Protecting kids should be part of doing business for online platforms.   
 
I’m championing the Kids Online Safety Act because parents deserve more than excuses from companies who put children at risk. They deserve accountability.

Online safety update: you can’t find out about the Jackdaw decision if you’re under the age of 18

I've had a copyright claim submitted over a few small Tesla clips in my latest video while talking about some of the sweet Roadster thruster footage. Obviously all fair use. How is it fair @YouTubeCreators that a baseless claim like this can be made by a company that has absolutely nothing to do with Tesla? All monetisation removed again for up to 30 days including shopping and I just need to take it until my dispute expires. Add to that I need to tick boxes in my dispute submission agreeing that "I understand that filing fraudulent disputes may result in termination of my YouTube channel." For creators this stuff scares them into being bullied into having their earnings taken away. It only needs a 2 second glance to see that the claim itself is fraudulent, so such claims should never make their way to a creator in the first place. All the power is with the claimant, almost nothing with the creator. 🥺

absolute cinema as expected 🙌

ty to all the creators who inspire us to touch grass in new ways

Parents deserve control, and corporations must design for kids' safety—not addiction.

Hey Habibi, Just wanted to say that I was in your chat the first day I heard you in Rust. I really enjoyed your role play and I was supporting you. Went to tune in on another day and I was banned from your chat... Disappointing that you hoped on the hate train like everyone else even though I treated you with kindness and respect.

YouTube clarified that the change only affects videos users have uploaded themselves, rather than every video they watch on the platform dexerto.com/youtube/youtube-…

YouTube is testing hiding the Dislike button on regular videos. For some users, the button has disappeared from the usual row and been moved into the three-dot menu, while Like is still right there. So if you want to dislike a video, you now have to open another menu first. After removing public dislike counts in 2021 and the Dislike button from Shorts, this feels like another step toward making dislikes harder to use.

Snapchat, TikTok, and YouTube are stealing the joys of childhood from American kids and replacing them with anxiety, depression, and isolation at levels never before seen. We can stop this shameless profiteering, and we must.

Ofcom admits it may never collect 4chan’s £520,000 fine after the site responded to it with an AI-generated hamster The UK regulator says blocking 4chan in the UK could be an option

"Let's just dispel this myth: There is no privacy online." Age-verification for adult websites is common sense, and handwringing over privacy concerns is misplaced. The legislation surrounding age-verification makes data retention illegal. This means that these laws actually enhance privacy protection online. via @Schilling1776

Abusing the system is a matter of perspective. You think it's abusing the system? I do not. And there's no factual thing you can show me and tell me that says that's legitimately abusing the system. That's your opinion. And you still can't tell me where I'm lying. You just say I am, and I'm not.

Syko Stu speaks out about the Raja Jackson incident for the first time “I had to relearn how to walk, I had a severe traumatic brain injury. I was off work for an entire year. It’s still ongoing. I do things multiple times because I don’t remember I did it. Rampage Jackson wanted me to call him. Then I saw him trashing me on all these podcasts.” (via @Liveloveneno)
