No. Fuck the KOSA, it’s the equivalent of burning down your house to get rid of a cockroach infestation.
Meta should be liable for their algorithm, no more, no less.
The only way to outlaw Meta’s dangerous and egregious behavior is to pass legislation
Or we could just exercise existing legislation? Like perjury?
All four sections carry a penalty of imprisonment for not more than five years, although § 1001 is punishable by imprisonment for not more than eight years when the offense involves terrorism or one of several federal sex offenses. The same five-year maximum penalty attends the separate crime of conspiracy to commit any of the four substantive offenses.
Even 1 year in jail should be a good enough incentive, if only he could not buy his way out.
This article starts out by observing that Zuckerberg committed enough crimes to be sent to prison under existing law and then argues that the only solution is more laws?

You had an argument until you brought up KOSA. That bill is absolutely brutal and had it passed, this administration would have yet another weapon to clamp down on free speech and terrorize citizens.
We’re living in post-truth times. Zuck is a large part of the reason why.
If the USA had a functioning Justice Department, lying to Congress should have put the Zuck behind bars.
I did more skimming than reading of the linked article because I don’t care that much abou tthe topic, but I just want to say: We need more of this journalism. THIS is what journalists should be doing so much more of. Calling out lies and specifically this is a great format for that.
Hold up, you’re telling me Zuckerberg isn’t a good person?
I am shocked that the guy who made a website to fuck college girls is a bad person.
Highly relevant video of what sort of culture Zuck metastasized in at Harvard
Is he considered a good lizard person?
page formatting is atrocious on dispatch
Dunno if that’ll be better, but I created it to see if it helped :)
