Scoop: The most popular apps in Australia right now are social media platforms not included in the teen ban (so far).
This comes as teens make videos recommending that they all migrate to these alternative platforms to get around the ban — something experts warned about.

I've covered this in the piece but TLDR:
- there is a legal definition of 'age restricted social media platform'
- esafety doesn't decide who fits the definition, but it does have enforcement powers
- esafety says only its list of 10 platforms in the ban have to worry about the ban ATM

Gas use for electricity generation in Australia is plummeting.
Down 50% over the past decade (!!!) in the NEM on the east coast.
Gas has a small role that's getting smaller and will be absolutely crushed by big batteries in the electricity.
Not a transition fuel, no matter what BS the PM pushes.
