We want to force the entire world to block information that we don’t like (says the small government club)

Good luck with that

Firstly, the EU is not about small government, so half of the joke is lost already. Secondly, rampant misinformation vs. factual information about abortion…

But sure, it’s all the same.

This is violently anti-intellectual freedom.

Factual information doesn’t “harm children.” If your kid isn’t ready to learn about the world, it’s your job to do some parenting.

The fact that these AGs won’t be using a bill like this to remove right wing propaganda from the internet tells you this is just a censorship tool, at best.

How many children did you rise? Just asking, because you seem to know how easy it is.

Slowly and slowly, it feels like parents are having less and less responsibility—and therefore control—over their children’s lives. Information is not a problem—if there’s something the parent doesn’t want the kid to see it up to them to enforce that, not the government.

Is a parent shitty if, for example, their kids see stuff on the device another kid brought to school and shows around? Or when they visit a friend and their older sibling shows the kids something?

You all sound like 20 year olds with little life experience who believe you know how parenting works, when in actuality you have 0 idea about it.
