      Enjoy free internet while you still can, in 5 years time we will have Chinese level censorship, blocking and surveillance.

      They don’t want to protect kids, they want to get the ID of everyone on the internet to suppress dissent.

      *”Legislation working its way through the UK parliament would ban children from using social media and virtual private networks – but the proposals would endanger online privacy and may not make children safer, say legal experts”*

      This sudden concerted “concern for children online”, from a couple of European governements, in a time where certain less than convenient facts regarding intimate acts practiced by very powerful people on an island, is nothing but a coincidence.

      Certainly…

      > erodes adult’s privacy

      Yes. that’s what they want. In these days when someone says “to protect children” they almost always mean “to install mass surveillance”.

      If you can offer prosperity and political rights and you can pursue more authoritarian regime in terms of societal control

      These bans to protect children are all smoke and mirrors. If they truly cared about the dangers of social media, they would be regulating the algorithms and data harvesting these tech companies employ instead. Social media started becoming an issue when the tech companies started to decide what content is shown to the user, and trying to maximize engagement and scrolling time to harvest more data and serve more ads.

      Im sorry, why would children need a vpn? Why would they need internet? Why do they even need a phone?? Its a child…

      The dumb part is that by pushing these idiotic surveillance laws they will make people vote for the populists. And then the populists will use these laws to make themselves permanent. Talk about idiocy.

      Ban social media entirely, for adults too. And stop calling it “social”, it’s algorithmic media.

      Because it’s not about protecting kids. It’s about invading everyone’s privacy to protect the wealthy who prey on these kids. 

    12. Different_Citron_160 on

      It’s pretty obvious that they want to know who uses the VPN.

      Man, politicians love thinking about children don’t they. Fucken pdfs the lot of them.
