An Irish Green socialist with a penchant for heavy metal, video games, horror movies and obvious nonsense that does harm to no one.
Please don't repost twitter or obvious propaganda from any government into my timeline. Same goes for anything Musk related.

One US advocate, who actually favours regulating social media, describes the success of these lobbying efforts by Meta over there; "They are doing a very good job distracting from any legislation that would hold them accountable," said Ava Smithing, director of advocacy and operations at the Young People's Alliance, an advocacy group that favors regulation of social media. (By the way, Apple and Google already have excellent ways of identifying if you are an adult when you are accessing their app stores, based on whether you have a credit card. Banks, you see, are reluctant to offer credit cards to children)

How’s this one looking, round about now? Does it feel like it was wrong.
