Yay, my arXiv preprint on Mapping the Stochastic Penal Colony is finally live. Find out how #socialmedia #contentmoderation may just have prepared us for the fascist take-over in Trum'erica.

Spain will seek to ban social media for under-16s to protect them from harmful content such as pornography and violence, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said on Tuesday, after similar moves by countries including Australia, France and Portugal.

I have thousands of travel photos rotting on my hard drive because posting them one by one throughout the year is a chore. I realized I needed a bulk workflow. Now I can queue up a whole trip's worth of content in one sitting. My feed is active even when I'm sleeping.

Serious question: how credible is banning social media for people younger than 16, as more and more countries want to do (and which I support) without banning the sale of smartphones themselves?

From what I see, age verification technology is both a technical joke (savy users will easily bypass it) and a political threat (very intrusive for ALL internet users and imposing impossibly high compliance costs for smaller players, cf. the UK...?)
