      ¡Ese es mi perro!

      Pd: For english speakers, as bad as it sounds, it is a compliment due context.

      It’s just a hunch but I kind of feel safer siding with the people, open-source, democracy.. against billionaires, hypercapitalist-ai-surveillance, and fascisty ‚might makes right‘ politics.

      *Just kind of an instinct, you know?*

      The world needs to say “NO” to the tech bros far more often.

      I live in Spain since like 18 years, feel like Sanchez has really bad internal governance, but on the international scene he is massive W. Something like Macron maybe? Bad for internal politics, bestest for international.

      It really isn’t just “tech oligarchs” opposing social media bans; civil society groups like EFF (who also oppose Big Tech) also [oppose these laws](https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/07/just-banning-minors-social-media-not-protecting-them). Social media bans like this restrict the rights of people to information access and free expression, and also impose surveillance regimes on everyone. You can’t enforce a ban like this without tracking the age and identity of everyone who uses the internet. Rather than banning dangerous practices (like microtargeted ads), governments are opting for the routes that give _them_ more control instead.

      This is about removing online anonymity to better track and control political dissent. Every country is trying to do the same thing. Linking your real life ID or face biometrics to access content on the internet is a very slippery slope.

      I don’t have a lot of time for Pedro Sanchez but this is they way to go

      Isn’t this what the Oligarchs are pushing for? Using this narative as a way to track more information? This feels like a scare tactic to „protect the kids“. 

      I do feel like Internet should be limited to kids, but not by needing to give your personal information

      The courts need to dismantle these fckn toxic companies.

      Facebook, Apple, Google they all need to be dismantled and sold piece by piece

      I would go one step further, impose a 100% tax on all Tesla and Starlink system sold in Spain. Money to be used for the persecution cost associated with Elon’s platform.

      This is for minors under 16.

      For everyone freaking out about stifling of speech and government overreach – this is for minors under 16 – not adults.

      Countries often have restrictions on what minors are allowed to buy, read, or watch. Spain has a detailed movie rating system to help parents decide what is appropriate. If you as a parent think it is important to get your kid online, I am confident you’ll be able to make that happen.

      Good, it’s time the EU reigned these clowns in before they destroy Europe like they did the U.S.
