discussion YouTube to be included in Australia's teen social media ban

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Australia?

I'm ok with kids not having access to sites to make the internet stupid. My problem is in how they handle it, usually by assuming everyone's a minor unless they provide privacy-breaking information. Fuck that!

Youtube kids for the last 8? years now already fixed this

Same with the last 20 years of parential controls and being a fucking parent.

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Australia?

The people with power like another place that worships billionaires while there eating dollar store food under a overpass.

Nobody can ever just do anything good they have to add a buncha bullshit to it and ruin everything

Seems everything in Australia is out to get you, even the government xD

Hell, they'll send someone to prison over a cartoon of Bart and Lisa Simpson fucking (they sell t shirts with that here.)

I was watching recently some vids of the gold mines down there some massive ones but there is toilet security jobs apparently you can can sit on the can and get a poison bite so they got people to make sure there safe to use.

Just ban everything at this point.

Its got nothing to do with protecting kids. Its all about forcing people to accept using real ID. You have to use some kind of acceptable identification to prove you are over 16 to create a you tube account. Nothing stopping anyone of any age just surfing you tube yet. In Australia, unless you get a drivers license or passport, you can go through life without any photo ID. This is how the govt is changing that

Great.
The sooner the internet becomes an overregulated dystopia, the sooner we can move to whatever comes next. Then we'll get a few good years before they ruin that too.

This seems like it would be a privacy nightmare assuming that Youtube would want something like your ID to prove your age

 

[Nightmare442]

Every single time I hear about some stupid shit they have done I question why it's allowed to continue exist

From the government to the wildlife to the fires the smart Australians can't win
