Re: Online Safety Bill Etc

It's all those 'ambulance chasing' lawyers isn't it, you now have to warn everyone about everything, otherwise you end up locked up and bankrupt.

You know the sort of thing . .

"Have you trodden in a cow pat in the dark while rustling cattle? Call us now and compensation will be swift and satisfactory"

If they really are that dumb, the "warning" wont matter anyway, they'll just ignore it.

It really is as stupid as putting "Warning, may contain nuts" on a packet of nuts.

They probably do it to cover those with mental impairments/disabilities, such as people with dementia etc

MPs have voted against a proposal to ban under-16s from using social media.

The Conservatives had pushed for the move via an amendment to the government's flagship education legislation currently going through parliament: the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill.

It had been backed by the House of Lords, but was defeated in the Commons on Monday night by 307 votes to 173.

Been announced today that social media companies will now have to robustly check that their minimum age policies are adhered to, that there will be protection from groomers, that there will be safer feeds and that there will be an end to product testing on children.
