Letβs introduce a national digital id to stop the kids accessing shit online. And to ensure that we need to make it linked to ur government id.
Edit: spelling
Letβs not be pieces of shit using βfor the kidsβ to destroy basic privacy rights online.
But think of the children they must be protected we canβt possibly expect parents to be responsible so the government must step in to ensure their safety.
Yeah thereβs no way that could go wrong or be exploited by unscrupulous actors. Maybe parents should actually parent their kids? Extreme, I know.
What about we introduce more control from teachers and parents about what devices kids have access to, and give them some supervision too while weβre at it?
I propose we take all parents, line them up, and start slapping them in the face until they stop being so fucking stupid.
Alternatively, and more realistically, we accept that gen z and gen alpha are just lost causes and massively invest in schools so maybe in a couple of generations we can break the cycle of stupidity.
Lol as if these generations are doing anything different than they were doing before. Kids have always lied about their age to do adult things. Not saying itβs healthy, just like it wasnβt healthy for kids to get their older brother to buy cigs, but itβs not a unique problem and these generations are far from a βlost causeβ.
That will never work. The people canβt be trusted they must be controlled with an iron fist of justice and glory.
So people canβt be trusted, but you want to give control of everything to one person/group? Sounds contradictory to me.
So every person can be identified on whatever sites they do whatever they post.
Thatβs China. Not America
You could very easily build the system to perform the age check without logging it to the userβs ID since the check only needs to be performed once to create an account and just block anyone without one from seeing any of the content.
Estonia has digital ID based services and they arenβt China. In fact China despises them because theyβve made the cutting edge in digital public services without having to compromise citizen privacy, which makes China look even worse for going out of their way to invade citizen privacy when it isnβt even necessary to offer the same safety measures and services.
Would you give your kids blank plane tickets for them to go anywhere in the world alone ?
I guess not, then donβt give them a internet connected device without surveillance. Itβs YOUR responsibility to keep YOUR kids safe not mine. I donβt want to be forced to give MY ID online for YOUR kids to be loose on the internet as much as I donβt want to see your kids roaming alone anywhere they feel like.
