It should be the parents' job to regulate what kind of content their children consume on the internet, not the government's.
Parents aren't generally capable of that, I've learned.
That's good because children are much smarter than government and their parents when it comes to internet.
I work with kids and that's much less true than you would think lmao.
I think it is now thanks to how devices and operating systems have evolved. But growing up in the era where internet and home computers were relatively ubiquitous, but clunky and slow, meant that most Gen Y were pretty good with them IMO.
Who you work as? Maybe sampling bias.
Who I work as? If only being a child was a profession lmao
Go easy, English isn't their first language.
