Here at Hotline.ie we are downstream of when things go wrong with kids and smartphones. Ask yourself this Christmas, does my 8 year old really, really, really need a smart phone with 24/7 full on connection to the internet? #sensible #parenting101 #youcansayno

I was offered this "muscle cure" when my baby was 3 wks old. I was exhausted, sore, best intentioned and seeking help, to be told that 900€ & a quick nip at my baby's tongue would fix it all. I simply didn't believe it, but know others who went ahead with it. #TongueTieQuackery

PSA Images circulating of Defence Forces vehicles in Dublin City Centre are not from this evening, but from a separate routine operation and have no connection to this evening's events. We ask everyone to be sensitive to the spreading disinformation, and to take care.

Today, the Digital Services Act — #DSA — becomes legally enforceable for Very Large Online Platforms & Search Engines. These systemic platforms play a very important role in our daily lives — so it was time for the EU to set our own rules. A safer Internet for everyone 🇪🇺
