Actually, the thing that all the nerds on the internet kept saying turned out to be true.

Anyone or anything which claims to provide security does so at the cost of liberty and privacy. By nature, freedom and liberty for the individual are unsafe for the collective. Not to mention, these laws are being applied proactively to prevent behavior, rather than reactively to punish wrongdoing.

Frankly, this is wrong.

Not only that, but if there’s one thing I know about growing up in the 2000s it’s that kids will always find a way and this will only make them go onto shadier parts of the internet where they actually will run into more dangerous material. The internet is a big place when you don’t stick to these specific platforms. If you actually wanted to keep them safe you’d want them on the platforms and sites you can keep track of and not make it more difficult to use them. This is a can of worms they won’t easily be able to close again once they open it.

“Aimed at making the internet safer” is a fucking lie. That is just how they are promoted.

Well, I think I’ve had enough. Where I used to solve the problem of the world being shit by drinking heavily, I’ve since stopped drinking. Guess I’ll have to get hooked on heroin. As soon as I’m unaware of the outside world, all my troubles can slip away.

It’s almost as if that were the point… nahhhh.
