  5. EU Accuses Meta of Undermining Digital Law: Under-13s Gain Unchecked Access to Facebook and Instagram

    The EU Commission says Meta's Facebook and Instagram let children under 13 use their services. This breaks the Digital Services Act. Meta must explain why.

  6. The European Commission found that Meta's platforms, Facebook and Instagram, are not stopping children under 13 from signing up. This is a breach of the EU's Digital Services Act.

    Did some readings on the best ways to migrate around the Internet in regards to child safety, and these are something to think about. Something has to be done with how governments approach privacy and learn from security breaches.

  8. The deaths of three minor sisters in Ghaziabad have triggered an investigation into the possible role of an online task-based “love game.” Experts warn such immersive platforms can lead to addiction, especially among children, as the Economic Survey flags rising digital dependency. english.mathrubhumi.com/multim #Ghaziabad #OnlineGameAddiction #DigitalAddiction #ChildSafetyOnline

  12. After Australia moved to block under-16s from holding social media accounts, the Madras High Court has made a sharp observation in a child-safety PIL—urging the Centre to consider an Australia-like law and detailing what must be done until then. english.mathrubhumi.com/news/i #MadrasHighCourt #SocialMedia #ChildSafetyOnline #Australia

  13. Accessing adult content in Ohio gets harder next month. The law goes further than just porn, but anything the state (currently run by a Republican supermajority) deems  "obscene or harmful to juveniles" 17 years old and younger.

    Verification would be done by submitting a photo of your state ID or by entering your personal information into a third-party system that will then run your details through other online or government databases — it could also use facial recognition technology, capturing photos of users.

    Websites would be penalized, owners subjected to jail, if they don’t comply. Attorney General said he would shut websites down that had any pornography or anything "obscene or harmful to juveniles" on it and didn't have a system that complied with the new law.

    The law was passed and signed into law during the 2025 budget process a few months ago

    Pornhub is expected to exit the state and block known Ohio users. #Ohio #USPol #ChildSafetyOnline

    Look what I've found on Mastodon !
    Complete lack of moderation !

  15. In other hilarity of the day, I got an announcement from #Roblox that I should check out all their fancy new parental controls. I’m sorry. My child hasn’t used their account in years! Why? I got tired of them sidestepping parental controls and creating an adult account and getting with his knows who.

    Done. Gone. Never NEVER going back. Untrusted platforms are untrustworthy. Go find yourselves new victims.
