This needs to be stopped and a focus on the school system needs to be introduced. It's not the young that created social media, they need to be taught how to utilise it correctly, not blocked","additional_details":"Trying to enforce a nationwide lock on the internet is a huge step to authoritarianism. Australia and Canada are both forcing this bill through attempting to lock down their tax payers to a heavily censored state. The way this needs to be dealt with is education on how, what and why. The internet is a tool we all use in the modern world yet it's not taught within schools. It needs to be addressed before we're all locked down and being monitored by the state.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":8,"created_at":"2026-06-20T18:48:27.032Z","updated_at":"2026-07-17T08:54:56.070Z","rejected_at":"2026-07-17T08:54:56.073Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-06-20T19:37:50.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"You may wish to sign these petitions which call for similar actions: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/757131\r\nhttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/757233"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
