Teens are locked out of parts of the Internet by the age gate that the UK Online Safety Act has imposed 馃毀

Don't believe the hype: it goes way beyond the headlines of porn.

From health advice to memes, sites are over-moderating content or completely blocking under 18s to avoid the duties imposed by the Act.

ORG's Sara Chitseko and @JamesBaker explain it all.

Teens are left in the dark when it comes to getting support or news online.

Adults have to stay in the soft play area unless they scatter their ID or biometrics across the Internet.

The UK Online Safety Act is a shoddy law.

Tell your MP it鈥檚 gotta change 猬囷笍
