Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like “what is Congress” with a push notification is not the best plan

    And this isn’t even about social media. This bill is to prevent the external data collection and manipulation of a group of people by an external to the US organization. If this was about with of those in general, then I’d be all about it. We need better data protections here in the US and we need social media platforms to be held accountable on that charge, but this isn’t that bill. This doesn’t affect Meta, or X or any other domestic site which are just as bad at both manipulation and data gathering/selling.
