    PTB. This is unreasonable. Also trying to prevent teenagers from accessing the internet is just going to lead to all teenagers just lying about their age. It’s not going to stop it. It’s just going to mean they can’t discuss their actual opinions and issues honestly. It would also reinforce the need to lie to be part of culture, which is just not healthy.

    • Teenagers lying about their age on the internet is as old as teenagers on the internet.

      Keeping the age barriers in place is good anyway. It communicates to younger people clearly that the content is not considered suitable for them. It gives them a moment to think and reconsider.

      Participating in online culture might be generally not healthy for adults as well.

        Did you know? IG is pretty restrict about NSFW content? But does it stop anything? No.

          Tumblr banning porn just made porn unlabelable, so I cannot filter it out in any way. It also gets posted to random hashtags (there is porn in #halloween there)

      I hope you’re independently wealthy and can afford legal fees.

          What’s most important is that you got to feel smug.

          What’s most important is not having every fucking instance other than .world hanging from a legal thread. Isn’t your instance based in the E fucking U? That’s not exactly the wild fucking west as far as legal requirements for hosts go.

          Believe it or not, I don’t want any of this shit going down. I’m not fucking 20, I’m not full of vim and vigor. I don’t get a fucking thrill out of fighting with people online anymore. I question why I stay in these communities when everyone seems content to play chicken on the railroad tracks.

            Man, that constant “I’m the only adult in the room” vibe you try to have is getting obnoxious old.

              Yeah, I fucking agree. It’s getting real old being the only adult in the room. I didn’t realize the admins of most Lemmy instances were just winging it, thinking “Well, when it comes crashing down, it comes crashing down 😊”

              Utter zero-foresight techbro shite. Jesus Christ.

                Sadly You’re not the real adult in the room. You’re just a smuglord who’s way too high on the smell of their own farts.
