Fjordheim Digital Trust and Integrity Act of 2024 - Fjordheim

Rationale

Fjordheim builds trust in what governs and connects it: safer internet rules, elections funded publicly, accountable press, real AI safety oversight, and stronger legal duties protecting children online, no more self-regulation. Trust that's earned, not assumed.

Party	Seats	Vote	Reason
A Better Fjordheim	6	No	ABF supports targeted protections against illegal content and genuine online harms, but this bill goes too far by imposing strict AI licensing and broad social-media controls that risk undermining innovation and digital freedom.
ASTER Proposer	20	Yes	No reason given
Democratic Liberal Platform	5	Yes	We can live with this bill
Libertarian Alliance	2	No	Libertarian Alliance stands firmly against this proposal. This is just another way for our current government to control our lives with the excuse of safety. We are losing internet freedom, we are losing innovation in technology and we are stagnating as a country and economy.
