It's not a social media ban. It's a "protect the children from teh PORN!!" rule.
still bullshit.
It is so much bullshit.
I’m absolutely down to Degoogle (and get rid of Windows and Microsoft) but it’s a lot of administrative work and organisation for someone who doesn’t even have energy for hobbies and loses items while they’re still holding it.
They’ve done a good job of monopoly. Or rather an evil job.
A lot of small businesses literally run on google sheets and docs (I work for one, hence the prudent backups before we go on leave until next year). Most of them tend to be of the sort that provide things other companies literally need to operate. Going to be a bit of an oopsie here.
I’ll say… I hope it bites someone involved in the arse.
Lol why don't they just do what the UK did (but the kids got around that too)? Or just make the ban for everyone if we need to verify our ages
