Australia says its new “Digital Duty of Care” bill is about giving users more control over their feeds.
Ultimately though, it builds the infrastructure for much broader online censorship.
The draft would cover social media, messaging, search, games, app stores, ISPs and AI, with fines up to A$109.2M.
And the government could expand what counts as “harmful” content later.
“More control” for users or more control for the state?
