I've read this article multiple times, but I still don't understand the core legal claim.
What's the case for the First Amendment not allowing KOSA?
What makes KOSA different from constitutional obscenity/indecency laws?
Thanks for helping me understand.

- voakbasda 3y agoWho said the obscenity/indecency laws are constitutional? I sure as hell don’t think they are. These sorts of laws spit in the face of the First Amendment and deserve to be struck down.
