Face to face conversations about polarising topics with nuance and respect are getting a rare occurrence in day to day life... People are put in there own social media minority bubbles grouped by advertising algorithms, they are living in an echo chamber of there own opinions until they feel like a majority... IMO, I could go on... Quote

I reckon even the founders never foreseen the direction it would take, but loved every penny it generated. As we all know, some peoples whole life is based on SM. Very sad.

sixwheeledbeast Posted July 17 Posted July 17 People also take things too literally because most stuff is read online with there own bias and no context. It's fuelling cancel culture and making people think negatively about others without knowing them or the intent of the text. I'm relatively conservative when it comes to wanting legislation but I believe we should seriously consider not allowing Under 16's to have internet access on personal devices. Not an easy topic to tackle but we restrict other things like smoking or buying petrol or knifes etc. Issues now is much of high school work relies on having a smartphone, this has de-facto set the age of owning a device at 11, 2 years before the US COPPA that most of the big internet services seem to use as an age limit. Much of the new Online Safety Act is useless, it's trying to target platforms but it will never work. Much like an anti-virus it can only ever be reactive as content is found, even that is only going to be suitable on public facing information. So private echo chambers are unlikely to be found, it may even move users towards more private forums. Lets ignore the fact it will impose new restrictions forcing sites to harvest more data about people to age gate them. Seems to have a requirement to back door any encryption. That it can be bypassed relatively simply and reduce growth of our UK data centres. Clearly people with no clue how the internet works have drafted it, at least they'll make some money out of big tech in the short term I suppose... Quote
