“Users who are 18 or over will have full access to the platform. For users who are 16 or over, but under 18, we’ll make adult-appropriate content inaccessible, and we’ll disable features like direct messaging”. Which is kinda sad, cos the only ppl my 16 yo directly msgs on bsky are scientists
Was wondering if this was re other codes for adult content but BlueSky's post here makes clear it is a response to the social media ban. bsky.social/about/blog/0...

Participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme will in most cases no longer be able to appeal their total amount of funding support to any external review body, executives have confirmed, after revelations about automation to be introduced to the organisation.
The minister for disability and the NDIS, Jenny McAllister, and National Disability Insurance Agency bosses were peppered with questions at Senate estimates on Thursday about changes to the way NDIS support plans will be generated under a new planning model coming into effect from mid-2026.

Information collected includes the older person’s name, date of birth, contact details (address, email, phone), demographic information (e.g. gender), identifiers (e.g. Medicare number, healthcare identifier, aged care ID), applications, consents and supporters
In estimates today the Department confessed to me that older people are having their My Aged Care data stolen by providers for use in sales calls.
This is aged care under Labor: jacking up out-of-pocket costs then letting telemarketers loose to gouge vulnerable people even more.
