Collective Shout, a small but vocal lobby group, has long called for a mandatory internet filter that would prevent access to adult content for everyone in Australia. Its director, Melinda Tankard Reist, was recently appointed to the stakeholder advisory board for the government’s age assurance technology trial before the under-16s social media ban comes into effect in Australia in December.

Keep the pressure on.

Collective Shout got them to change their position and they're a small group. We are legion, as the kids say

Feels like we're going back to the 90s/00s "Christian parents against video games" moral panic era. But this time, they're being appeased more heavily.

I despise conservatism. It destroys everything it touches.

And there's way fewer Christians nowadays
