There are a lot of GOP-controller legislatures in the USA pushing through so-called “child protection” laws, but there’s a toll in the form of impacting people’s rights and data privacy. Most of these bills involve requiring adults to upload a copy of their photo ID.

      Oh I’m sorry. I should be more clear. You don’t. You don’t verify people are adults. the capability to verify that is the same capability you need to oppress.

      You enable parents to have the right tools to affect what they want for their children. But it’s the parent’s responsibility to let their kids use cell phones independently without a VPN without internet controls.

      It’s on the parents to parent their children. If they want to control what their children sees then the parents need to control what the children’s devices can do. We can’t turn the entire world into Disneyland because a parent doesn’t want to deny their child the internet.
