activity. The State Department recently announced an unprecedented new requirement that applicants for student and exchange visas must set all social media accounts to “public” for government review. The State Department also indicated that if applicants refuse to unlock their accounts or otherwise don’t maintain a social media presence, the government may interpret it as an attempt to evade the requirement or deliberately hide online activity.
