- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

But in most cases, it is, because most adults are not that technically inclined to get around the logins. Sure there are some tech savvy ones who will bypass it. And maybe a few kids who will use their parents' accounts rather than just bypassing the logins but it's still the family accessing the information, but for the majority, it does work as a registry. And though it's only on a few categories of sites now, the categories inevitably will expand. It's not just porn, but info on reproductive and gender healthcare, LGBTQ+ dating, and many other subjects that "children must me protected from", but really they want to know who's gay, looking for abortions or transgender healthcare or information about whatever other rights their government is trying to force them to give up.
Yes. And perhaps, given time, accessing the wrong version of certain sensitive historic events could even be tracked that way.
