I just clicked the "Update" button in the Mac Codex app, and the app quit and deleted itself. I went to download it from the download page, and it downloads a copy of the ChatGTP app.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this OpenAI unifying things?

Last week, the House voted on the KIDS Act, a disjointed package of legislation that seeks to control Americans’ web browsing and private messaging. The package combines a revised version of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), with several other internet bills, study bills, reporting requirements, and new regulations. Different parts of the bill pressure online services to impose different age-gating schemes, using different standards. EFF opposed this bill, along with many of our members and supporters.

Take action

Tell Congress: no internet age-gates

The bill passed the House, 267-117. It now heads to the Senate, where its fate remains uncertain. But this fight is not over. Even if you took our earlier action to contact the House, we need you to reach out to your Senators today. 

The KIDS Act Will Lead to Mandatory Age Checks 

Many of the bills in the KIDS Act share the same premise: that children and teenagers should have different experiences online than adults. In practice, that requires websites and apps to determine who is under 18—and who isn’t. That’s where the problems with the KIDS Act start. 

EFF certainly supports giving all users better privacy and safety tools online. But those protections should not, and do not need to, come at the expense of privacy or free expression. Unfortunately, that’s exactly the tradeoff the KIDS Act makes.

There is no way to determine a user’s age online that is both privacy protective and accurate. Some age verification processes may rely on collecting government-issued ID, while others may use biometric scans. Others will use algorithms to guess a user’s age based on facial images or online behavior. But no matter the method, every system demands users hand over sensitive personal information that links their offline identity to their online activity. And then, once that valuable data is collected, it can be leaked, hacked, or misused. In fact, we’ve already seen several breaches of age verification providers.

The Bill Still Regulates Online Speech

The revised KOSA language within the KIDS Act still pressures companies to police lawful speech online. Platforms must “establish, implement, maintain, and enforce” policies that address content like gambling or the use of alcohol or cannabis. This encourages platforms to broadly restrict speech on these topics, which could include a teen seeking advice on a parent’s gambling problem or searching for substance abuse recovery resources. When platforms are required to create and enforce content moderation policies that regulators can sue them over, they will often err on the side of deleting speech. 

Protect Privacy For Everyone

There is a better way to protect young people online. Instead of encouraging a complicated system of age checks, more monitoring, and more restrictions on access to information, Congress could finally pass a strong, comprehensive privacy law that benefits all users. A great place to start would be to ban behavioral advertising that tracks us across the web—again, for users of all ages. 

We urge the Senate to oppose the KIDS Act and instead focus on a strong, bipartisan privacy package for all users. 

Take action

Tell the senate to reject the kids act

Let me tell you who I am first. I'm 16, a mad scientist. Started coding and AI at 12 — before ChatGPT existed. Built AI voice assistants in 2022 when nobody knew what AI was. Worked 10 hours a day at 12, building anonymously. I HAVE 1 THING: ASK ME TO BUILD ANYTHING — IMPOSSIBLE OR POSSIBLE — I WILL FIGURE IT OUT. AI, MATHS, SCIENCE, WHATEVER. THAT'S IT. At 15, I started selling AI automation and voice agents. Cold called, cold emailed, worked hundreds of hours for 4 straight months. Never got a single sale. Fine — selling wasn't my strength. Then I tried building real products — made an OpenClaw clone that ran on low-end laptops, built AI researchers. I'm not a salesman. I'm the guy who if you say "build Claude from scratch including model training" — I'll somehow do it. But "build something cool" — I freeze. Still, I tried the startup routes. Here's what I found: 1) INVESTORS & VCs: Completely opposite of what they sound. They claim to find talent and take risks. They don't. A16Z has 1-1.5% selection. They invest in ex-Google employees, ex-DeepMind CTOs, founders who already built million-dollar companies. What about the 14-year-old who didn't know what you wanted? What about that 25-year-old building AI agents before OpenClaw and Claude Code existed — you just weren't comfortable investing in talented unknowns. VCs lost their entire meaning trying to be "safe." 2) FOUNDER STUDIOS: 10,000 ultra-talented people apply. Maybe 1,000 are genuinely strong. 100 get selected. The other 9,900 showed they can build anything, anyhow — but you wanted people with 10 years at Google, ML degrees, millions in the bank. You wanted morons with credentials over builders with capability. 3) BUILD IN PUBLIC — COMPLETELY DEAD: Among 100% who try, 10% succeed, and 9% of those are AI slop YouTubers with zero real skill. Reddit, X, GitHub — only giants with existing traction get seen. A developer starting today gets 0-1 viewers and zero forks. Community is gone. 4) JOBS: Small AI startups want years of experience. Medium companies want 10 degrees for junior roles. Giant AI companies want 5 years experience + ML degree. And to GET that experience you go to small companies — who also want experience. THE LOOP HAS NO ENTRY POINT. Fellowships say "freshers welcome, any age" then in fine print: "ML degree, Rust/Python, 18+." Their brains are stuck in 2015 while their tools are from 2035. You know why 90% of AI startups fail? They're selling AI, not using it. They still want manual coders in interviews for Applied AI Engineer roles — while Anthropic spent billions building models that score top on coding benchmarks. And even the owners of those model companies still have 2005 mentality: degrees and manual coding. HOW TO ACTUALLY HIRE TALENT: Launch an impossible challenge. Automated evaluation — answer is right or wrong, no 10-day human review. Winners go straight to final interview. That's it. OpenAI's Parameter Golf was close. Nothing else comes close.

I'm tired. It's been years. Build in public — closed. Freelancing — trap. Investors — too cautious. Jobs — need experience and age. NO WAY LEFT.

But if somehow you read this far — THANK YOU, THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY IF I BECOME SUCCESSFUL, I WILL READ THIS POST AGAIN, IF I DIDN'T , STILL I WILL READ THIS POST AGAIN I DONT KNOW MAN, ITS TODAY IS 10 JULY 2026, I AM VANSH SHARMA NOW , I AM SIGNING OFF THANK YOU I HAVE STRGGLED A LOT I HOPE YOU GUYS SUCCEED I DONT KNOW IF ANYONE IS READING OR NOT
