The Albanese government is advancing the Digital Duty of Care bill, which would set expectations for how social media platforms manage harmful online content. Across reporting from multiple outlets, the focus is also on the government’s proposed “my feed, my way” initiative, described as giving Australians more control over what appears on their social media feeds.
The articles explain that the initiative is intended to allow users to choose or adjust elements of their feed, rather than relying solely on default platform settings. Sources frame this as part of the broader duty-of-care approach, linking user controls to platform responsibilities around safety and risk.
While the outlets cover the same core proposal, they emphasize different practical questions. Some reporting concentrates on what users can change and how that control would work in practice, while others link the policy to the bill’s wider regulatory goals. The common thread is that the reforms are designed to increase both platform accountability and user influence over the online experience.
