TIL that to combine KOSA with COPPA 2.0 and another act, the US Senate amended a random paper-shuffling act to replace it with the new version of KOSA. - eviltoast

As a result, bill trackers report the new KOSA title (“KOSPA”) but use the old summary on the paper-shuffling bill. (e.g. see https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/2073)

(This is not about the merits of KOSA; this is about the merits of taking a young kid (bill)'s dreams and aspirations, shutting it in the closet grinder, and replacing poor old billy with his cousin−n-times−removed.)

What’s more infuriating is that no major news outlets report that KOSA was passed as KOSPA.
