Banning social media for under-16s is on the cards in the UK.
Age verification is the only way to do this, meaning millions will have to hand over sensitive data.
This industry lacks effective regulation. An U16s ban would multiply existing privacy risks.

A good Bylinetimes.com article, showing that the UK is really at a crossroads regarding populism vs. Europe and the EU 🇪🇺

If Starmer thinks that the way of resolving the Greenland issue is by having calm discussions with the crazy guy on the bus, then you have to question who's the crazy guy. By all means, keep things calm, but get off at the next stop.

If you can’t muster a single word in support of justice for Palestine, maybe you don’t have a moral leg to stand on when it comes to Greenland. Ever thought about that?
@aral We have politicians in the "United" Kingdom who will say in a single breath that the people of #Greenland should have self determination but that the people of #Scotland should not.
UK immigration gets talked up as a hot issue. Personally, I dislike how the current UK govt is handling it.
There's a consultation. Have you chipped in yet?
Yes, it's a pain. But [SPOILER] one of the last questions is about favourable treatment for new categories. Did I propose three new categories of US refugees, including LGBTQ?
Mainly, I'd suggest tackling the complicated questions with a bit of empathy for family bonds.

It’s clear that Trump is willing to extort the world for what he wants.
Being reliant on US tech firms for our digital infrastructure means the UK is exposed to having our systems switched off from afar.
We need digital sovereignty now.
