  • Summary

  • Recent child online safety bills have ignited a firestorm of controversy. These emotionally charged proposals aim to shield children from online harm, but they've raised serious concerns about potential infringement of First Amendment rights. The current legislative landscape remains uncertain, with various bills at different stages across states and at the federal level.

    How do we balance the urgent need to protect children with our fundamental rights to free speech? What are the practical implications of proposed age-gating measures? And where do we draw the line between parental responsibility and government intervention?

    To discuss these challenges and concerns surrounding age-gating on the internet, we're joined by Ari Cohn. Ari serves as Free Speech Counsel at TechFreedom. Prior to this role, he was the director of the Individual Rights Defense Program at the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education and served as an attorney with the United States Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights.

    Join us as we explore age gating, parents' roles in keeping their kids safe, and the current state of child online safety legislation.
