    Australian here, don’t be fooled by our governments tokenistic press releases. This legislation sounds good but it’ll be another insufficient measure that doesn’t actually address the problem. Like the under 16s “ban” this will allow the government and media to talk about social algorithms like it’s solved and they were succesful.

    I have a feeling that these companies will intentionally try to push low quality content to users who have turned it off, to motivate them to turn it back on.

    Cause that’s just the way these fuckers are.
