  I think politicians are also a health crisis.

    Enthusiastically upvoted. Surely some gentle non-partisan humor is acceptable even on HN?

    Probably passed this bill to convince their spouses not to go digging into their browser history.

  That makes no sense. Self esteem(etc) is affected by instagram not porn lol

      "low self-esteem, eating disorders and an increase in problematic sexual activity" <- by adding eating disorders they basically saying it's girls (young boys with eating disorders to improve body shape are statistical error), this implies that girls want to look like pornstars which is false since none of them look up to pornstars but they do look up to and follow thousands of girls on instagram etc with fake happy lives and slimming filters etc
