LGBTIQA+ advocates are concerned the social media ban will have a significant impact on queer youth in regional and remote areas of Australia. They say there are not enough offline, physical supports for these teens to access when the ban comes into effect.
How about a corporate social media ban for everyone, and then everyone can use the Fediverse?
But yeah, seriously, online censorship ‘for the children’ only harms children by reinforcing offline bubbles, and preventing one of the few escape routes from being an option. It’s really bad.
