ASHTON KUTCHER is involved in some heavy stuff in real life. For instance, he co-founded Thorn, a non-profit tech group that fights to end the sexual exploitation of children.
And yesterday, he attended a Senate hearing called “Ending Modern Slavery: Building on Success”. He said, quote, “Technology can be used to enable slavery, but it can also be used to disable slavery. Thorn gives away their tools for free to help end trafficking.”
Senator JOHN MCCAIN thanked Ashton for coming, and said, quote, “You were better looking in the movies.” Ashton responded by blowing him a kiss.
Here is Ashton’s testimony….He’s incredibly passionate and well-informed on the subject, and at around 9:56, he calls McCain, quote, “A hero to this issue.”
