Our children’s future is at risk. Today many kids are getting addicted to social media platforms like Instagram and are being exposed to sexualized or semi-pornographic content at a very young age. This is affecting their mental health, increasing anxiety and depression, and shaping their mindset in unhealthy ways. Strict action is needed. The Government of India should enforce stronger laws to block pornography websites and regulate harmful content online. Children should not be allowed on social media before the age of 16, and strong age-verification systems must be implemented. Let’s come together as parents and citizens to demand a safer digital environment for our kids. Protect their innocence, protect their mental health, and protect the future of India’s next generation. #ProtectOurKids #SaferInternet #DigitalSafety

It has come to my attention that my name and image have been maliciously manipulated through artificial intelligence tools and circulated online to spread false and misleading information. This is a deeply concerning development that threatens not only the integrity of our democratic discourse but also my personal reputation and values of a leader committed to truth. I am a firm believer of championing innovation and the responsible advancement of technology in Ghana and across the continent. However, I condemn the use of AI and other digital tools to distort facts, mislead the public, or sow confusion among citizens. I call on the Cyber Security Authority of Ghana and all relevant agencies to act swiftly and decisively in investigating these matters, identifying the perpetrators, and implementing stronger safeguards against such abuses. The safety of our digital space, the credibility of our public figures, and the trust of the Ghanaian people must be protected at all costs. Let it be clear: while we embrace the future of technology, we stand firmly against its weaponization for misinformation and deception.

NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield for America 2025: Protect Families, Preserve Online Freedom Families want support to protect their kids online. Today, we launched NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield for America, offering various policy solutions to federal and state lawmakers that want to adopt meaningful and lawful solutions for families online, covered exclusively by Ben Brody at Punchbowl News. THE PROBLEM: While parents and guardians try to adapt their families to emerging digital tools, they’ve consistently expressed to both technology services and lawmakers that they’d like help. However, some policymakers across the U.S. have responded with laws that violate the core, protected right of Americans to free expression. NetChoice has successfully halted most of these laws. OUR SOLUTION: NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield for America provides a policy plan for lawmakers on both the state and federal level. Working together, we can stop digital criminals, protect kids and empower parents online while upholding the rights of Americans. Over the next year, we will be releasing various tools and guides for parents and policymakers to empower them to protect families and preserve core freedoms in digital spaces. “Families deserve real solutions that truly protect kids. That’s why NetChoice created the Digital Safety Shield for America—to give lawmakers constitutional tools that stop predators, empower parents and safeguard children online. Instead of unconstitutional, quick political fixes, this framework funds law enforcement, strengthens legal protections and equips parents and kids with the resources they need to thrive in the digital age,” said Amy Bos, NetChoice Director of State & Federal Affairs. Bos continued: “Americans and our families should be able to embrace digital tools with confidence while knowing our rights will be upheld in online spaces. NetChoice’s Digital Safety Shield helps lawmakers strike that appropriate balance.”

#Ethiopia: University students to teach for one year before graduation as part of new initiative, education minister says University students will be required to teach for one year before graduation as part of a new initiative, Education Minister Birhanu Nega (PhD) has announced. "A program named 'Ethiopian University Service' has been prepared," he said, adding that it will allow students to "serve the community in their field of study before graduation."
