As a parent, you should be the one making sure to educate your child about the internet. If necessary, learn how to block websites on your router.
The governments job isn’t to require an ID to access the entire internet for something that a parent should be doing.
I’ve had more bad experiences trying to enjoy new things in new communities than good experiences. I think that is more to just how shit my luck is, but it still sucks when I’m just trying to enjoy something with others online. :-/
Seriously. I clear my cookies on Firefox exit because I don’t want their shit on my computer if it isn’t needed.
This would cause me to see them every single damn time.
That is what you signed up for when having a child. The way society in general is not doing the right thing doesn’t matter.
There are better ways to mitigate the dangers of the internet other than the literal worst option, blanket ID for internet access. Which is what we really know is coming, which is why they are fighting so hard to pass it every other week it seems.
Look at what they do for kids already and ask yourself if you truly find them to be doing this in the best interests of the parents or the kids?
This will lead to darker roads for everyone. It’s not my fault, or your fault, that people don’t know how to raise children in the modern era.
How about the government bring back computer classes and make material on what you are saying? That would be the simpler approach, right? Educate everyone on HOW to navigate the web?
But no. Let’s always go with the worst option, because it’s really NOT about the kids.
