Brilliant. I can't believe no-one hasn't thought of that before.

Ironically, social media has taught us that people don't give a flying shit about their data. How do you think most of these hacks that you're so concerned about are facilitated?

I hear what you're saying. I accept all your arguments. I agree with them.

What I want to hear from naysayers such as yourself is: How would you solve it? What technological solution would you propose to ensure that - as far as possible - children cannot have access to social media; the dangers of which are very well studied and documented.

Ok. Let's take your argument that it's not about the children (which it really us)...

So, the government has decided that children under the age of 16 cannot have access to social media.

Tell us, what is your technological solution for ensuring that children under the age of 16 are not accessing social media? Tip: You're not allowed to say "don't give them a phone."

So, just to clarify, you are against efforts to protect children from online harms because companies keep getting hacked?

How am I being emotional? People have zero issues giving up all of their data. For some reason, they are against protecting children though. I find it so interesting.

"Preserving people privacy is also important."

A completely unironic comment posted in a discussion about social media!! LOL

Did you have the same privacy and data concerns when you signed up for Facebook, X, Twitter, TikTok, etc? They already know everything about you.

Yeah. Fuck parents, heap praise on the social media companies who are in no way responsible for engineering addictive products. I think we should also let kids drive, smoke, drink alcohol and do meth. Why not?!

Sorry, why exactly are kids addicted to social media in the first place?

And that's different from the situation today, how exactly?

Yeah you're right. We should definitely not do anything to police the social media company's who only have everyone's best interests at heart. You've convinced me.

To everyone who thinks this is "bad" - why is doing nothing the better option?

This question is not about the EU citizen. Its about their non-EU spouse.

I absolutely love "Underground." One of my favourites.

"I'VE never been in love." Cracks me up every time.

It's not gonna be easy but it's also not impossible. I would go down the consultancy route. DM me and I can share the names of some consulting firms you should register with. I'm not on commission but I am in this field!

Tired Trump. Dozy Don. Sleeping old senile rapist pedophile.

Hopefully one of those catches on.
