Australia’s internet watchdog says social media firms are still "turning a blind eye” to online child sex abuse material on their platforms, singling out YouTube as having been unresponsive to its inquiries. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/08/06/tech/australia-regulator-youtube-child-abuse/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #youtube #australia #socialmedia #children #childabuse #apple #google #alphabet #meta #snap #whatsapp

The #reclaimtech activity this month is #ChuckZuck ! Do you (or someone you know) still have an account on the Zuckerverse? #Instagram, #WhatsApp, #Threads and #Facebook -- this month, all together, we shut it down!!

Hitting delete is the easy part-- disentangling your life to #reclaimcontrol is much harder. So here is my experienced guide to getting off social media (hint: you need more than technical tips)

This contrasts with #WhatsApp who say they have not - and is the same as #Apple - who also refused to confirm or deny, saying if they had, it would be illegal for them to comment.

Does anyone have or know of a simple graphic that I could share with older family members that shows “WhatsApp vs Signal” in a way that’ll help when I say “we should move to signal”.

Context: some family members are getting annoyed with issues on WhatsApp and I want to take the opportunity to get them to move.

Over the last ten years more and more people started to join Signal as a privacy by design chat service. With Meta/Facebook changing their Terms of Use a few years ago, many more people joined Signal. And since Trump II, Signal is now mainstream in many countries. E.g. my family and friends in The Netherlands migrated there in the first half of 2025.

Now I'm still on #WhatsApp, but really in passive mode. The app on my phone has all notifications off. And I only see what's going on in that #UndemocraticTech app, when I go there intentionally, which I do only to read. I stopped sharing photos, videos and texts.

If you want my response or input, just open your Signal, Element.io/matrix or Delta.chat app. Good ol' email works really nicely still :-)

That's my message to friends, family and acquaintances. Meet me at the other side.
