 ...and all of it based on the unspoken assumption that adolescents ought to be out playing by themselves on the info superhighway. If they consider the potential harm to children serious enough to extinguish private communication and create a ubiquitous Big Brother, then the #CarAnalogy extends to this issue as well...

 @tasket @matthew_d_green (And while post secondary education is potentially optional, consider the same conditions for the local secondary education, or elementary, or pre-school education institutions.) @tasket @matthew_d_green exactly! But I guess there are many parents who do not care or look what their Kids are doing - the logical thing would be to legally force device manufacturers to install a child-protection feature and legally compelling parents to activate it. NCMEC are a bunch of zealots and have blown the stats completely out of proportion - several German NGO's have taken it apart and left only with a fraction of what is claimed. |

@tasket @matthew_d_green I don't agree with this; with the way the internet ends up being applied to a lot of Internet of Things connected items, and the wealth of knowledge accessible online, this ends up being the equivalent of not allowing anyone to drive a car below the age of 21...in a rural town more than 100 km away from the nearest post secondary education institutions.
