Why do I screenshot instead of retweet? Because it lets me hide and block scams in the thread. For some reason, other accounts just let the scams thrive...
If social media (seeing what your friends post) is bad for for the young, its probably bad for the aged too, but the aged can vote to violate the rights of the young and not vice a versa.
Yeah, they probably give you alternate ways to beg them to let you communicate with your friends, other than facial scans. But maybe you won't like those either.
Anonymity was the STANDARD PRACTICE that allowed the United States to exist! Here are the Founding Fathers of the United States that hid their name to publish what the British would have charged them with treason for. Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, James Madison, Samuel Adams, John Adams, Thomas Paine...
Privacy is normal.
Everyone in the UK is being banned from social media unless they DOX themselves and beg for access. You shall not browse anonymously. The vast majority of the people harmed by this are those over 16, for they will spend all their time complying their rights away.
How ironic is it that the under 16's whos freedom of association with each other is being violated wouldn't even be able to see this public press release the UK primer minister released on, you guessed it, social media...
The government says it will go "further than a blanket ban on social media" by blocking "harmful functions such as livestreaming and stranger communication with children for under-16s".
"These restrictions – which together with the ban go further than any other country – will apply to a wider range of online services, including on gaming sites," it says.
"Restrictions on these functionalities will also be on by default for under 16 and 17-year-olds to prevent a cliff-edge at 16. The government will also be looking in more detail at overnight curfews and breaks in infinite scrolling for under-18-year-olds and will set out more detail in July."
"This would capture user-to-user platforms, whose purpose is to enable social interaction and which allow users to post material, alongside algorithms. The ban will therefore include platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X."
"We have agency", Starmer said, adding that the government "can" and "will" change things.
"Yes it's hard" to legislate for, regulate and enforce but that's why the government "listened to people" and learned from countries like Australia, he says, where a similar ban has already been introduced.
"We're not just bringing forward a ban" but "going further" with "world-leading action" on gaming services and live streaming platforms, Starmer said.
https://t.co/AhLrK4RZhc tech can relieve some of this suck using zk proofs, but man, I don't think people understand what no internet for you without Doxing yourself on every single website looks like. You guys all know the data you give is going to be stolen by hackers on some portion of the regulated sites right?
