The Australia Labor government, Albanese and the honourable Michelle Rowland federal member for parliament and communications minster are fucking clowns. It's stupid shit like this that's the _real_ problem with "big tech" social media platforms. These morons just simply don't understand basic economics and basic business.

Why would a company like Meta, X and TikTok give up a large multi-billion dollar segment of the market. That is, young children from the ages of ~3 to 16 (_yes kids these days can use a computer or device from a pretty young age!_)

The whole masquerade of "online saftey" and the new Australia legislation of the Online Safety Act 2021 is complete and utter bullshit.

You wanna fix this whole cybercrime and cyber bullying that goes on (_which btw if you understood how these fucking platforms worked in the first place, you'd realise drives up engagement on the platforms by abusing human emotional and psychological weakness_), then ban and make illegal with multi-Billion dollar fines the following:

- Profiting off data collected by users on your platform(s)
- Categorizing users on your platform and performing A/B tests
- Targeting users (_of any age_) for advertising

In fact just ban targeted advertising period.
