We are banning social media access for under 16s. These days kids must find their feet in a world where technology intrudes into every area of their life. I just can’t let that go on anymore. So we’re giving children their childhoods back.

The UK Government's 'careful review' of the research found a small correlation between children's use of social media and wellbeing, but no evidence of a causal effect: gov.uk/government/pub… assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0b46…

Why it's always Privacy V/s Safety privacy is not evidence of wrongdoing it is the foundation of free speech, human dignity and individual freedom.

This government will not stand by while children are put at risk online. Today I am calling on the tech companies to introduce device-level controls to prevent children from taking, sharing or viewing nude images. And if they don’t act, we will.

Jess Phillips resigned from gvnt May 12 citing Starmer's failure to act on this specific measure. lbc.co.uk/article/keir-s… Technology like this requires blanket ID vertification to take vetted photos.

Surveillance is not Safety. A Ban is not Care. A government that holds everyone else accountable but never its own institutions or its own elected is not a functional government. Let's be precise about what just happened: in Jan, the House of Lords twice voted to force a hard

Most apps start with identity → then add encryption by the time data is “secured”, metadata already exists At Status, profiles are created from cryptographic keys, not emails, phone numbers, or accounts ★ Chats use end-to-end encryption ★ Wallets are self-custodial ★

A social media ban should be extended to those aged 16 and 17, the children’s commissioner has proposed. Keir Starmer is considering whether to ban under-16s from social media sites, but Dame Rachel de Souza has said that any ban must apply “equally to all children” up to 18.
