If this is the case, why is the issue of child _privacy_ (and the effect of losing it upon passing of this bill) not considered as part of the "concerns" for online safety (and carefully omitted as part of the risk assessment)? Th

I have a question: what does it mean for the _users_ of messaging applications? If the OSB passes am I still within my rights to PGP encrypt my messages before sending them?

Indeed: it is worthwhile to note the nefarious absence of the role of privacy in the laid out "risk assessment" of children's usage of a service, in part 3, chapter 2, point (6) of the bill. https://bills.parliamen

It may help to realise that what you are looking at is some projection of a chaotic process. As in other views of chaos such as the Mandelbrot set, one can gain a sense of awe by realising the intricate beauty of the interplay between order

To be totally honest, I am fine with the situation you just described. The only argument in favour of IP is "but what about the economics of the seeds?" i.e. "but how will corporations get rich without it?" and my answer
