If conducted in good faith they would have discussed it with industry like everything else they do and industry would have worked with them to produce a solution that isn’t brain dead

I haven’t seen any cutout for small sites, you have to comply if meeting the criteria. You’d just be breaking the law and hoping the govt doesn’t come knocking

They could just release some tools to parents to monitor/block sites but that would be too logical

- Comment on Australia | Teenagers sue over social media ban for ‘violating their right to communicate’ 2 months ago:
Parents who neglect their children have their children removed. There are no excuses for bad parenting, there are plenty of resources to understand what “the internet” is. Seriously?
This is not a real argument. I’ve presented alternatives and you’ve ignored them. You raise strawmen and move goal posts. There are non police state alternatives. You’re arguing in bad faith and I will not engage with you further

People have always been fucked, we don’t need a bloody police state just because some people let their kids use the internet

- Comment on Alliyah 'married' their teacher at 13. No-one else knew 4 months ago:
This one, I can’t remember what study it was but something like half of all child sexual abusers were not attracted to children but instead had very stunted social skills (usually disabled or otherwise mentally ill) and struggle to connect with anyone with more advanced social needs than children. This results in them praying on the most vulnerable which is usually children.
