🚨BREAKING: The Government announces all UK phones will require ID and surveillance software
This means that Britons will be left with CHILD-LOCKED devices unless they comply with digital ID checks
Protecting children is a noble goal, but the government mandating that all phones come with surveillance software is a crossing of the Rubicon that would make the UK one of the most authoritarian internet regimes in the world

Well I dunno mate, you did kind of raise it in two press conferences. And told us you called the governing body of the sport to chat about it.
But I suppose it’s odd that we’re giving it airtime.
As a South African Soutie this bloke is moments away from saying, “listen here, my friend”.
And that’s not good 😂

The last sentence is the real meat and potatoes of this.
What's being promoted as a 'social media ban for children', is really an ID check for every adult.
🚨 SUMMARY: The UK's social media ban for children from early 2027:
- "User-to-user" apps where people create, share and interact with content (e.g. TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, X, Facebook) will be banned for under-16s
- WhatsApp, Signal and YouTube Kids will be exempt
- Under-16s will also be banned from livestreaming, messaging strangers on gaming apps like Discord and using disappearing messages
- 16 and 17 year olds will face nightly social media curfews and limits on infinite scrolling with more details next month
- AI "romantic companion" chatbots will be banned for under-18s
- Adults can still access social media through age checks like facial recognition, digital IDs, passports and credit cards

Do I think YouTube could handle it's responsibility to kids better? Of course. Do I think they could create their product more for family utility and less for holding attention. Absolutely! Does this help with any of that? No, it does the opposite.
