please help
this is a breach of privacy
this is silencing teens who protest online
this is depriving teens of safe spaces
this is stupid
stop it
oh god. what did i miss
#australia social media ban
the australian kosa
once they go through with this we are going to be forced into giving our ids to social media apps to prove our age- which is a risk to safety
and ofc- the teens protesting online will be silenced and every teen will lose access to safe spaces and other info
theyre acting like this is for kids safety- exactly like how kosa was being advertised
it seems every country is trying to or has been implementing these stupid laws- why? oh they probs dont wanna let kids see non-christian content or anything against their country or any world news ofc! they dont want kids to be influenced by the “evil” online
kids as in teens
teens aren’t toddlers- stop treating them as such
IT'S OFFICIAL: THE WORLD'S STRICTEST SOCIAL MEDIA LAWS HAVE JUST BEEN APPROVED IN AUSTRALIA 29/11/2024
BUT
THEY HAVE 12 MONTHS TO FIGURE OUT HOW THIS IS GOING TO BE MANAGED! 12 MONTHS IS A YEAR! THIS COULD BE TIME TO TRY AND REVOKE THIS OR PROTEST AGAINST IT TO NOT LET IT BE IMPLEMENTED THEN- HOPEFULLY!
Just- spread the word. Please.
This is not for kids' online safety.
They are asking us to give our IDs- that's PERSONAL information that if taken by the wrong hands can have detrimental consequences.
DO NOT BE FOOLED
YouTube is not banned though. Good enough. (Still- an entire ban for under 16 year olds??? Seems excessive.)
I’m Australian and am going to be really damaged once the ban happens, if it does. My life is almost completely surrounded by social media, I’d probably kill myself without it, I have such great online friends and supportive influences I see online and my entire world would probably shatter if they do end up doing the ban. I would lose contact to all my favourite people and mental health services. The government wants “children” to have childhoods like theres but that’s really not possible, modern day parents are weary to let their kids outside freely and things just wouldn’t be the same.
