The Parents Over Platforms Act sounds like a child safety bill. But it could actually protect Big Tech instead of children. POPA offers vague “protections” while potentially shielding tech companies from real accountability when kids are harmed online. Parents deserve legislation that puts children first, not industry interests. We need meaningful reform, real transparency, and laws that hold platforms accountable when they facilitate exploitation and abuse.

A new study found that viewing po*******hy may impair the brain’s ability to make sound decisions, raising serious concerns about its impact on mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. Po*******hy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Its effects can shape how people think, process risk, and respond to the world around them. We must stop normalizing an industry that profits from harm and exploitation. Read more at the link below. 🧠👇

On 05/20/2026, the Oshkosh Police Department's Vice and Narcotics Unit along with Detectives and Patrol Officers, conducted an undercover human trafficking investigation in the City of Oshkosh.

During the course of the investigation, Officers arrested 9 adult males. These nine males ranged in age from 20-55 years old and were arrested for Pandering. These males were from Oshkosh, Kimberly, Weyauwega, Sturgeon Bay, Sheboygan, Neenah, Fond du Lac, and Texas.

Pandering/ Solicitation sits at a nexus of other crimes. It may be accompanied by, or related to, robberies, thefts, assaults, drug dealing/possession, and s*xual assault. The Oshkosh Police Department remains steadfast in our unwavering commitment to combating human trafficking and related crimes, and we continue to work diligently to investigate crimes of this nature.

For a variety of reasons, it can be very hard for Human Trafficking victims to get out of these situations. We partner with local non-profit organizations so that resources can be quickly provided to victims.

The Oshkosh Police Department strives to reduce the number of victims by doing proactive investigations and being vigilant in our efforts to combat Human Trafficking. Our door is always open to those seeking help, and we encourage anyone with information or concerns about human trafficking to come forward. Together, we can create a safer community and enhance the quality of life for everyone.

We need reform for 230!

The Supreme Court declined to hear the child exploitation case against X/Twitter, a deeply disappointing decision for survivors and advocates seeking accountability from Big Tech. The ruling tees up a renewed battle in Congress over Section 230 reform and leaves unresolved whether tech companies can continue claiming sweeping immunity even when child s*xual abuse material is distributed on their platforms. Congress must act to ensure Section 230 is not used to shield platforms from accountability in cases involving child exploitation. Read our full statement below.

Predators continue to use the Snapchat to target children for s*xtortion, grooming, and exploitation. Internal documents and whistleblower accounts suggest Snap repeatedly ignored or delayed important safety fixes to protect user engagement metrics. Features like disappearing messages, Quick Add, Snap Map, and My AI can make it easier for predators to contact, manipulate, and exploit minors, while making harmful interactions harder for parents to detect. Parents deserve to know the risks. Kids deserve safer online spaces. Learn more and take action at the link below. 👇
