The US government would likely consider such a measure as facilitating censorship," the submission said.
This is such an asinine stretch and holy moly I think this is one of the biggest admissions of big tech’s true intentions to date, not that we didn’t already know this.
The United States is so blatantly corrupt. Controlled by big tech. An algorithm off switch kills social media’s black box of manipulation and they know it.
I pray that Australia holds strong and enacts this. I cannot wait to see the data on mental health effects in those with algorithmic and non-algorithmic feeds.
I cannot wait for this. Genuinely going to add it in my calendar haha
Rare intervention? From the country that messes with everything and everyone all the time? About as rare as sand in Egypt.
I had a similar thought. So many coups, drug running, propping up rebels, both domestically and international. Nobody does intervention like US. They ask us how is our intervention so good. It’s true. The US doesn’t say it, but others admit it is good.

It put a number of questions to the Australian government, including how Australia would define “harm” and “risks”
USA proving they don’t even understand the law.
rare?
It’s Australia. They have “rare” shark attacks too so maybe the word has some leeway.
Fuck… I’d love that in the US
Will never happen under the dictator.
I wanna make a joke here, going with my username. But i just fucking can’t anymore.
