Am I the only one who looked at NSFW websites at 10 years old and played games with voice chat with players of all ages too, and I turned out to be well adjusted productive member of society?
People need to chill.
- salawat 4mo agoSeconded. The amount of time and characters spent here trying to coax someone into trying to help these damn layers materialize just tells me the point isn't the kids. It's trying to preserve business model in spite of negative externalities.
- narnarpapadaddy 4mo agoSame, I care little about NSFW. We used to all live in caves together where kids saw adults having sex, in conflict, and cleaning game. But I also grew with a different internet than we have now. There’s a level of targeted manipulation that’s novel. I’m not sure the cat goes back in the bag no matter what we do.
- account42 4mo agoBut the targeted manipulation is also bad for adults.
- llbbdd 4mo agoSame here. Every time a thread like this comes up it brings out that a surprising number of paranoid helicopter parents browse HN, which is a contradiction in perspective that I can't really emphasize with.
- nitwit005 4mo agoThat's the system. You're supposed to freak out about your kids doing the same things you did when you were young.
- account42 4mo agoAs long as freaking out means ranting at the dinner table and not making dystopian laws for everyone, sure.
