So don’t have an age restriction for tobacco, or alcohol or strip clubs either cuz you can’t shield kids from anything? Got it.
Nice strawman you got there, but we weren’t talking about those topics.
The topic was social media, try to keep up.
It’s absolutely relevant. Go back to your cave if you can’t understand that. It’s 2024. You have to think about digital restrictions the same way you think an out analog.
Do you know what the great thing about 2024 is? People actually understand that digital doesn’t have the same restrictions as analog.
Applying those very same restrictions would be foolish seeing how it wouldn’t work as well, or even at all.
Nuance is sometimes important in these topics, no matter how much you want to act like your bullshit argument actually holds any water for some overarching topic no one was talking about.

Just dont give internet connected devices to kids and your problems are solved. I would agree with company being forced to verify the age of a person before signing a internet contract. Don’t give open access to internet to kids it’s just like sending them anywhere in the world alone.
right, just don’t give kids cigarettes or guns and your problems are solved…
Put in a parental filter then. You are trying to ruin the accessibility of the internet. What is a person from another country going to do when they don’t have a US ID or whichever country is trying this? The internet doesn’t have regions and people will move on to seedier websites that aren’t based in that country anymore. You can see that with the several states that banned porn without ID. Most porn sites are still available without ID and big names like Pornhub can easily be accessed with a VPN that kids are constantly being advertised about by YouTube ad-reads. Requiring ID won’t make kids safer, it’ll just make the internet a headache to use and a source of identity theft when websites get hacked.
