@John Goddard breaks down eKaren’s failure to win in #AUStriches court against Xitter:

eKaren v 𝕏 - Dissecting the judgment https://t.co/SHj5d1dXaS

I won’t say however that King Cantillionaire has won: View quoted note → When I’m wrong I concede, as I did with my Orban coup prediction: View quoted note → However eKaren has simply lost this opening salvo - she and the State, will win this war. Albo has already announced a parliamentary inquiry into social media and their “social license” to operate responsibly: View quoted note → And South Australia are seeking to ban children under 14 from social media: View quoted note → This is the same approach they took after the National referendum failed in 2023 - States legislated it regardless of what people wanted. Remember, Digital ID was legislated less than 2 months ago: View quoted note → And the idea of KYCing social media usage goes back to the previous government, both parties agree on this policy: View quoted note → Their inability to force global takedowns in this instance is merely a bump on the road (their ability to takedown local content remains). They will now create a framework that platforms won’t be able to argue against in court with clearer legislation for much greater levels of control than they have today, and all of these parasites will happily wield that power to censor anyone for any reason, as their already tabled mis- and disinformation legislation proposes: View quoted note → #nostr is going to become very important in the not too distant future.
