    To add to it: Why do we need to protect children that arent ours from things their parents are supposed to protect them from?

    Weird way to shift job tasks around.

      It’s praying on the tech illiteracy of idiots. There are several pieces of software that can be used to locally censor the internet for minors, and they’re very affordable, and I bet free versions (open source?) probably also exist.

      When I was a wee lad, there were “internet safety guides” being shown to kids and parents including :

      • Don’t post personal information online
      • Do not use your real name on the internet
      • Do not give images of your ID to anyone online

      But then, facebook asked for people’s fucking IDs and real names, and people just fucking forked it over. GOOD JOB DICKHEADS.
