"Senate Gains Momentum in Passing Kids Online Safety Act Amid Growing Support"

TL;DR Summary
Senator Richard Blumenthal released an updated version of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and claims that the bill addresses concerns, but critics argue that it still poses significant problems. The bill's duty of care section has been revised, shifting enforcement power from State Attorneys General to the FTC, but concerns remain about potential abuse of this power. Critics argue that the bill's provisions could lead to increased censorship and privacy risks for minors, and question its effectiveness in protecting children online.
