Defend free speech. Fight surveillance. Support innovation.

Congress is pushing a dangerous internet censorship bill, the TAKE IT DOWN Act (S. 146/H.R.633), and we need your help to stop it. While this bill claims to fight the spread of non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII), it is deeply flawed and will lead to suppression of legal content, weaken encryption, and undermine free speech online.

The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) would censor the internet and would make government officials the arbiters of what young people can see online. It will likely lead to age verification, handing more power, and private data, to third-party identity verification companies like Clear or ID.me.

The government should not have the power to decide what topics are "safe" online for young people, and to force services to remove and block access to anything that might be considered unsafe for children. This isn’t safety—it’s censorship.

The Senate is considering a bill that would help save some of the worst patents and empower patent trolls.

The PREVAIL Act, S. 2220, would sharply limit the public’s right to challenge patents that never should have been granted in the first place.

UPDATE: On Nov. 21, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 11-10 in favor of PREVAIL. We will continue to oppose this misguided bill. Help us by telling your members of Congress to oppose it when it comes up for another vote.
