people LOVE getting austere and disciplinarian with kids [very very broadly defined as 0-17] and the internet. no one in government knows what it was like growing up online.
i think in general, people seek out what they want to see when they're ready to see it. being artificially restricted:
a) does not work. anyone worth their salt knows how to get around blocks
and
b) causes more harm than good. give people the basic respect of being able to access information freely. people with a shitty household would be at even more of a disadvantage, not being able to escape online and find like-minded communities. [of course that's a pro to the ghouls pushing this]
These bill almost always exist to and do make everything worse for such kids/folks (kids are folks too!)
Edit: and some folks are fucks
