It would be *much* more socially transformative to ban social media for over-65s

everything about the UK is terrifying. jailing activists against genocide for 40 years, banning young people from accessing social media websites and talking to one another, rampant ugly racism and poverty, forcing everyone to upload their ID to TALK to other people, it's scary!

BREAKING: The UK is drafting a law to scan every photo, video and message on every phone in the country. Tech CEOs who refuse to implement this could face up to 5 years in prison. The proposal would force companies to build device level scanners that inspect content before encryption. That means: • Every image scanned • Every message inspected • Every video analyzed All directly on your phone. Governments and companies pushing these safety” systems already have a terrible track record protecting user data. Last month, Europe’s new age verification app, promoted as a way to "keep children safe," was hacked in under 2 minutes. In another case, over 70,000 IDs and selfies linked to online verification systems were exposed in a major breach. Now the UK wants even deeper access directly inside your device. Once governments force surveillance tools into every phone, they can expand what gets monitored at any time.

"buzzword buzzword buzzword, now let us spy on you and your children"
🚨 BREAKING: Keir Starmer speaks ahead of announcing a social media ban for under-16s tomorrow morning "How we keep kids safe online is one of the biggest debates of our time. As a dad, I know every parent wants their child to grow up safe and happy. "This is a choice about whose side we’re on: families across the country, or a status quo that isn’t working. People rightly expect action, and this Government will always stand up for parents and put children first. "That’s why we will call time on a system that’s failing our kids and take bold action to give every child the best possible start in life"

Living in Britain really radicalises you to genuinely despise old people.

we're going to see unprecedented levels of teens playing on the street this summer, followed by unprecedented levels of curtain-twitchers posting photographs of teens on facebook going "WHOS KIDS R THESE. WHY ARE THEY OUTSIDE MY HOUSE. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE POLICE"
"Stare at a wall" is so apt bc there is literally nothing for kids to do here anymore. Parks are for young children, so teens get chased out, everything is super expensive so you can't go on a day out, and there's precious little nature left to explore. Thats all you can do.

the average british parent wants the government to make every parenting decision for them. their ideal world is shipping their kids off to be raised by the state & having the kids returned to them solely for the purpose of taking photos of them for instagram

He is all but explicitly admitting that the purpose of the law is not protecting kids.
STARMER says kids will get around his social media ban (as the vast majority do in Australia) but argues a law’s ineffectiveness should not prevent its introduction.
