Kinda agree - but for me that's up to the parents. Control your kids devices, restrict them, educate them etc.
Else, how do you want to control this? Mandatory identification on the whole internet? No thanks...
I've seen a lot of things as a teenager which I shouldn't have seen (gore videos of mexican cartels, ISIS etc.), and I'm sure that this has done some mental damage, even though I can't exactly pinpoint what kind. But still, if the alternative is total bureaucratic control over the whole internet with my personal ID being identified everywhere, just to save some uncontrolled kids from watching things they shouldn't...I don't know.

EDIT: to clarify, i do agree that kids should be protected from harmful content. just don't think that ID checks or scanning my own data are a net positive.
