The Age-Checked Internet Has Arrived

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I legitimately dont understand who supports this. Who are these parents that can't parent their kids properly? It's so incredibly easy these days.
So instead of handling shitty parenting we restrict adults and with surveillance. Make it make sense.
There are SO MANY parents that are not willing to teach and monitor their kids online safety. I would even say most parents don't take that responsibility themselves.
Totally in agreement. I think a bigger part of the issue is most people are completely tech illiterate. People can’t tell a computer from a monitor anymore and then we expect them to outsmart a kid with nothing better to do than stare at a screen for hours on end who will no doubt figure out ways around things. There has to be some feeling on the parents part of defeat. If only the politicians knew what the fuck they were doing we might get actual regulations for engineers to implement proper controls. The percentage of parents attempting to monitor their children appropriately while also having enough tech knowledge has to be low.
With you till the kids. Kids seem less tech literate than before. They can us tech but have no idea how anything works.
