       The UK is moving forward with its efforts to ban social media for young people. Ahead of today's House of Lords debate on the topic, we’re getting you situated with a primer on what’s been happening and what it all means. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/03/uk-politicians-continue-miss-point-latest-social-media-ban-proposal

       @eff I'm beginning to think this is not about young people and their safety, and more about control and setting up for a conservative rightwing future.What does social media and networking provide?Diverse range of views empowering democracy to push for things that benefit the people. What did the rightwing parties have 20-30 years ago?Control through mainstream media. They are assuming people will return to their trusted news source, Sky News, to misinform the public to destroy democracy.
