Channel.org is a chance for organisations to not only own their online presence, but to reconnect with their community.

Open social media offers the opportunity to make use of a network of social media platforms, used by millions across the globe.

But, the organisations that would benefit most are missing. Even though the space is growing rapidly thanks - in part - to the social activists who fill it!

It's time to change that.

New Australian social media legislation to give Communications Minister sweeping powers to define platforms, 'Age-Restricted Social Media Platforms', as defined below.

These platforms will see a ban on Under-16s and require them to age verify all users.

"Open social media offers a chance to escape the cycle of good product turns bad product and wiping the slate clean to start again. Instead, open social media offers the chance to build in a space where you can easily hop-skip-jump to the next best platform without losing your community."

If you don't like the algorithm, turn it off and back on again.

(Or just move to somewhere without one.)

'"Across all five social media sites, two-thirds of news influencers (63%) are men. The percentage of male news influencers was highest on Facebook (67%) and YouTube (68%) and the gender gap was smallest on TikTok — where 50% of news influencers are men."

“A parliamentary committee examining the impact of #SocialMedia on #Australian society has recommended users be given the power to alter, reset or turn off #algorithms, as well as be provided with greater #privacy protections but has stopped short of recommending a #ban on under-16s accessing social media.”

“#AnthonyAlbanese and his communications minister, #MichelleRowland, did not rule out the potential for #socialmedia users to have their faces subject to #biometric #scanning, for #online platforms to verify users’ ages using a government #database, or for all social media users – ‘regardless of age’ – being subject to age checks, only saying it would be up to #tech companies to set their own processes.”

I remind myself, Australian governments can’t computer.

A growing Musk-Trump relationship and growing rivals spell trouble for the fading platform

''“So, this isn't just about privacy or collecting data about kids,” said [Senator David] Shoebridge.

“This is literally everybody accessing social media, that's how it has to work, isn't it?”

“Yes,” replied Andrew Irwin, assistant secretary of online safety at [the Department of Communications].'

Odd that niche new media is carrying such an important story like the Australian government flagging putting the entire population onto internet verification checks, while old media is crickets.

Unless a) there's an inherent bias, b) they don't understand it or c) both.

Appears banning children is just a smokescreen, Senate committee uncovers Communications Dept plans to force every Australian onto digital ID to access commercial social media.

That's kind of hilarious. And annoying they'd even try.

"Amid the devastation in #Gaza, #Israel’s escalating media censorship, suppression of dissent, and targeting of journalists are deliberate efforts to block global access to information, the Committee found. It also noted how #socialMedia companies disproportionately removed “pro-Palestinian content” in comparison with posts inciting violence against Palestinians."

Asian Australians including Penny Wong say 'bamboo ceiling' has been a barrier to success
By Angelica Silva and Iris Zhao

Even in 2024, there is still a "bamboo ceiling" in Australia. It's an issue that hit home for many at this year's Asian-Australian Leadership Awards, including Foreign Minister Penny Wong.
