1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: The Australian government, as I mentioned earlier, entered into the 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: world of fantasy by pretending they can slap a social 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: media ban on kids. ALBINIZI no less as drafting legislation 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: involving age limits. They think about sixteen. If you're below sixteen, 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: you won't be able to access allegedly social media experts. 6 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 1: Certified Facebook community trainer Katie Brown is with us on 7 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: This Katie Morning. To you one, I'll ask you whether 8 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: it's doable in a moment as an idea. Do you 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: like it? No? 10 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 2: I don't like it as an idea. I just don't 11 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 2: think it's practical. But it's not helpful for young people 12 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 2: navigating digital spaces either. 13 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: Exactly. 14 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: All the experts say it's not a good idea. 15 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: So it's not a good idea, and it's not even workable. 16 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: It's not workable, isn't. I mean if you ask somebody 17 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: are they sixteen or eighteen or whatever the case may be, 18 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: they're not going to answer correctly if they don't want to, 19 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 1: are they? 20 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 2: No? No, I think you probably had a fake idea 21 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 2: when you were when you were younger, you know, so 22 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 2: young people will find a way to get onto the 23 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: channels that they want to get onto if it's the 24 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 2: popular channel that they want to be on. 25 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: So can I just congratulate? 26 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: Okay? 27 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 1: Do you when you said I had a face ID 28 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: when I was younger. When I was younger, they didn't 29 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: have the Internet. So I'm a great deal older than 30 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: you clearly think I am. But thank you so much 31 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: for that, because you've you've lifted me up immeasurably for 32 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: the day. But no, I'm correct and saying, no one 33 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: anyway has done this, have they? And they just can't. 34 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: Well, I was listening to the South Australian Premiere talking 35 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: about how Florida had had enacted some sort of law, 36 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: but you know, you could just drive over the barrier 37 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: line and you're in a new state and you can 38 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: access again. So yeah, like I say, provision doesn't work. 39 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 2: Fixing the core of the problem, which is the content, 40 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: which is the you know, the platforms allowing access to 41 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: that content, that's really important. And so I think it's 42 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: worth while putting pressure on the platforms and saying, hey, 43 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: you need to be doing more to protect young people 44 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: under the age of sixteen, But banning them will just 45 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: drive that behavior into secret and it means that they 46 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 2: might not be talking to the appearance about some of 47 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: the best stuff they're seeing. 48 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: Well done, Cadie, appreciate your expertise. Katie Brown, one of 49 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: my favorite gifts. Let's get her on again. Any old 50 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: subject doesn't really matter as long as she flatters me. 51 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: I'm all in for more from the mic Asking Breakfast. 52 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 2: Listen live to news talks it'd be from six am weekdays, 53 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 2: or follow the podcast on iHeartRadio.
