Im for it myself. Honestly wouldn’t mind a ban on algorithmic based news given the state that America is in.
I’m starting to see social media as smoking. It’s bad for you. Give up

I’d be happy to take the hit to get my wider family off of Facebook and X.
Although I feel this site has a more sensible algorithm that doesn’t reward brigading. I think some tighter regulation is possible in the digital sphere

But to implement it would require age verification… Which we already know is a horrible idea

Kids growing up being able to see porn on demand is also a horrible idea. Arguably a more horrible idea.
The onus is on us to provide a solution to that if we want to remove ID checks from websites that serve adult material. Which currently is porn but could be easily expanded to social media.
