It's always security when someone wants to take our freedom away. Always security...

Not always. It can also be about the children.

About keeping the children safe

Not really, it’s more about children not being exposed to things usually. Hence starting with age requirements for porn and they move forward to other things.

"Protecting the children from harmful content and predators", "protecting people from terrorists and criminals", "protecting users from hackers" are all forms of security, and are all used as arguments to erode freedoms.

It all boils down to: just give up this bit of freedom so we can keep everyone safe.
