The KIDS Act just passed the House and it's on to the Senate now. Assuming this passes, it'll mark the end of online free speech and device ownership in the US.

Contact your Senators about it while you still can, I just got through writing both of mine.

One way they could do that is by web DRM blocking 'unapproved' OSes from loading stuff. Google reCAPTCHA is already laying the foundation for this.

    I asked that a long time ago somewhere

    but when testing with creepjs.org it always detected my OS as linux, no matter what browser or extensions I use or which useragent I set. But when I tried tor browser with js enabled it detected windows.

    Does anybody know how tor does that and if so, how can it be applied to firefox or librewolf or whatever (either config or patch) ?
