2 legislatures

Articles

4 changes

Rationale

We, as a nation, should be ensuring that our citizens are free yet safe. Changes to our data privacy laws, including no more ID collection and heavier fines, will ensure that our citizens are safe from identity fraud and scams. There is no longer a need for curfew nor strict alcohol policy.

Proposed Changes

	Law	Previous	Proposed
1	Internet Freedom	Moderate regulation (illegal content removed; platforms must verify age; data rules enforced)	Light-touch regulation (net neutrality; limited takedown orders for serious crime only)
2	Data Privacy & Digital Rights	Basic data protection (consent required; breach notification; opt-out rights)	Strict data rights (right to deletion; algorithmic transparency; heavy fines for violations)
3	Youth Curfew Policy	Limited curfew (Fri–Sat 00:00–04:00; exceptions for work/school events)	No youth curfew (standard public order laws only)
4	Alcohol Regulation	Strict regulation (age 21; high excise; retail 10:00–20:00; public drinking banned)	Liberal policy (age 18; moderate tax; late opening permitted; public zones allowed)
