       While it is good that more #regulations are coming for #online platforms (and #COPPA must go), it remains to be said that the well-being of #children should not rely on for-profit businesses: No regulation will deter them from milking the unsuspecting kids. Parents and teachers, on the other hand, should adapt to the reality: neither laissez-faire nor strong-arm, but communication through knowledge and empathy, will lead the new generations onto the right track.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6G3QNPQy80

       And here we have someone calling for kids to give up (the sense of) #privacy for global age verification... Look, kids are curious and need social status, hence they will get on #socialmedia sooner or later, so will age requirements make them understand what they're getting into? But I do agree on building a platform better suited for kids... Maybe have supervised clubs at schools running #ActivityPub instances in closed federations (connecting nearby schools)?https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/05/opinion/social-media-parents-children.html
