Before the online safety consultation even ended, the UK government indicated that new restrictions are on the way.
Pushing for a social media ban ignores its inherent fault – it doesn't work.
ORG's @JamesBaker explains how people will find workarounds and what's a better way to address online harms.

@lordbowlich @engideer @drwho I don't think so.
On March 12, Lennart Poettering argued why adding this to systemd is fine:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40954#issuecomment-4045027951
And two other systemd maintainers approved adding it to systemd before it got merged on March 18.
The pull request has 151 comments as of now, so this was intensely discussed.
And on April 1, merely fourteen days after merging the PR, a fourth systemd maintainer wants to tell us this *clearly* doesn't belong into systemd but into the kernel, and they shouldn't have merged it, when two weeks prior three of his peers approved it.
Remember, none of the two bills they referenced had even been finalized at that point. The Colorado bill was finalized only in May, and the California bill still isn't final.
Talk about getting a foot into the door, to first implement this in systemd and then basically immediately try to get this into the kernel. Before the damned bill was even finalized … and after a System76 employee informed them on March 10, "Hey, wait a minute, don't implement this yet, Linux might be exempted."
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40954#issuecomment-4032221990
I'm told this one "this should be in the kernel, not in systemd" statement was an April fool's joke. I'm not enough of a Linux expert to know if this is even possible to implement in the kernel or if this is an extremely obvious joke to anyone who isn't a complete kernel newbie (I'm a macOS user who wants to leave Apple behind after Tim Cook's brown-nosing of Trump's ass, so I'm not intimately familiar with all the Linux intricacies.) Knowing the genocide-complicit corporations all these people work for, I assumed the worst. ("compress the kill cycle" Red Hat, "Holocaust" IBM, "genocide of the Palestinians" Microsoft) To me it isn't obviously a joke. And it's a highly sensitive topic you don't make jokes about.
Either way, the Colorado bill wasn't finalized before *May*, and the California bill still isn't finalized. They really are *stumbling* over themselves to implement this stepstone for fascist legislation.

So WSocial wants your data, claiming that a european but still data harvesting and advertisement funded for profit social media company would somehow "save democracy". 🏛
As if being european would somehow make this toxic business model any better.

California and Colorado are taking the first steps towards sanity in their age verification laws. Yet, it's still a long way to repeal them.

Today they're completing their first Government consultation.
They grow up so quick.

How Often Do Consumers Balk at Doing Online Age Authentication? | Technology & Marketing Law Blog
#ageVerification #censorship #onlineSafety #onlineSafetyAct #surveillanceIn search engine parlance, the “bounce” rate is the percent of searchers who click on a search results link and then immediately hit the back button … I’m going to analogize bounce rates to the rate that consumers fail to overcome age authentication walls, which I’ll call the “balk rate.” …
