    Do it.

    The world needs more social media regulation, not less.

    Clearly.

      This comment i would used to jump on about how important it was to keep the internet free and anonymous…

      But lately i’ve come to the conclusion that real freedom is a dream that humanity is not ready for. There are times when i even think, some people simply shouldn’t be allowed to access the internet :(

        For me that ship sailed after Charlottesville.

        Is this Musk’s and meta end goal? Make internet ultra shitty so that every social network needs age verification/user real data so they can use their dominant position to target people more viciously?

        It’s not like of 99% of people cares about giving their actual name and details.

    I don’t always support censorship. Only when it’s against opinions I disagree with. 👌

    At first I read the headline to mean that they wanted to use Twitter to act as an age supplier.
