“Butters? Are you on Twitter?”
“No Dad! Just watching porn!”
…It’s actually a much better alternative, I can’t even lie.
This what we’re calling gen alpha then?
Apple is gonna love that free advertising
thats how theu thrive. remember airpods when they released?
Parents, all you have to do is talk near them about how cool X is to you, while suppressing your gag reflex long enough for them to cringe.
I mean it’s run by the biggest kid, so I guess it’s understandable that they at least want to check out what their like-minded fellow is doing over there.
I hope they turn away in disgust.
So what. Everyone was on twitter in middle school for me back when it first became a thing. It’s not new news.
Twitter now is what 4chan was then in many ways. This should be disconcerting in the least.
Yeah but 4chan could actually be fucking solid at time, tg was always fun. Oh and the image board format made the schizo posts fucking hilarious sometime. Also my little pony cum jar, that level of degeneracy is far more isolated on twitter.
It’s an anti-social network, makes sense with the trend of gen alpha sharing less and less, they will stumble through a lot of porn though…
I found it interesting to see where Roblox falls off the chart.
Let’s introduce a national digital I’d to stop the kids accessing shit online. And to ensure that we need to make it linked to ur government I’d.
Let’s not be pieces of shit using “for the kids” to destroy basic privacy rights online.
But think of the children they must be protected we can’t possibly expect parents to be responsible so the government must step in to ensure their safety.
Yeah there’s no way that could go wrong or be exploited by unscrupulous actors. /s
What could possibly go wrong. There definatly wouldnt be any authoritarian shit going on.
So every person can be identified on whatever sites they do whatever they post.
That’s China. Not America
You could very easily build the system to perform the age check without logging it to the user’s ID since the check only needs to be performed once to create an account and just block anyone without one from seeing any of the content.
Estonia has digital ID based services and they aren’t China. In fact China despises them because they’ve made the cutting edge in digital public services without having to compromise citizen privacy, which makes China look even worse for going out of their way to invade citizen privacy when it isn’t even necessary to offer the same safety measures and services.
What about we introduce more control from teachers and parents about what devices kids have access to, and give them some supervision too while we’re at it?
I propose we take all parents, line them up, and start slapping them in the face until they stop being so fucking stupid.
Alternatively, and more realistically, we accept that gen z and gen alpha are just lost causes and massively invest in schools so maybe in a couple of generations we can break the cycle of stupidity.
That will never work. The people can’t be trusted they must be controlled with an iron fist of justice and glory.
You’d what?

You should have to actually validate your age to use social media and you should be required to be 18.
