  • Australia’s teen social media ban is a flop. But there’s no joy in ‘I told you so’

  • Lol almost like education is the solution. Great work!

    Efforts like this teach kids the law is the problem and teaches them to learn how to circumvent it, and in the mean time it also acts as a tracking tool for everyone else in Australia.

    Its problems are numerous, benefits inconsequential and easily replicated through other means, and in your own words the only current solution is to teach kids there's a problem.

  • What's your solution then? Great Chinese internet filter and banning VPNs?

  • Restriction is fine if it's a workable solution, but this one is not and anyone with half a brain could see that from its very first announcement.

  • We're talking about Australian legislation not social media itself. The problem is real, the legislation is ineffective and poorly implemented. Calling the legislation evil is a stretch. Modern social media is most certainly evil.

  • I don't agree that the legislators left the spirit of cooperation or respect for consent out because they are evil, I think they left them out because they are ignorant. I think they are inexperienced with both technology and social media and have failed to appropriately engage people that might have helped them come up with a functional solution rather than an ineffective brute force.

    I do however agree with everything else you've said above.

  • No but you can educate their support networks and build other systems to help them work through their addiction.

  • The current solution just cuts those at risk kids off from all modern support networks.

  • Just having parental controls exist isn't an effective solution. Well implemented education is required to ensure it is used effectively.

  • There is a problem with social media addiction but the solution isn't restricting teens from it. The solution, as with most things, is education. Educating the kids, educating their parents and making sure they both have the tools available to them to make smart decisions.

  • I don't think they are evil. A bunch of people with good intentions who didn't understand the problem are trying to solve it with a gut feeling rather than analysis and evidence. It's really disappoi ting that they would waste so much of our time and money like this.

  • Look hes just an old man trying his damnedest while he can to make sure his kids and friends can make a few extra bucks. If anyone's mad about it its just because they didn't think of it first. If you think about it hes actually some kind of hero. There's definitely no real repercussions to his actions and if anyone tries to claw the money back later they are totally not going to get all of it or put his kids and friends in jail for their crimes.

  • Won't this likely affect republican voters at least as much as it affects people who are not republican voters?

    Or are they going to combine this with voter lists/Palantir to make it easy for known republican voters and harder for non-republicans?
