The Australien Government has made an ad about the Social Media Ban for Under-16s, and it's surprisingly honest and informative. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxRB5qWphJE

    @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social Love the ad! The irony of it only being available on YouTube is pretty rich, though. I'd support the Patreon to see these also going to a Peertube channel, but not to be used as exclusive content for one of the same companies being railed against in the ad itself. #AusPol #YouTube #Peertube

    @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social Please consider using PeerTube, too. Those Tech Billionaires behind YouTube can "go f*ck themselves" as your vid correctly states.

  • @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social "We all agree social media can be harmful." I don't. I only see harm from quasi-social media, not actually social media. Australia is calling quasi-social media social... That is harmful... People need to know the difference!

    @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social "there is always a well-known solution to every human problem — neat, plausible, and wrong." Why not legislate a option for users to turn off the algorithm? A check box that changes what posts you see to people, hashtags, etc you have subscribed to. Doesn't solve malicious ads, but it's a good start.

    @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social Great to see this happen and break the toxic cycle of addictive technology imposed upon us! Now the same should be done for the indoctrination attempts and fake content on these media. And that starts with education. Truth under attack!

    @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social great piece, it's a pity you don't mention Fediverse, could do to a piece on governments continuing to post on X etc and promote it on official websites, instead of using Fediverse platforms? http://xodus.online for material on this topic
