I like to re-share this picture of me presenting at Google to an audience including the FBI, because yes, I will fight for digital rights and better privacy and security by design. And I will have great hair while I rip apart tech bro work and egos. Especially edtech egos.
I’d say the whole 67 thing is the same/ coming from some brain rot white you tubers

It is really sad that your mental decline is so evident and we all are here to remind you that you didn’t feed her today and you for sure told Lisa she can get another dragon

If I have to see one more close up video of a dirty, un groomed bearded white dude in cyber security on my social media ..

Pls. Get these dudes some media training or maybe real job. Or just a shower and a Turkish barber

If you came into my classroom and did this to get children off task I promise you I would rebuke you . Even if you were a PM

Because why can’t he do better?

Shows how little they care and how obsessed with being online they are

Social media is so dangerous that we need to get the entire population to age verify, which is why the Prime minister is reinforcing an internet meme with children too young to be online. According to his own policies.

Please make it make sense.

I tell you, the adults and their damn phones …

Adults created a world of gamification, social media and an education system that teaches to tests.. and yet they want to blame children for attention spans and device addiction… babe..the adults are the problem

I’d also love to know if Australian schools use Facebook or other socials and if they will stop doing so now… because surely you can’t post news or images of or about children on an app they can’t use …

Tech companies don’t care about fines. This is however a great way to tie everyone’s online activity to their ID and to make money for sketchy age verification companies, who also get breached.
I don’t see how any of this is a win for ethics or child welfare

I certainly hope both of them get help with their addictions and mental health issues.
Kate Says Addiction Isn’t a Choice. William Says “Cheers!”
November 2025 Well, isn’t timing a funny old thing. Kate Middleton issued a statement  declaring that “addiction is not a choice, or a personal failing, but a complex mental health condition.”…

Says who ?
November 24, 2025 at 10:41 PM
I think it is lots of vested interests who are friends of ministers or powerful folk. For example the boards of most edtech or of the sketchy gdpr consultancies have a lot of well connected people who don’t care about data harms. They see it as needed to control the plebs

Please could edtech ethics people do some background checks before they invite folk like this into our rooms

I’m tired of Sophie and others being recommended to me as “allies”
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie_...
In February 2025, she spoke at a conference for the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, alongside figures including Jordan Peterson, Nigel Farage and Peter Thiel.[35]

Yeah. And she’s somehow welcome

Like can we discuss who is funding the uk screen free stuff? Why Sophie winkleman is being used instead of anyone else and why she refuses to mention data brokerage? Or harms from data ?
November 24, 2025 at 7:22 AM
Every time I write or talk about this I get told by edtech governance advocates that I shouldn’t “be political”. But I am simply begging us to notice that the screen free/ age verification isn’t about child safety. And that is politics but I can say that neutrally without representing any party
Someone absolutely needs to do a dissertation on the appropriation of “child safety” in the policy sphere by affluent white elites on the political right wing.
November 24, 2025 at 7:21 AM
I’ve said this sooo many times. If they cared about children they’d do more to actually stop stuff like this.
November 24, 2025 at 7:19 AM
Ooh yess. The screen feee lobby too, who refuse to engage with us and when I call this in i have been told by edtech governance folk to be “less political”. But I’m just trying to find out who funds all this and why it gets heard. I won’t apologise for that

As an example, a very popular refugee lad in year 11 just vanished. We were told he’d been fostered in Kent. But his socials remained untouched, he never contacted friends. That simply wouldn’t happen if he’d “just moved foster homes”
November 24, 2025 at 7:17 AM
I lost hope when I went to a UKRI meeting in 2018 and they spent 2 hours discussing what harm was. As if we don’t know, but the focus is: prevaricate and demand civility and stall every debate

Except the ones like screen free etc which somehow get heard .. odd that. Wonder why etc etc
November 24, 2025 at 7:15 AM
I had a manager when I worked outside education who told me I was neurotic for saying this. He stayed in the “promise you a good night or refund” chain every 2 weeks. Hence why I mentioned it to him. He came in the week after, pale, telling me he’d seen it and asking what to do
November 24, 2025 at 7:06 AM
Worse still, I knew of white affluent parents who were letting their girl children stay overnight in these hotels for “sleepovers”. Which is what the traffickers want- extra targets but also the normalisation of “sleepovers” in adult settings to lure in the vulnerable
November 24, 2025 at 7:04 AM
There is quite a bit of trafficking that goes on through the two main budget U.K. hotels. Men with very young girls. Has been for years. The police do nothing. People don’t believe me when I say this until they see it. Plain sight is where the worst crime happens
How is this not the top story on every news bulletin?
This has been happening for years and instead of doing anything to protect children successive governments have made the situation worse. This isn't just on councils. It is part of failings on a State level.

More then 2,000 trafficked children and lone child asylum seekers missing from UK councils’ care

The whiteness at the head of education everywhere is the problem imo
