Really interesting they push for that the day of the report of investigation regarding rape gang and how the gouvernement didn't protect children en even enable harm toward them. Trully disgusting. Really hope they get prosecuted by the next gouvernement
I fully support the battle against attention-consuming energy vampires but I'm afraid this is probably not going to work practically.
Any government that oversteps so much that it thinks its role is as the parent, must be abolished.
Let them eat guns and cigarettes.
Why stop at 16
Get rid of all of it
We never needed it anyway
I agree, but on the ageism point. The thing that needs to be done is regulation so that manipulative design is reduced. Its the corporations that are the problem. Bans only target the victims the most.
Consequences for rich people? Not blaming their victims?!? Who the fuck do you think you are, anyway??
How do you get an entire population of adults to voluntarily scan their faces and submit them to Palantir?
By banning them from the Internet
Social media needs to go away, fully. Not just for kids.
It should become social again. No faking and manipulation at the penalty of criminal punishment.
It was great when it was a small pod of your close friends sharing stuff together.
But now it's just an algorithm that shows you what you want to see by people pushing products and flat out lying. It's done. It needs to go away.
RIP Minecraft live lol
Social media would become a ghost town.
No it wouldnt. It'd be a .001% reduction in users.
If you want social media to become a ghost town, ban bots/AI
Apparently they count Youtube as social media
No more SML for British kids.
It's insane that they'll say it's designed to be addictive, and then just let the company keep doing that. Like maybe go after the entity producing the addictive substance directly then?
