WASHINGTON - Senator Lindsey Graham criticized tech companies on Wednesday for opposing a bipartisan bill aimed at curbing child sexual abuse material online and said he would consider a more punitive step if he is unable to get the legislation passed.
Graham, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, spoke at a hearing held to discuss the EARN It Act - a bill technology companies and civil liberties groups said was an attack on strong encryption critical to billions of people. Specifically, the companies would lose their immunity if they fail to follow “best practices” for detecting abusive images. Those practices would be determined by a new government commission led by Attorney General William Barr. Barr is a known foe of end-to-end encryption, a technology that prevents tech companies, police and hackers from reading messages unless they have access to the devices that sent or received them.
EARN IT wouldn't do one thing to help kids. It WOULD trample on freedom of speech and association, negate our 4th amendment rights, make tech companies subordinate to a panel of amateurs, AND make it prohibitively expensive for anyone to ever enter the online business space.
He's one sick puppy, but then again maybe the tech companies are, too. There are no good guys here.
don't threaten
we have to remember. there is no holistic approach available. we need 144 people to study the human body, each person focuses on particular part. this dick thinks he is somehow protecting children. but there must be another 1000 like him who are protecting all the other people
Just how does he want to abuse them?
Please, watch the video. Why new diseases keep appearing in China.
