Attention needed: Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA, H.R. 1865) - are we being played? (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Are_we_shill

The only public commentary I have seen on this is from the EFF and they are opposed to this bill. Is the bill really what it appears to be? Recall the (failed) Net Neutrality campaign which attempted to use reverse psychology on Truth researchers. It would have been a disaster for us and a boon to social media censorship. This H.R. 1865 bill needs eyeballs on, asap!

From EFF:

The House of Representatives is about to vote on a bill that would force online platforms to censor their users. The Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA, H.R. 1865) might sound noble, but it would do nothing to stop sex traffickers. What it would do is force online platforms to police their users’ speech more forcefully than ever before, silencing legitimate voices in the process.

Back in December, we said that while FOSTA was a very dangerous bill, its impact on online spaces would not be as broad as the Senate bill, the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA, S. 1693). That’s about to change.

The House Rules Committee is about to approve a new version of FOSTA [.pdf] that incorporates most of the dangerous components of SESTA. This new Frankenstein’s Monster of a bill would be a disaster for Internet intermediaries, marginalized communities, and even trafficking victims themselves.

If you don’t want Congress to undermine the online communities we all rely on, please take a moment to call your representative and urge them to oppose FOSTA.

Understand the bill has a long way to go before it even comes close to becoming law.

We should try to read through it and establish a cliff notes. It would be said if we fail to get behind something that we have been calling out for, worse still... if we get behind it and it shuts us down. Let’s be informed, and trust God to open the right doors.

This is very important info. Like him or not, the cabal knows Trump was elected because of the alternative media. CALL CALL CALL! Keep Aaron Swartz' legacy alive: "Along with developing an early version of rich site summary, or RSS, technology, Swartz is credited with co-founding the popular Reddit website that allows users to vote for their favorite news stories of the day.

Increasingly active in efforts to make information more readily available on the Internet, he also founded Demand Progress, a lobbying group that advocates for civil liberties and government reform.

In that role, Swartz led a successful effort to stymie the Stop Online Piracy Act, a bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2011, which sought to restrict access to websites that illegally shared copyrighted property. The bill was eventually withdrawn after widespread protests.

"He refined advocacy for the progressive and open-information movement," said David Moon, program director for Demand Progress. "He was ultimately pretty brilliant at that."" http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-01-13/news/chi-aaron-swartz-dead_1_reddit-computer-network-websites

Why did we not hear of this sooner? How will 8chan deal with the U.S. gutting CDA section 230 protections? /bin/sh 02/25/18 (Sun) 00:24:36 No.72420>>72497 >>72530 >>72570 >>72571 >>72592 >>72606 >>72610 >>72674 >>72682>>72691 >>72733 >>72760 >>72799 [Watch Thread][Show All Posts] https://archive.is/CSyhD

This new Frankenstein’s Monster of a bill would be a disaster for Internet intermediaries, marginalized communities, and even trafficking victims themselves. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1865 The bill changes section 230 of the CDA, the law that protects website owners from liability for what their users post, to carve out an exception for instances of human trafficking. Site owners can be held liable and subject to a criminal fine or imprisonment for not more than 20 years. WHAT THIS MEANS IN PRACTICE IS THAT ALL IT WOULD TAKE FOR A WEBSITE TO BE SHUT DOWN AND ITS OWNER ARRESTED IS A FALSE FLAG OPERATION OF SPOOKS ENGAGING IN HUMAN TRAFFICKING. ALL U.S. SITES WOULD BECOME FORCED TO IMPOSE EXTREMELY HEAVY-HANDED MODERATION AND CENSORSHIP OR SHUT DOWN ENTIRELY, 8CHAN INCLUDED. THIS BILL HAS STRONG BIPARTISAN SUPPORT AND WILL LIKELY PASS UNLESS HEAVY RESISTANCE CAN BE ORGANIZED QUICKLY AND ON A LARGE SCALE. Voting on the House Floor is scheduled for THIS TUESDAY. Start spreading this information on as many websites as you can before it's too late. If you know anyone with a large audience try and get them to spread the word. If this bill becomes law then it's GAME OVER for free speech on the internet.

Just notified a bunch of activists. They will not like this. They are Progressives and hate anyone clamping down on the internet. Thanks for the information. Others please pass this on.

I don't know if this is a trick because I have not looked into it. We should look into it and see if we can figure it out. Instead of playing with legislation all the time they could, you know, enforce the laws we have, and actually start arresting child traffickers in mass.

They could also stop creating them by cleaning out the military and arresting these people. They know what these people are doing. They know.
