Isn’t this a parents decision?
Fully supportive of this. There are plenty of studies showing how damaging social media can be for children. For the portion about it would be easy to skirt, these could be the exact same arguments that could have been made for SEA 17 relating to age verification of pornography, but that didn’t stop that legislation from being approved.
Nice thought but will be looked at as a violation of the 1st Amendment. It requires adults to actually stepup and act as parents, which I know is a pipe dream. I was lucky in that I had parents who educated me that the stunts by the Three Stooges were not real and to not drop bricks on or poke the eyes of others.
Too late. The genie is out of the bottle. Same thing will happen with AI. It’s already happening, actually – guardrails are being thwarted. Always about the bejamins…
So the government wants to control what kids have access to, isn’t that the parent’s responsibility?
Oh wait, discipline is also not their responsibility, what was I thinking?
