"Strengthen the online trust and safety model" is a weird way to say "no porn."

  It has many other uses, IMO. - Disable signup/require COPPA form to be mailed & signed - Filter out explicit content from user-generated content - Disable vulgar sections from a blog - Prohibit downloading software etc

    Most of these are horrible suggestions for the same reason Do Not Track is useless - no enforcement or guarantees make it pointless. Especially that last one. LOL. The notion of a webpage blocking me from downloading because of a header that my platform's client browser sent? Pfft.

    > - Disable signup/require COPPA form to be mailed & signed Somewhat off topic, but I think 13 is considerably above the age where kids have a reasonable interest in being able to actually use the web. When I was a few years younger than 13 (10 years ago...), I once accidentally put my true birthday into AIM, and was subsequently banned from the service I used to communicate with friends from school. Recently, the same happened with one of my sister's friends and Gmail. Does anyone actually think these forms are a good thing?

      I don't think forms are the answer. I think it should be around 9 or 10, honestly. I'm not too sure what would replace forms though.
