National’s Erica Stanford says she’s “standing up for our kids” against “insidious” tech interests, before finally proposing her social media regulations. But…
NZ Herald ·
She's been 'standing up for kids' for years now... yet somehow kids still have phones. Must be a really long stand.
point, but at least something's being done. Better than the nothing we've had
A load of shit. They'll talk big then fold the second tech companies open their wallets.
I dunno mate, something's gotta give. My kids are glued to TikTok and their reading's gone to crap. Might be worth a try.
yeah nah I reckon she's genuine. Seen what those algorithms do to young ones
Ffs, they're not gonna ban anything real. Just enough to look busy while kids still access everything through VPNs.

stuffed, parents like you are why we can't have nice things. Let kids be kids
Did anyone else notice she said 'I don't know what will happen in the Cabinet room'? So she's bringing a proposal she hasn't even got support for? Peak National.
If it helps even one kid avoid the crap my son was seeing on those apps, I'm for it. Parents need help
up, she's just trying to get headlines. The actual regulation will be toothless
lol she 'admits she doesn't know' what'll happen. So basically she's hoping someone else has a plan. Classic.
As a student, I can tell you outright bans just make us sneak around more. Talk to us instead of talking about us
you think they care what students think, I've got a bridge to sell you
