Summary
Australia is poised to introduce a groundbreaking Digital Duty of Care bill, forcing social media giants to take legal responsibility for the harm their algorithms and designs cause—like holding tech companies to the same safety standards as food or transport industries. While critics label it “Orwellian censorship,” supporters argue the real danger lies in unchecked algorithms that amplify extremism and misinformation. The bill empowers users to choose between personalized feeds and chronological views, shifting control back to individuals and challenging Big Tech’s grip on our digital lives.
