This is about protecting kids as much as Trump was going to clean the "swamp" or release the Epstein files. I have read the bill, and it doesn't matter what it says right now because what you read is not going to be what gets signed into law. By the time it gets on the books it will be a butchered piece of shit that will do the opposite of what it claims it will do now.
As for your claim that we should all just be happy with government mandated surveillance, well you can just go tell your 3 letter agency overlords that I am not interested. My options to avoid mass surveillance and having my every word and move tracked may be diminishing at an alarming rate, but I am not going to accelerate it's deterioration just because you are a Steve Job fuckboy who puts down your high score in flappy birds under "computer experience" on your resume.
I never made that claim. What the hell are you talking about?! Your whole comment is just the rambles of a mad man
