You can also do that in Tubular, if you prefer a FOSS option
- Comment on Sovereign citizen who kidnapped her child sentenced to two years' jail 4 weeks ago:
We import all sorts of fringe political positions from the US. There’s even a cohort of “second amendment” gun advocates, despite having no bill of rights. The actual second amendment lets the federal government take over state debts.

Lots of little things that don’t like being stepped on, but no really big predators. No wolves, coyotes, bears etc. Dingos, cats and tassie devils only really hunt small stuff.

- Comment on Authorities must effectively regulate social media instead of banning children and young people 5 months ago:
Removing the benefits that social media brings will not achieve the government’s objective of improving young people’s lives, and ignores the fact that the harms extend beyond children and young people to marginalized people and groups. The best way to protect children and young people online is by protecting all users with stronger data protection laws and not personalizing feeds based on profiling.
Yes, 100%. I’m glad to see somebody with clout saying this. It’s been bizarre to see the government acknowledge something as harmful and malicious, and then only keep kids away from it instead of trying to stop it from being harmful and malicious.
No profiling by default sounds pretty good. I’d also throw in “feed algorithms must be public”

Now do the crappy mobile games
The removals also follow former Netflix gaming boss Mike Verdu — who just announced that he’s a VP of “GenAI for Games” at Netflix — telling *Game File’s *Stephen Totilo that the company wasn’t building interactive titles anymore.
Oh. Oh no.
