I don't think blocked nudes is really going to sort the toxic online culture that is harming kids, but it looks like something is being done so that's why Starmer is doing it.

Is this Adults blackmailing kids or kids blackmailing kids?

When will the government and its media fluffers be honest and accept that just because something is possible doesn’t mean it’s cost-free? You can easily prevent children accessing dodgy content by simply outlawing internet access. That doesn’t mean it’s a sensible solution. There’s a multitude of edge cases, loopholes and tradeoffs in any technical solution. Some of us make a living trying to explain that to non-techies but politicians want to believe you can have it all with no downsides. #ukpolitics #onlinesafety #starmer #osa #OnlineSafetyAct
