@TCatInReality until we reach that Democratic ideal, we need to recognise which "regulations" are beneficial and which one aren't. Tracking the online and irl activities of every citizen via digital ID and Flock, "predictive policing" and censoring LGBTQ or political info = bad regulation. OSHA, FAA, banning CSAM etc = good regulation. Fighting the bad ones isn't "reflexive attacking."

@thecyberwitch Sure. Those are fine examples - and I agree on those specifics. But this thread started out with a broadside on the "child safety" rationale and I joined in when it deteriorated to "parents should manage their kids safety" argument. That's the reflexive attacks I was referring to. BTW, I appreciate your civil and well-thought-out responses.
