Mostly because afaik the law prohibits Google as it is from delisting news content specifically like Facebook is doing now, so it was either efforts like this to last-ditch prevent the legislation from passing or face a complete shutdown in Australia.
- g_p 6y agoI wonder if this is the start of a course-correction that recognises search/basic discovery of information is probably "infrastructure", and that (perhaps) large social media platforms are becoming "public places". The way this is being brought about (the linking part) seems flawed, but perhaps if this goes ahead, it will be an interesting way to see how a future world might look where some of the damnage done by the "internet" (well, its business models) in recent years is forcibly reversed?
