    well looks like this is going to get pretty bad…How is it the responsibility of platforms to take care of your children for you? It’s not school, it’s not daycare, it’s the internet. Does the electric company have some moral or legal obligation to keep your children from jamming a fork in the outlet? Does a public beach need staff on hand to keep children from digging dangerously large sand tunnels that could collapse? Is it up to the water company to provide your child with special means of not flooding your basement? If we need this for some reason, why don’t we need to force manufacturers to create cars that won’t start for under-16’s, windows in high buildings that you have to be 18 to open, or headphones that won’t get too loud unless you enter your date of birth? This is some Footloose-level bullshit and I just do not get it I guess.
