Australia to Enforce Mandatory Social Media Age Checks | Australian e-Safety Commissioner bans plotline of Bluey episode

Bluey is a phenomenon, especially if you are a parent. It’s the finest export from Australia since Kylie Minogue & Steve Irwin.

Series 2 Episode 24 “Faceytalk” is all about young kids in an extended family sharing silly times together over social media. Admittedly it does end in one of the kids overexcitedly drowning a phone in a swimming pool, but it’s comedy because it’s recognition, and it has a lesson.

And I’m finding it quietly ridiculous that the Australians are essentially banning it from ever happening:

Go click. Apparently ostensible safety is more important that children are prevented from having fun:

“A safety law that reads like a blueprint for a surveillance state.”

@fixatedpersonsunit
This is being done by the #APS Australian Public Service - whose ranks included the enablers & rubber-stampers of +10 years of abuse and neglect of #Australia's frail and vulnerable aged care residents, the "So sad. Too bad." amoral thugs who poured the acid of #RoboDebt onto +400,000 innocent heads, and Commissioners who chose not to stand in the way of illegal mistreatment & unlawful barbarity.

I have no confidence in #eSafetyCommissioner #JulieInmanGrant.
