    I speak or write the same tone with everyone, and like I said, they blocked me, I can't go back on what they said, it says "profile unavailable". This discussion is therefore pointless.
    That being said, the accusation is baseless and disrespectful, especially in the age of the internet where you can just look at one's profile and see what's going on.
    It's pretty obvious that the person wasn't interested in the facts, because they were easy to uncover here.

    @presidiet @Karolina @EUCommission When someone brings in things like gender, looks, family etc.. into an unrelated discussion to try to make me look bad, that's usually when I know that it's time to leave. In my experience, I was never able to have a constructive discussion with someone that behaves that way.

      @EUCommission

      Seriously?

      Your website commission.europa.eu is an Amazon CloudFront distribution. The TLS certificate is issued by Amazon.

      Every visitor clicking the URL in this post (including the young Europeans you claim to protect!) delivers personal data to a US server, under US law.

      You cannot legislate what you cannot practice.

      Enough with empty rhetoric. It is time for a "#RegimeChange" at the #EuropeanCommission.

        @presidiet @Karolina @EUCommission Do you condone that kind of behavior?
        We can disagree as much as we want on the subject itself, but one thing we should all agree on is that it's not okay to use aspects that we don't choose like gender or skin color to make someone look bad.
        I will always stand firm by that.
        And if you condone it, then I will not proceed to have a discussion with you. I dislike just "leaving", I apologize, but I just do not wish to get accused that way again, I've had enough.

            In 2003 technology wasn't quite ready to feed us endless streams of brain rot individually tuned for maximum addiction. 200 badger mushrooms a day would have hit differently I think.

            Apart from that I agree about parenting and commercialization.

            @notsoloud IMO it is mostly coming from commercialization as social networks and other platforms have direct monetary incentive to drag people into constant consumption while milking their attention and data.

            Adults are suffering from this and maybe even more so because they are less used to this constant avalanche of information than younger people growing up with smartphone in their hand. I'd treat it more like smoking problem which needs to be tackled for everyone rather than prioritize building ineffective and questionable fences for the young and when these don't work - keep adding more barbed wire.

            Also it is not like the most kids (and adults!) would otherwise consume classical literature πŸ™‚ For example, just about everywhere things like teen crime, teen pregnancies, etc are on the decline and the most likely explanation is exactly this. So maybe it is not that bad if some kids now choose to watch TikTok or play online games instead of sniffing glue or joining gangs πŸ™‚

            And let's not forget the forbidden fruit effect. If kids want something, they'll get it. If they can't get it in more decent sources where some moderation exists, they'll find it in darker places - along with other things.

              @EUCommission It is a better idea to instead push for social medias that are design to be safe, for instance mastodon. Agegating just have to many problems.

                @EUCommission the best protection would be to ban Meta and TikTok in Europe. That would solve 90% of the problems immediately.

                  This is happening offline as well.

                  Shall everyone verify with their ID that they can go outside?

                      @EUCommission Bullying is bullying, regardless of where it happens. Same with sexual abuse. Educate kids. Teach them so they can grow up to be resilient adults. Instead of turning the entire EU into a bizarre Orwellian dystopia supposedly tO pRoTeCt tHe cHilDreN.

                      Take the money you're spending on this bullshit and start spending it on mental healthcare.

                          @EUCommission y'all are swinging and missing with this one. There are so many questions about this protection I have that anyone who has been a teen with internet could come up with (or, really, anyone who knows what teens get up to) that y'all have not even addressed.

                          It honestly reads like an attempt to introduce means of control and not a real attempt at providing safety.

                            we are testing our open beta for a recommendation engine and an optimized UX for users. super important to make social spaces more safe. but we also need tor address how to make spaces like Fediverse also interesting for mainstream audiences. Australia shows that excluding under 16 years old from social media is just tackling symptoms. people will always find workarounds. its not a longterm solution, especially not working towards digital sovereignty for people.

                                  @EUCommission DSA is a great piece of legislation. Its weakness is that it relies on you to enforce it. Laws that are not enforced don't protect anyone.

                                    @phnt @EUCommission does anyone even listen to corporate media anymore other than old people?

                                      @iju To make Internet safe for β€œyoung Europeans (aged 16–29)”... let’s force the businesses check the age of everyone who looks under 30?

                                      No. This does not sound like a plan. There must be better ideas?

                                      I'm not sure what you're saying, but you may have understood me wrong.

                                      The internet is damaging due to dark patterns of the social media companies, and their reckless use of their platform for scam advertisements, etc.

                                      This is not a problem that can be solved with age verifications, but by enforcing stricter standards on the companies. People have right to safe environment when they're 18, 31, and 80.

                                          @EUCommission why don't you try to limit corruption, poverty, and relations with USA and israel? You will save more kids doing that, if you truly care bout them. Of course it's only an excuse to control the population.

                                          Fuck #ChatControl !!!
