As widely predicted, on July 30, 2024, the Senate passed the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and the Children and Teens’ Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA 2.0) in a bipartisan vote of 91-3. Echoing criticism from both civil liberties groups and industry, Senators Rand Paul (R-KY), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Ron Wyden (D-OR) voted no, citing concerns that KOSA could be used to censor information and would impose sweeping responsibilities on platforms to prevent and mitigate unspecified harms. The bills now head to the House where their fate is uncertain.
