#CLuxon is doubling down on the #B416 social media ban for kiwis under 16. This is a terrible idea, for many well-documented reasons. But, if tech policy and civil rights activists allow ourselves to be pulled into a narrow, negative campaign against it, there's a risk this will push many people into supporting it on a 'better than nothing' basis.

What we need is a positive campaign for a suite of tech regulations that can actually shift power away from technofascists.
