- JohnMakin 3y agoIf only parents had a way of controlling who children associated with. If only.
- whythre 3y agoIf that is the worry, then bad influences won’t be stopped by some shitty internet-wide age verification. Teens can bully each other with their cameras, or words. If their peers are the problem, no amount of government playing internet cop will help.
- huytersd 3y agoNo smart phone and no social media for kids society wide and we go back to good old fashioned bullying in person. That’s much easier to curtail.
- phantom784 3y agoI don't think that age verification is a good idea. But I don't think the counter-argument that "parents can just monitor their kids' devices" really holds water - there's still plenty of ways around it.
