@catnipmedia @Tutanota you can have controls on the child’s device and the home/school routers, as set up by parents/schools, not age gate (surveil, papers please) me as an adult using every safe and well-moderated user-to-user site on the internet, preventing small safe sites even existing (e.g. my running club’s forum vs forcing use of Meta cos of cost of age gating tech). Also regulate the harmful ad-driven algorithms and the moderation of the sites. 1/2

Making me as an adult use ID with unregulated companies to see every user-to-user site, such as Wikipedia, substantially increases risk of an ID breach. Also there’s a massive issue with treating someone at 13, 16 and 18 the same in what internet they should be allowed. And finally your extreme examples are already illegal content so need no new rules. 2/2
