each person has the individual right to not have pictures of their abuse posted in public.
and as a society we dont need statistical evidence for every single law we come up with. some things we just know are harmful to victims because of common sense.
- 127361 3y agoNo, that's the same "common sense" we used to justify discrimination and other abuses towards people who were different in some way, e.g. by race, or by sexual preference (e.g. homosexuality). And at the time in history the discrimination was happening, most people considered the discrimination normal. Heck even we still have problems with society discriminating against young people, and especially teenagers, by the way. So I really care about young people's rights. But I still think these draconian content laws are unacceptable, they are replacing one form of abuse (pedophilia), with another by the state (sending people to prison for possession of data).
- doubloon 3y agobigots will always try to abuse the legal system to attack minorities, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to improve the legal system to protect victims of crime. if we are going to argue over historical injustice, this crime in particular has been ignored for centuries because the perpetrators were often powerful and wealthy.
