Tech Giants Face New Online Accountability | Perth News

Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description

Big tech is about to face serious new rules as the government pushes for a digital duty of care—mandatory protections for users online, with massive fines looming if platforms fail. Key ideas include giving users control over their feeds and ending algorithm-driven content designed to maximize engagement. The Communications Minister is making it clear these giants will pay the price if they ignore user safety. But opposition parties are cautious, demanding to see the full legislation and raising concerns about censorship, while independents want even deeper scrutiny of algorithms—not just user opt-ins. This could be one of the most heated tech regulation debates yet.
