Comment on China turns on ‘minors mode’ to keep kids safe online

Psythik@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

Yeah seriously, China making a smart decision for once? What the fuck? Broken clocks, I suppose.

This needs to be a worldwide thing. We’re raising a generation of idiots because of engagement algorithms. Something needs to be done about it, or we’re going to be in serious trouble once Gen Alpha gets old enough to vote.

You don’t want kids to research, let’s say controversial, content of CCP wrongs and critism of policies ofc. Totally a smart move

  Yeah but it’s a great idea if executed correctly by a developed country. (i.e. not China)

    The point is censorship of viewpoints

    And my point is that certain viewpoints are already being censored on the major platforms.
    
    Say something anti-MAGA on YouTube the next time you get a chance, then load the page in an incognito window. You’ll notice that your comment is nowhere to be found. Check your comment history, and you’ll see a “some activity might not be visible yet” message at the top. Yet anything praising Trump gets to stay.
    
    Google/Meta/etc.are dangerous entities that are poisoning kids’ minds with conservative propaganda, and no one seems to notice or care. Something needs to be done.
