I think it's pretty safe to say that the technical & operational impossibility of #PedoClippy the magic nudity detector that #KierStarmer wants embedded in every extant camera & in every online device, is going to seriously damage if not sink his premiership. #Clippy
@alecmuffett last time around this was stymied by things like NHS advisory sites and legit sex education content - actually, i went to see the musical hair in 1968 (my 11th birthday) which includes full cast naked scene. i don't think that turned me into the depraved loon I am today (no, that was margaret thatcher did that)...
@tforcworc @alecmuffett I'm sure the resurgent far right is fully up for making sex education inaccessible, sadly :(

@alecmuffett why do we allow #TechIlliterates to regulate #tech?

- We don't let randos decide upon patients' care in a hospital either…

@alecmuffett
Starmer passes fascist spy legislation and then reform run with it for all it's got. Wise governments only pass legislation that their enemy opposition can't exploit if in power.
@NMBA @alecmuffett It's a very long time since a British government could have been described as wise.
@alecmuffett supposedly – *supposedly* – the tech already exists. earlier today the Guardian article mentioned a company called https://safetonet.com/; *supposely* they have a phone "for children" that does this. the current article doesn't mention them.
