Australia bans social media for under 16s
(www.theverge.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
And "banning children", wait, I mean forcing every adult to verify who they say they are online accomplishes what?
Oh, that's right, a massive tracking database for any bad actor to use.
If your children get into shit, it's your fault for not raising them right. I got into some shit as a kid, and had friends that got into more/less shit.
I watched those fuckups raise their kids, and they learned from their own childhood experience and chose to guide their children how to use the internet properly. To understand how it works, the risks, etc.
You can't bubble wrap the world. The idiots (myself included) will always find a way around such safetyism, and in the process you'll be harming everyone else.
Are we not already subject to massive tracking databases anyway?
So then it is okay to add another? ;-)
If the positive effects of it outweigh the negative effects then maybe.
