> The Trump administration says it will raise concerns with Australia and other trading partners over Labor’s proposed rules requiring platforms to remove harmful content and let users opt out of algorithmically personalised feeds. The laws could impose fines of more than $100m on big tech, while Australia says it has the right to protect parents and children.
