Oooooh SNAP!!!

@milesizdead yeah, it is sad that politicians all over the world are morally panicking and banning social media from teen instead of keeping companies accountable for the problem like bad moderation etc. @randahl

@randahl Potzblitz ️ Wonderful ideas, hopefully they will be finalized in all of EU!

[aruiz@mastodon.social]

@ecomba @jeppe @randahl It is rather simple, if a node in the federation allows or amplifies that type of content, you ban the node from the fediverse

[pa27@mastodon.social]

@randahl Yes! About time the shit platforms were held liable for content, like a publisher.

@randahl Sanchez is really fine

[chris_toph@mastodon.social]

One can expect people in Spain will move to Mastodon and then it will become more popular.

@energisch_
Und dann ist es auch kein Problem mehr, Minderjährige da drauf zu lassen.
@randahl

[energisch_@troet.cafe]

@Nike_Leonhard @randahl like in Australia, where most of the teens find ways around?
No - I, too, wished an internet, that's save for all to use. And accessible for all. Those plattforms who do wish to boost stuff, that's rather uhm, naughty and not nice?
Well, they can offer closed memberships, like clubs. Maybe with extra safety strings attached. But in general: Chat should be okay for everyone to use safely and without fans and algorithms to spread BS more quickly.

@randahl These are great (if unimplementable) measures, but kind of fall flat when the other side of this is they're going for age verification and signed a deal with Palantir for facial recognition tech.

[jeppe@mastodon.social]

@aruiz @ecomba @randahl as far as i know, each instance would have to ban
Which could put pressure on the moderation task for smaller instances.

@shaperOfDefiance @randahl when you think an European state is starting to enforce it's sovereignty...

[budududuroiu@hachyderm.io]

@randahl people cheering this and taking the populist veneer hook line and sinker need to be reminded that European politicians are in for making some pretty unpopular decisions related to: pensions, growth, further taxing of the middle class to find ReArm. Clamping down on platforms and venues for critical evaluations of society is part of the playbook regarding ruling from a position of unpopularity

@randahl

[shaperofdefiance@mas.to]

@arq_urb_sudaka Yeah, even the best case scenario doesn't look very good.
Even if they ditch the age verification thing and Palantir goes to shit soon, there's like one scenario where the legal project threads the needle perfectly, and about a hundred scenarios where the result is that the president of our National Footbal League can criminally charge foreigners, because they're hosted by the same company as a website where he thinks you can watch football for free.
