#Biodiversity is not something distant or abstract. It is a part of us, and we are a part of it. It provides the food we eat, the air we breathe, the #climate that sustains us, and the medicines we rely on every day.

An interesting discussion of the issues around various #ageverification laws that are popping up in various places around the world on the "Techlore" podcast with Jithendra Palepu, a legal expert from the #FSFE (Free Software Foundation in Europe).

Lately relevant in #Canada with the province of #Manitoba announcing age verification for social media & AI chatbots.

As much as #Manitoba's Wab Kinew is the envy of the country, he is wrong on his desire for #socialMedia #surveillance of youth. And he is wrong to even suggest that it is possible. The real problem is the lack of regulation of #BigTech. https://www.michaelgeist.ca/2026/04/the-illusion-of-protection-why-canadas-growing-push-to-ban-social-media-for-kids-wont-work/

let me explain this as if with crayons and popsicle sticks: if your concern is that harm is being done, target the people doing the harm. do not target the people being harmed. i dont know how i can explain it any more simply and if you dont understand or object to this or want to mansplain around it, well, i guess you should get your USian immigration papers ready, theyre all about that shit, regulating and punishing and restricting the people to whom the harm is being done

#MBPoli #Manitoba

where are the dummies who wanted to criminalize encryption like it was a ferocious danger? why dont you want to regulate social algorithms? not one person has suggested licensing requiring transparency and open sourcing of social algorithms really?

is it that those same kinds of people are now making big money and would rather children be treated as second class beings without needs or agency? cool cool cool

#MBPoli #Manitoba

yes, lets take a generation with a traumatic pandemic formative experience where they could ONLY socialize and get support online and specifically take away the tools they have instead of making those platforms responsible for themselves in any way shape or form

#MBPoli #Manitoba

i actually dont have words for how disappointed i am in our provincial government right now. instead of increasing support or regulating the ones doing harm, theyre choosing to isolate and restrict children as if theyre not people. this is braindead. driving a specifically vulnerable population to the margins and into the dark while measuring your success only in number of accounts deactivated is like alex jones level stupid.

While Wab Kinew's move to ban algorithmic pricing was a good one, this move is an extremely BAD one. It's impossible to implement privacy respecting age verification as @pluralistic describes here.

Banning social media for minors isn't to minimize risk to minors, it's to maximize votes for politicians.

(The #Keewatin #TribalCouncil declared a regional #StateOfEmergency on Thursday afternoon to draw attention to the "dire" situations on the northern #Manitoba communities & to urge #immediate #GovernmentAction .
The tribal council is made up of 11 communities, including #Shamattawa FirstNation & GodsLakeFirstNation - which have already declared states of emergency in the last six months.)

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 19

It's appropriate that this #MarineLifeMonday our journey #north reaches the shores of #Hudson'sBay at #Churchill, #Manitoba 🇨🇦. It's here that the largest complete #trilobite #fossil ever found was uncovered from #Ordovician rocks. If you want to see the more than two foot long Isotelus rex in person, head to #Winnipeg's #ManitobaMuseum, where it's displayed in all its splendor.
