It certainly is cheaper to have tech companies bare responsibility for the education and safekeeping of children than change society in a way that parents would have the time and urge to do it themselves. Who in their right minds would try have a young parent deal with the education of their child on socially acceptable behavior and the dangers of the internet and other people anyway? Have you seen the kind of people that are trying to have the internet raise their children? There should be an EARN IT act to prevent those people from procreation in the first place. Sure, i like a good sob story about a mother unable to get by without 3 jobs like any other guy, but who is at fault here? The internet, for not being a safe enough place for kids? The single parent household who was destined to fail on every level from the beginning? The Society that finds it fit to have no other safeguards in place? Everyone is at fault here, especially the Mexicans. You can make an argument about how the internet should be just as safe for children as sending them to the nearest arcade without parental supervision, but keep in mind that any policy that is not too vague for the broad public to understand will meet heavy resistance. Imagine them clearly outlining the goal of these bills as something like: A bill to give the kids a chance to be raised by the internet instead of you retards, who find a computer screen to be an adequate substitute for human interaction for a child. And also please let me know what you are talking about at all times so i can subtly influence you to be okay with a status quo that grants me the authority to kill a man in Yemen based on his eye color and height. That would be outright terrifying. Especially since this kind of fundamental change in law will have consequences even outside the US of A. Those blobs should focus on not having 30% of their population die from Corona rather than discussing the vague idea of global domination through the control of information flow to make up for their dwindling relevance in world-economy and politics. After Corona the world will increasingly be dependent on network based interactions as this is a forced beta test for large scale home office work and complete digital interaction between humans. Having the authority to tap into this information flow will be akin to having a state surveillance so perfect, they might just literally know what you will think next. Not that i care. As long as there is Hentai, there is hope. P. s. Is Shemale porn now considered supporting the lgbtq community, or is it a bad thing? asking for a friend.

I would support with a few adjustments. My opinion is not objective as I work directly with abuse and neglected children. I understand the view of others as to why parents should supervise their children's online activity. I do with my child; parental control, limited online time, GPS, and all the bells and whistles. Sadly, not all parents do. Children prone to child exploitation from online abusers do not have a capable adult protecting or supervising them. If they did, their would be no need for social services. However most children that are exploited and abused have also been victimis of their parents abuse, their protectors. Sadly there is a need for the community to get involve and help. This isn't just for the kids that have their own phone, tablet, desktop, PS4, and Xbox to communicate online, this is also for the kids that get sold when they're soliciting under the highway so they can get high to forget the beating they had at home, and now they'll be pimped online or have their photos roaming because a john does have a phone and tablet that he'll use instead of a VHS. Technology evolves, so does crime. We need to catch up and evolve with them. It's a new game with the predators, we need new rules.

This so very typical of our gov. Instead of actually taking the time to hash; ) out an effective nuanced solution they create unsustainable broad blanket solutions that sound good but do basically nothing to address the actual issues & sacrifice the safety & security of the gen pop. Fundamentally this anti-crypto shite is just unsustainable. You make it harder for public companies to host platforms with hard crypto & people will just switch to using third-party apps. All it takes a quick msg, hit me up on this app real quick[insertLink] boom. The bill just lost all its teeth. And u cant ban a program. Not only is it wrong(very anti1stAmmendment) but its also virtually unenforceable. Protecting ur kids is great & all but as a parent isn't that ur fking job. Monitor ur kids when they online or better yet chill wit the young fam when they online. if u don't have the time then stop letting a phone/comp be ur kids babysitter cuz no matter how many restrictive laws u put into place if u just leave them to their own devices(lit&fig) shite's gunna go sideways. Take the time to sit with ur kids & teach them some online safety the same way u teach them meatspace safety. The gov can't be a parent for you.

I completely understand wanting to keep children safe. More should be done to keep them that way. But the reason why I dont like regulations such as Earn It and COPPA, is that it shifts blame to the companies from the parents who are not keeping good enough tabs on their own children. I know its impossible for parents to know exactly what their children are doing online. Lord knows my parents didnt know everything I was doing. But parents should take more responsibility in educating their kids on how to be safe in the internet and what potential dangers there can be. My thoughts on this are idealist, I know, but it would be incredibly difficult, if not impossible, for companies to track down every potential case of child exploitation without having to give up at least some of our privacy. Not only conversations we have on those websites, but any information we give them could be more easily compromised due to a weakening of encryptions

It's not the social media company's responsibility to tell us how to speak online, or regulate every day interactions. It's our own. If we constantly have the government step in, then people as a whole will never learn to regulate themselves. That's the real solution. SELF regulation, not government regulation. Hold illegal practices responsible yes, but if you open the gate to let the government tells us how to interact online, then we are all going to be silenced, and suffer from it. More government control is exactly what this country was founded against. It's time to learn to be responsible for our own actions. Please don't let the government get involved with the internet.

The apparent end goal of this EarnIt Act, feels to me to be heading closer and closer to a 1984 Big Brother concept of life. I have to wonder if those who are pushing adamantly for this bill read that book and went Yeah, that's how life should be. I want to make that happen. It certainly feels like that to me. I worry that people will not be aware of the ramifications of this bill due to being more worried (and rightfully so) about the pandemic. I worry that the ones pushing this bill will take the panic most are feeling now to sneak in more harmful legislation simply because no one can actively protest it.

What ever happened to parenting your children? worried about exploitation? watch what they are accessing yourself. As a father its not the government or media that is responsible for protecting my child, its mine. Even Xbox has parent settings that allow you to see what games and apps your child is accessing and for how long allowing you to set limits on their access to content. Stop turning your electronic into your personal babysitter just because you are to lazy to actually spend time with your children. If you are to busy to be a parent to your child, maybe you shouldn't have children.

Disable encryption for the general public so you can make them safe and let the bad guys use other means of encryption that you can't stop. All this is going to do is make the average person less safe and make the bad guys use actually good encryption which you cant break. There is a really good quote that goes something along the lines of: The government has a HD TV view of the general public right now, they can see everything they do or say but they have these couple of dead pixels in the corner that is just black (encrypted communication) and its really pissing them off.

3: 47 This is so ironic; she expects these companies to be responsible when she is the bloody parent and is the number one person accountable to be responsible of her child. The companies should only be responsible of hosting the platform; if parents want to keep their children safe they should be with them while they're playing the online game or just get them to play an offline game instead. This bill does not need to be passed over nothing where the solution is so easy and asymmetric encryption could be at risk. I worry about humanity sometimes.
