      What I meant was during the Brexit referendum most people were saying it wouldn’t pass. In other words, if there was a referendum for this it probably WOULD pass since it’s really easy to influence people through media.

        I get what you mean, for it to be comparable I think we’d need a “should there be legislation to protect kids on the Internet” referendum and then this is the implementation and everyone hates it…
