This was bound to happen, and it’s ridiculous

    I’m so fucking sick of losing my rights to protect other people’s kids. I don’t have any fucking kids. Why don’t they apply their idiotic rules to those that do and leave the rest of us be.

      Who is voting for these people?

      I have a feeling that this is another example of the ruling class doing whatever it wants regardless of what the working class wants.

      Our representatives do not represent us.

      Also, give up your rights for the kids, but don’t ask for any justice towards the royal pedophile prince, that’s bad.

      Also, no more free school lunches, think of the children.

      Because it’s all an excuse to eliminate all privacy. The empire doesn’t survive if the workers are allowed to communicate freely.

        I know. If they really cared about protecting kids they could force ISPs to sell a whitelisted or blacklisted “Family” service. They could even go further into insanity and force parents to only use that service until their kids turn 18. They could even force parents to install tracking software to make sure kids only connect to safe networks and use school registration records to keep track of homes with children.

        Of course that’s all rediculous, but obviously they don’t want to protect kids. They want to take away our rights and privacy and with the way politicians all over the world have been harping about falling birthrates, making it harder to access porn might cause fewer people to use it in the hope that more people have kids.

          Bullshit, ISPs are not responsible for kids either. That’s the parents’ job, not any company’ or government’.

            I agree completely. I was giving a rediculously extreme example of a way they could actually try to protect kids from porn if that really was their goal.

      Because we’re fine with kids not having rights, but when anyone else gets mildly screwed by regulation like this we get angry. Great. How about we did something about it before it started affecting us?

      It is not about the children, nor their parents. Redirect your anger towards the perpetrators, not towards the scapegoats…

        I have no anger towards children or parents in general. I just think it’s the parent’s responsibility to monitor their kids not the government’s. Thus, the only people who should be affected by rediculous rules and laws that “protect children” are people who have children. Plus, there are plenty and religious and right wing parents who support shit like this.

          I have 2 kids, and I can’t agree more. My kids have PCs with Linux, I control and monitor everything they do in them, and teach them to use technology responsibly. That’s my job, not any government’s.

          I keep saying this. People have kids, but then don’t want the responsibility that carries with it.

            Linux

            I control and monitor everything they do in them

            Some software recommendations? I mean, I don’t have kids, but I like Linux and it doesn’t hurt to know where to perhaps point someone.
            So far I only seen Veyon in action, but only for monitoring and remote control of multiple PCs, which probably doesn’t fit home environment.

      Keep watching this bit, so you dont focus on the other bit… which will be to attack end to end encryption in message apps. ie you must put a back door in, so we can see who is saying what, whenever we want.

      This labour government, makes me want tories back. Thats how fucking bad they are.

        you know, a federal europe with a shared, rotated heads of governments (always at least 3 countries) would help a lot, geopolitically too come back you fools, we miss you. Put Starmer and Farage together into a padded cell and let them fight it out
