Recently I was in a group with grannies (70+). One of them had brought her granddaughter (about 6) along, who got obviously bored. She kept her entertained with "funny" #TikTok videos. The girl wanted to explore our #books: 'Don't touch!'
And all these grandmothers, their eyes sparkling, could rattle off the names of the TikTok influencers who ‘keep children aged two and above entertained’. And calm. (Their parents, too!)

Australia is settling into age-restricted social media. Canada is mulling whether to join in
Nearly four months into Australia's landmark social media ban for users under 16, parent proponents laud it as a valiant first step towards a safer online experience for youth. Yet as other countries weigh introducing their own social age minimum, some continue to question bans as a solution.

Sharing for awareness. The government is building the walls to the cage, and we should be upset.
I wish all companies and dev teams would turn their back on the state. Servers that just won't query. I am not optimistic. Video does better to explain without rage baiting.

Is Age Verification a Trap?

Platforms are caught in a dilemma: enforce age restrictions or protect user privacy. How are they navigating this tricky terrain?

"I'll repeat my promise to you all: we will fight every state attempt to impose mandatory age verification and deanonymization on our users as hard as we possibly can, and we will keep actions like this to the clear cases where there's no doubt that we have to take action in order to prevent liability. " #Dreamwidth continuing to fight the good fight. ✊🏻
