However, what their staff seemed better at (and were more interested in) was defending civil liberties. Taking on all of this seems to have made them so much less effective.

Something you quickly notice is how they try to do *everything*. They try to be the mental health circle, to fundraise to do research, to run a self-regulatory program, and to do the civil liberties thing.

https://www.intgovforum.org/en/content/dynamic-coalition-on-childrens-rights-in-the-digital-environment They were at the IGF a few years ago, it seems to defend end-to-end encryption. I don't get why they couldn't just launch a conventional civil liberties org.

The case involved a number of due process violations and procedural weirdness (violations of this kind have been addressed). The Fifth Circuit shouldn't have done that. This is likely where the confusion stemmed.

To be clear, "Arthur" was actually sentenced for child abuse. Misinfo about this often comes from when Prostasia reported on the case a number of years ago (although, by mistake). #FreeSpeech

To be fair, crime dramas can be better when they don't have lots of technology.

Or not in a meaningful sense that is relevant to the plot. There is a scene with a very primitive website.

"illegal content" Define illegal content.

"systemic risks" Define systemic risks.

"freedom of expression" Define freedom of expression.

A bill can drive censorship without requiring it. That is still a problem.

So much of Death Note's plot would fall apart with the Internet. If you pay close attention, there are televisions, there are computers, but there is no Internet.

To be fair to Shogun, it sounds like a film based on a specific time period, it's not some "live action adaptation" of "One Piece".

The ironic thing about Death Note is that they could have stopped people being killed just by not putting people's names up on the television.

A number of bits of Chinese content (i.e. novels, movies) would be alright, if for one detail, someone shoving in propaganda about how wonderful China is (i.e. China is the best in the world).

Since that post seemed to be bugged, I posted it again.

"age assurance" is more of a blanket term for guessing at someone's age. "age verification" is a more specific implementation of "age assurance". #FreeSpeech

You know what, let's be a bit more specific about it.

https://www.independent.ie/business/media-regulator-coimisiun-na-mean-to-defend-legal-action-taken-by-x/a1652074334.html "age assurance" covers data collection, guessing and stupidity. Some got banned by FB for "being minors" for rping as obvious #anime / toon style characters. #FreeSpeech #Ireland

"age verification" is not the only way that "age assurance" might be practiced badly.
