Are the children really the greatest risk right now? I think the bigger danger is elderly voters globally that are living on Facebook and accessing misinformation. There needs to be a ban for the gullible out of touch at the other end of the age bracket also.
None of this is about protecting anybody
Facebook spreads so much conspiracies and shit, that my elderly mother just cant believe otherwise. She’s on facebook since 2010 i think. It is actually sad to see that my mother is also spreading conspiracies and russian propaganda :(
My mom’s FB account being hacked was the best thing to happen to her mental health in decades.
its a cover for mass surveillance.
The gullible out of touch at the other end of the age bracket are the ones making the laws.
I genuinely think that there has to be some kinda bracket for voting on age-restriction topics in EU parliament. Because those old people in parliament are so out of touch with the technology and how children behave nowadays, but they still vote for degenerate and retarded shit like chat control, believing that it is worth to surveil 400 million people, just to result major outflow of cybercriminals to other communication channels.
I dont like conspiracies, but what if eventually their goal is to just send all criminals into free and open solutions, then ban these solutions , because they’re used by criminals.
