@gonun13 You block legal porn sites, people will get to illegal porn sites full of potential malware. Or simply to torrents.
Age verification online solves absolutely nothing. Better education is the solution.
On the other hand, blocking social media is a double edged sword. 1: It might keep children safe from toxic behaviour; but they won't learn to recognise such behaviours once they are adults. But i guess once you are an adult you don't matter anymore? Hence, education is the solution.
1/2@gonun13 2: It might keep them ignorant on important stuff if their education is bad. Some parents are queerphobic, and children discover about queerness only in social media, which is extremely helpful. Some children only get emotional support from social media, as they CANNOT get it in person due to discrimination. This law puts at risk queer children.

@aubrey True thus we should fight governments with better solutions. But the digital world can't become a lawless place or catered just by big corps.

@Tutanota why age verification is not safe? Internet should be 35+ only. Because it destroys brain tissues with cat pictures.
@rbuzz@mastodon.social @Tutanota@mastodon.social internet should be 80+ only to make it safe for seniors, of course. adults have the chance to make seniors uncomfortable and as such the internet should only consist of seniors.

1/2@Azarilh I agree Education is key and blocking is a double edged sword.
But the current ecosystem is causing a complete brain rot of an entire generation fueled by big corps and authoritarian regimes. Thus we need to start gatekeeping and moderating some usages or at least creating digital safe networks where devices handled by minors can connect freely. Children should be allowed to grow naturally and not jump start to all the crazy shit adults like to sell. -
@strigga_ @Tutanota
That is Stigmata what you are saying. You are correct on the 3rd but nut on the first 2. The First two has to be regulated and not to be banned. And i mean it also in context of minors. Because you are make it as a Tabu and this is violence the minors indirectly. This is Double Standard if you argument that censoring everything is a good way to protect minors because that will make more victims if that Topics are stigmatized by everyone. That will get more violence not less.@Chris2000SP @Tutanota oh dear...

I'd rather governments fining and eventually blocking specific social media sites if their moderation is inadequate. Also doom scrolling should be illegal, as well as algorithms that promote negative interraction.
Yet no laws about any of that. Blocking social media outright is literally incompetence. Social media sites do all of that stuff cos it's legal.

@aubrey EU is doing such software and it's open source. They are very transparent about how it works.
@Azarilh The client software may be open source, but we don't know what's happening on their servers

@aubrey We can know how the software communicates with the servers, what information it gets.

@Azarilh Yes, that is true. But is it actually written, so there is no way to connect your profiles with your identity? I haven't read the source code to be honest

@aubrey I am not sure if it's completely safe, i am waiting for the final version then we can rate it.
