@punterspolitics: The Digital Duty of Care Bill, According to Two Experts Who Actually Read It. This week, we bring in two experts to actually break down the Duty of Care bill. "Angertainment" author Ed Coper explains how algorithms exploit human psychology to manipulate us, and lawyer James Glissan, who's actually read the bill, walks through what it really says, what's overblown, and where the genuine problems are.

Hearb :

for a wedge issue to be effective as a manipulation technique it's still needs to be a real issue

jag :

Benjamin, thank you for all the work you’re doing us regular punters

Kebabosaur :

Fair play I did share the small clip with some friends talking about how clueless that person was and now after watching this I’ve realised I’ve been used as a pawn to demonstrate angertainment and it was successful. Bravo mate 👏

Michael :

it starts with protecting ppl from eating disorders and before you know it they're deeming certain dissenting opinions to be "harmful". there is so much wrong with this bill. bottom line is the govt shouldn't have a control over the algorithm even if it is indirect. the govt is not benevolent. ander the bill what they deem to be harmful for adults is "violence". so they give that directive to a social media company and what does that mean? no fighting videos? and as an adult why cant I see footage from a war zone etc? and so the govt can be constantly creeping what for example "violent" content they want banned by just specifying it in a press conference or indirect back channel under the threat of an enormous fking fine and ofc the social media company will comply.

Jacko :

What a legend Conrad

Dan Spruyt :

That’s an excel spreadsheet on the phone message too

LemonscentedLemons🍋🌻🔪❤️‍🔥 :

Yeah I agree with James on this one, the definitions are too broad. Introduces legislation with a lot of risk that doesn't really combat the problem it's designed to. Same thing happened with the Age verification stuff in gaming recently, introduces an inconvenience, doesn't stop kids accessing games they shouldn't be able to.

Michael :

legally say.... "for now". Quick change of position & away we go

Prestige :

Love your work brother! ❣️

Allinjest :

If your rage bait will then you’ve caught my Fish. I know that doesn’t get any sense, but you get the point.

Wassim :

leaving a comment to help your algorithm. I think the issue for me is leaving ANY power to adjust the algorithm to big tech. I feel the government of the day benefits from lobbying from big tech/business to allow or disallow certain content. we've seen it here with gina/Pauline, and overseas with tpusa Trump and Israel.

Stinky :

Australian institute?

Sonny Murray :

most ppl don't think mate... I play in the credit reporting space and the way the legislation has been written proves those who wrote it have no idea how the world works for most Aussies. thanks for your podcast mate.

Bread :

all the absolute worst people hating is a sign that the message is getting through. they're starting to see you as a legitimate threat to their corrupt business model of bleeding taxpayers to fund multinational corporations

David Brookes :

So grifter is someone now who disagrees with you [Like][Like][Like][Like]

BuckinHell :

That’s mental. ‘Journo’s’ can’t handle someone actually doing what they’re supposed to do, research and share their findings, not worry about who’s paying them

kirstyreeves260 :

punter Labor did a backflip on their election promise around CTG, negative gearing ect to take the heat away from taxing the gas & corporations what make billions of the every day aussie…now we have the “merchant fee from banks that can’t be passed on” that only works raises costs for small to medium businesses…banks still make billions…we are taken for fools every day of the week & the closer you get the bigger a rabbit they will pull out of the hat to distract everyday people - ( one nation & immigration taking our jobs & homes is a prime example) we need a revolution

kevinak23 :

The goverment already uses threats of fines as a tool to get social media companies to do their censorship. Distancing themselves from the physical action doesn’t mean they won’t have a say.

We’re all mad here 🇦🇺 :

Divide and conquer - the oldest trick in the book.
