If you put the concerns of your children over the rest of the population that's selfish. Also how about some numbers that aren't swayed by covid

How exactly are parents putting the needs of their children over that of the rest of the population? Or are you saying that societies shouldn’t cater to children on any level beyond a minor inconvenience? Do the school buses making you have to stop driving your car bother you that much? Or are we building too many parks somewhere? And if so, where?

Children literally are the future society. Making them a priority is more selfless than making today's adults a priority. What does covid have to do with the 10+ years of data I referenced? And even if the data does skew up during covid, how does that make it less of a problem?

  nonchildren are also future society, unless every adult immediately dies, so deprioritizing them in favor of someone related to yourself seems selfish to me if it's just some random kid and you have none of your own, such professions of selflessness might be more convincing

It’s unclear when Google started using it as well, but this announcement suggests it was around 2013 — noting that “recently” the company started using “encrypted “fingerprints” of child sexual abuse images into a cross-industry database” (which describes PhotoDNA)." This is what I'm talking about with paranoid parents. I'm sick of your "save the children" bullshit
