Naprawdę rozbraja mnie to wieczne rozróżnienie na bezpieczne i niebezpieczne social media, jakby problemem była sama aplikacja, a nie kompletny brak edukacji cyfrowej.

Dzieci i rodzice powinni umieć rozumieć mechanizmy internetu, algorytmów i manipulacji. bez tego żadne zakazy ani listy "dobrych” platform niczego nie załatwią. Reuters właśnie opisuje kolejny taki pomysł.

United Airlines Flight 93 reportedly downed or crashed over Pennsylvania, the false narrative (false memory or #massformationpsychosis war #propaganda)

United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania during the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
The following is the detailed information
Background and course of the core event
On September 11, 2001, 19 terrorists from al-Qaeda hijacked four domestic civil airliners in the United States. Among them, United Airlines Flight 93 was the last one to take off.
The basic itinerary: This flight was originally scheduled to fly from Newark International Airport in New Jersey to San Francisco International Airport. After being delayed, it took off at 8:42 a.m. There were a total of 37 passengers and 7 crew members on board, including 4 hijackers.
Hijacking and Resistance: About 46 minutes after takeoff, the hijackers took control of the plane and steered it towards Washington D.C. The target was most likely the United States Capitol or the White House. Passengers and crew members on board learned about the attack on the World Trade Center through their mobile phones. After identifying the fatal target on the plane's course, they collectively decided to launch a resistance to regain control of the aircraft.
Crash result: During the resistance, the plane crashed into a rural field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10:03 a.m. local time. All 44 people on board were killed. At that time, the plane had only 18 minutes left to fly to Washington D.C. It was also the only one among the four hijacked planes that did not reach the intended target of the terrorists' attack.

Watched #MollyVsTheMachines at a screening yesterday. I found it tragic that a lot of the audience and the director expressed support for a #SocialMediaBan for children (and consequently, for #ageverification). Let's be clear - young people are not harmed by social media itself. They're harmed by companies whose profits rely on the commodification of users.

The UK Government sees failure as a success....

SOCIAL MEDIA: ‘Swansea backs a ban’ says MP Torsten Bell as survey finds strong local support for child age limits

A Swansea MP says there is strong local support for restricting children’s use of social media, as a UK Government consultation on the issue draws to a close.

Torsten Bell, the MP for Swansea West, said he had found an “overwhelming consensus for action” among constituents after months of meetings, correspondence and an online survey.

He said the issue had generated more letters to his office than any other in 2026.

Of those who responded to his survey, 80% backed some degree of age restriction on social media use. Two-thirds of respondents were parents and a fifth were teachers, with more than 130 people taking part in the online survey.

The findings cap a campaign that has run for months. Bell first called an “emergency” public meeting back in April, saying the topic was already topping his postbag.

That meeting, held at Swansea’s Guildhall last month, drew a packed room of parents, teachers and residents, who heard from an expert panel and shared their own experiences.

At that meeting, residents raised concerns about the time children spend on screens and the impact on their mental wellbeing — though some also questioned whether age restrictions could realistically be enforced.

Mr Bell said: “It’s been fantastic to see so much engagement from parents and community members across Swansea West.”

“I’d like to thank everyone who wrote to me, turned up to the meeting at the Guildhall, or took the survey on my website for their thoughtful and considered contribution to this debate. Swansea’s voice has been heard loud and clear, and Swansea backs a ban.”

He added: “I will make sure that voice is heard as the consultation ends and the time for action is here, because nothing is more important than the safety and future of our children.”

The UK Government consultation, which includes proposals to restrict social media use for under-16s, opened earlier this year, when Llanelli MP Dame Nia Griffith also urged parents and children across the area to take part.

The debate has been building across the region for months. Earlier this year, figures released to mark Safer Internet Day suggested half of parents had never spoken to their children about harmful online content, even as most 11-year-olds owned a smartphone.

The pressures are already being felt in local schools. In March, a school warned pupils they could face expulsion over abusive TikTok posts that caused “significant distress.”

The question of how to protect children online has also reached the Welsh Government, which recently ruled out a Wales-wide ban on mobile phones in schools, leaving the decision to individual schools.

With the consultation now closing, attention turns to how far the UK Government will go in regulating children’s access to social media — and whether the strength of feeling Mr Bell describes in Swansea is matched across the country.
