    “Part of this statement is a promise to examine age restrictions when it comes to AI use, as well as restrictions or limits on children’s ability to access VPNs

    This seemingly unflushable proposal to restrict VPNs is surely the most important part of the article?

    Infinite scroll is one of the biggest cancers of the modern digital era. I’d be so happy if this ended on all major platforms.

      Why? I don’t want to be inconvienced because you can’t manage yourself.

      Why should I have to hit refresh or next page.

      This is a you problem.

        Can’t have infinite scroll when you run out of content to scroll through. /s

        I mean, sure. It’s easier to do it on them since they usually have a lot of open source apps that allow disabling infinite scroll. I believe it’d be easier for the EU to regulate the major platforms because the number of platforms would be just a handful, which is easier to enforce.

        I use the lemmy web because it doesn’t have infinite scroll, and the version 1.0.0 will allow to select the number of posts the user wishes to see on his feed. Looks pretty cool, you can see here: voyager.lemmy.ml

    Ah, so they’re just using this to sneak in a VPN ban

    First they came for TikTok, then they installed the age gates, now they’re attacking infinite scroll?!?

    What will the libs come for next?
