Oppose the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act.

To: Rep. Patronis, Sen. Moody, Sen. Scott

From: A constituent in Pensacola, FL

May 13

I'm writing because I strongly oppose the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act. This bill is a bare-faced attempt to ban any expression and speech that interest groups don't like, all the while doing nothing to protect children. This bill is also set up in such a manner that it makes anyone opposing it's constitutionality look like they want children to be harmed. That is not the intention in opposing bills like this that promote overreach. The intention in opposing these bills is to prevent the spread of ineffective 'headline-friendly' bills that push traffic onto unregulated rogue sites and allow predators to flourish in now 'family-friendly' spaces. In the attempt to sanitize online adult spaces and create a 'family-friendly' internet, These bills create bigger hunting grounds for groomers and predators who frequent already existing child friendly spaces online. Adult material and fictional content is not the problem. Time spent attempting to pass these vague overreaching, censorship bills is time that we could spend passing effective legislation that stops predators from thriving in already existing child friendly spaces. Please oppose the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act.
