Expert resigns from teen social media ban tech trial advisory board

Australia’s 6.5 million dollar young social media ban on technology trial is an expert in which transparency and concerns about its first findings. Other individuals and groups also mislead the process.
On Friday, the age assurance technology attempt assigned by the state found that age security can be done in Australia in a “special, solid and effective” way. These findings, which will soon strengthen Australia’s plan to promote the “world’s first” ban, were based on trial results that were not yet public.
Tim Levy, General Manager Children’s Security Technology Company QoriaIt was not listed on the website of the hearing for the Advisory Board of approximately 20 members on Monday.
Orum I think that this experiment is some questions about the construction and process everywhere, Le said Levy. Crirase Monday afternoon.
From Levy’s point of view, age safety technology is promising. However, the experience of serving at the advisory board that came together several times to discuss the progress of the hearing was that there were several problems that were never handled.
Levy, with the rest of the board of directors, also provided access to the preliminary findings of the hearing in the media. The results surprised him. Instead of results or statistics, the report was in fact a policy response, not to the evaluation of technologies as promised.
“Many traps have been detected… and the first test results reported that a very problematic future for age assurance technology suggests High error ratio and bypasses. And still, the findings were very positive. “
Levy had first -hand experience with a hearing. Company Qoria presented its software for the test as part of the experiment that evaluates “parent control” products.
The preliminary findings of the essay were more critical for parental control systems that found “limited evidence ında that they could be effective and safe and found“ limited evidence ğı that children could cope with their technological capacity as they matured.
Levy was shocked by this result because he claimed that Qoria’s product was not tested during the trial. Im We prepared to be tested, they did not touch our product, ve he said, and questioning how much the parental control technologies have been tested.
Orum I don’t understand the procedures they evaluate any parent control, ”he said.
John Pae, President of the Australian Australia Group Electronic Rights Group Electronic Rights Group, also worked at the Advisory Committee and questioned the information version of the information.
“Why aren’t important test data open to the public? How well these technologies work, have been really better since 2023, and where is the proof of it?” He said in a media statement on Friday.
Pae said that the report found how the hearing was satisfied with the personal information of the participants of the hearing, and that “the risk of violation of confidentiality increased due to unnecessary and disproportionate gathering and retention of data”.
Justin Warren, the founder of Technology Consultancy Company Pivotnine, believed that the preliminary results had an unquestionable confidence in evidence.
“We do not even have a summary statistics about the average or median accuracy rates, incorrect positive rates and how many systems are evaluated to meet the levels of ready -made technology” said Record.
Hearing spokesman Tony Allen said that the questions about the details of the hearing and the fact that technology was effective will be answered in the report that should be given to the government at the end of July.
“I am afraid that all your questions will be answered with a full report within a few weeks. For now, we only publish 12 titles observations,” he said.
