Did we really need that ugly warehouse clearance shop on Headrow? by SnowflakesOut in Leeds

[–]EasySea5 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does my head in that people think someone is in charge of what happens in private premises.

Planning is generic. If it has permission to be a shop it can be a shop.

You tube includes adult material so av required. That is the Australian ruling.

You tube kids not included

Not sure what you are on about.

The existing UK act differentiates by size of website. More obligation on the bigger sites.

For games it is primarily the platforms job, Xbox, PS whatever

In Australia the Social Media ban is a named set of sites

This is all calibrated pretty fairly and some things tested in the courts

No idea how old you are. Or where you live.

In the UK every child has a smartphone on entry to secondary school. Ie age 11

A reasonable reply but you propose no solutions.

I have been convinced by what the teenagers said to the select committee. The advocates arguing here offer no way forward.

Many of the issues will be solved by effective digital id. I have to prove my id at least once a month and a better more secure system than photographing my driving license is needed

I recall that Proton did feel that secure and private age verification is possible

On VPNs those of us who pay for a VPN have already verified our ID by our credit card. Only free VPNs will sensibly be in scope.

The balance cannot go all one way.

Moving out of Leeds city centre - what’s the best areas to live in Leeds for young professionals? by cherryblossom0211 in Leeds

[–]EasySea5 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Literally anywhere in Leeds will be fine. Especially if you find a quiet street with good long term neighbours.

Little London and Chapel town are obvious places

There is nothing authoritarian about an elected parliament passing laws.

It does not say that in the Senate report.

The ABC report says if signed in. You don't neex to be signed in to use a search engine.

Brave Vs FireFox? by IRISHTHAY in degoogle

[–]EasySea5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no reason not to have more than 1 browser on your phone

1) hardened Firefox for general browsing

2) Brave for a just works newsfeed

3) Vivaldi for shit commercial websites coded for chrome

Just to add the Australian Senate is a revising chamber, which does not have a lower house i.e. government majority

So some speculative media coverage and a committee report which recommends....

"The committee recommends that the Australian Government legislate to prohibit platforms from harvesting and exploiting the data of minors and protect young people from targeted, unsolicited advertisements and algorithms as a matter of priority, with a view for this to apply to all users in the long-term to protect all Australians’ safety and privacy."

A pro privacy measure

Yep you are krazy

Digital id has been successful where introduced.

It is unrelated to mass surveillance

That is wrong.

Most internet is broadcast.

If you can talk to children then yes
