@chinwagnews Are we talking in human years or ibis years?

None of the politicians squawking in favour of this Age Verification issue are making sense.

Makes you wonder:
- What's it for? Really, apart from appealing to pearl-clutching technophobes who mutter "Won't somebody think of the children?"
- They're talking it up, but can it actually do any good?
- How will it be implemented?
- Can this whacky plan even _be_ implemented by every Tech company around the world to satisfy some knobs in Canberra?
- Why are the ALP and LNP perennially obsessed with censoring what we can do on the Internet, and is this another iteration of the "Great Firewall of Australia", "Filter", and "You Wouldn't Steal a Car" garbage previous governments have attempted?
- How many Cyber Star Rating stickers will I need to certify my Age Verification score?

The ALP and LNP may as well be talking in dog years because their proposed Age Verification legislation is a dog's breakfast.

Statement: World Day against Cyber Censorship

PeerTube

In my bio I explicitly state that I block threads.net.

The reasons are many but focused: privacy violations, and using the results of those violations for political gains for the organizations that pay for them. Organizations that by strange coincidence are run by billionaires that don't like democracy.

But there's also just plain censorship.

We created #ProtonVPN in 2017 to give people a lifeline against #cybercensorship through a #VPN.

But each year, more governments resort to internet shutdowns and #censorship to control public discourse and limit access to information.
