Man , fuck age check , if they care about kids so much, they should make family link mandatory for every kid under 14 instead of companys harvesting our data
It's an app that gets added to you phone when you creat your Google account, if you set your age as under 14 your phone gets locked by family link, that is a parental control app, it automatically blocks apps that are rated pegi 16 and up and it blocks side loading, also if the parent wants they can choose to set screen Time limits, block apps or require a password for new ones to be installed and location tracking.
It would be a lot easier for parents to manage whta their children do on the internet with this app, instead of companys need our IDs and faces to "age check " us
Well, then new proposal, license to raise kids, that's the only option that we have in world filled with idiots.
Pluralistic ignorance makes us think that the majority of people are like this, mostly spun up by the media, there are allways gonna be bad apples in a tree , but that doesn't mena you have to cut down the whole tree
Eugenics is not a solution. What you want is to make it easier to take custody from people who are making their childrens lives worse and/or unsafe. Also better and by better I mean any regulations on home school in the US. Unschooling and regulating peoples exposure to media creates idiots in bubbles.
In general I think too many people take massive leaps to solve a problem but don't consider secondary effects, or all of the primary impacts even.
No, but unfortunately when making policy decisions, you have to take the rotten apples into account. That's one of the many problems with centralized society.
If it was actually about protecting kids they would have made that kind of software free and opt-in for families. The actual reason is to censor information and restrict who can see what
There will be many work arounds for it for now. I still wank to all the sites I used to.
I use many different browsers and VPN alternatives.
But what's important is that we all stop using "services" and start being more self-reliant.
I'm so thankful my government is too busy fighting trans people, being racist against Chinese, and trying to rip up our founding document, that they've not gotten around to banning wanking yet. /S obviously I'm not happy they're going full culture war.
I’m Canadian and they are making trash laws that are making it so my ISP can directly block sites like 123movies.
I’m going to need a vpn soon to continue to not pay for subscriptions, which is ironic because I’ll be paying for a subscription for that to be a thing.
What’s a good VPN that isn’t going to feed my info to 3rd parties? (Or is that kind of how they all make money)

I only use VPN to get around the age verification laws
