    We are now being told we need Digital ID, age verification and KYC to "protect kids" at OS level but the simplest solution is the best one. Hear me out:

    Keep computers in common areas (kitchen or living room) and delay smartphones. We shouldn't trade everyone's privacy for a problem that can be solved with parenting, love, explaining dangers to kids and stricter corporate accountability.

    How hard is this? What am I missing?

    It *is* hard going against the grain. Well worth it, but to constantly be the only parent making your kids wait until 13 for their first mobile phone, you have to put up with a lot of bullshit from every other parent.

      @nixCraft

      The naive belief that your rules in your house apply anywhere else. My first porn not age appropriate was at my aunts house, it was mixed with age appropriate VHS tapes and we kids were sent to the TV room to give the grown-ups space to talk.

        @nixCraft lots of parents just hand their babies/toddlers/children tablets or phones as the modern version of laudanum.

                @nixCraft Could also, y'know, hold the people actually harming children (like facbook with their predatory & manipulative algorithmic feeds) accountable, instead of attacking privacy.

                    @nixCraft It's never about protecting kids. That's just the excuse they use to manipulate voters and the public.

                      But eliminating privacy is the whole point. The Epstein Class has no interest in protecting children. They’re only about protecting themselves and extending their control.

                        Kids also deserve privacy when using the family computer. I don't believe that computers in common areas solve this.
                        But parenting, love and explaining will.

                          @nixCraft be a good parent & everything will be fine. Keep your children away from phone or computer (specially phone) until they are not 18+.

                            @nixCraft I think you are missing the fact that putting a smartphone in each child's hand generates revenue for someone and substituting that with affection and care for the children will put the last nail in the coffin of the economy, which legislators would want you to believe is not collapsing. Welcome to the dystopia.

                                @nixCraft what if we (and I know this sounds wild) let people work from home; they could do this thing where they have more time to be present with and teach their kids! We could go even further and make *gasp* small walkable communities so kids and parents spend less time commuting and more time community-ing. Rather than constantly slapping security band aids on 😩

                                    I will delete my entire online presence,move to the woods and become a feral cryptid before I ever give social media my ID.

                                    Anyway, I agree. Parents need to parent their own fucking children.

                                      We are now being told we need Digital ID, age verification and KYC to "protect kids" at OS level but the simplest solution is the best one. Hear me out:

                                      Keep computers in common areas (kitchen or living room) and delay smartphones. We shouldn't trade everyone's privacy for a problem that can be solved with parenting, love, explaining dangers to kids and stricter corporate accountability.

                                      How hard is this? What am I missing?

                                      @nixCraft Censorship is infantilizing, especially when it's applied to adults who simply want to keep a modicum of privacy.

                                        @nixCraft there are a lot of people who can't and should not have been parents who will not take responsibility for raising another human being.

                                        I say this from experience.

                                          You aren't missing anything.

                                          the entirety of the global digital ID drive is just a massive data grab dressed up as an innocent child.

                                          It's revolting in it's depravity.
