I’m saying the impartiality of the author is out of the window, was thrown on the lawn, and then driven over by a lawnmower. I’m sure I could make you look like a miserable failure if I spun your resumé hard enough.

Appreciate the Mr. Beast type hyperbole. The fundamental issue is unmanaged exposure to devices and content does harm to children, and both platforms and content is complicit in it. Too calm?

  Alright then, I’ve got a great idea: age verification for the internet. Don’t like it? That’s the future people like the author would endorse, and what every legislator is going to try to spin this story to do. I don’t like MrBeast, I even mispronounced his channel name in my original comment. The authors implicit proposal to fix it though is a trap. I believe the emotional language is a design choice to lead readers to be more favorable to such a proposal. It has nothing to do with MrBeast specifically.

    I don’t know if you are trolling but you have been using pretty loaded and manipulative language yourself. For the record, the new trend to shill MrBeast is to pretend to be neutral while you discredit the side against MrBeast more. Most of the time these people have a lot to say about MrBeast even though they say they don’t care or don’t like MrBeast. So…

  To people responding to this comment, maybe you don’t realise that YouTube has an app for kids with parental controls that a lot of parents do use? Try installing and do some search if you have never tried that before. It doesn’t take long before you find predatory content that leads to more predatory content.

    I’m not sure if you have children. Or watch children’s videos. Too many childrens youtube videos themselves have many, many, addictive elements in them. Sounds, colors, too many scene changes. YouTube kids is not delivering on its promise. Youtube and YouTube kids is meant to keep eyeballs.
