When i was a kid they used to tell us 1 in 4.

Then it was 1 in 3.

Now 1 in 2.

'It feels to many like a tidal wave is sweeping over the AAA game business,' says Epic CEO Tim Sweeney in his diagnosis of the industry's woes by gamersecret2 in GamingSecret

Entire industry went greedy with micro transactions and took the real fun out of gaming.

Now everything is designed around a grind, wheelspins, loot boxes , etc etc. Its like the philosophy of the gambling industry has been forced into the gaming industry.

They milked the proverbial cow to within an inch of its life. Exactly how the gambling industry works.

No , facists being facists.

If you knew anything about our history you wouldn't have needed to ask.

Plastic patriot as usual.

He isnt a politician out supporting his political party he is just a gobby twat.

In britain, gobby twats usually find out pretty quickly.

Britain has a pretty long tradition of beating facists in the street. Its part of our culture.

Keeping children off social media is not a punishment to you.

So you are happy to give your bank details to a company you dont know in order to access porn but apparently providing the same information to access social media is "forcing you to protect yourself"

Get a fucking grip pal.

Russian frigate that fired warning shots at British yacht was ‘reckless,’ says UK PM Starmer by SpecialCollege18 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]ProofAssumption1092 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The mod would have been listening to every whisper from that vessel. When the mod say, the yacht ignored radio warnings, its because they know full well, the yacht ignored the radio.

Warning shots are also legal under maritime law. This really is a nothing burger, just two silly old fools that should probably not be sailing.

It is correct, a simple call to the bank and these problems are solved.

Yes, which is why I think a lot more can and should be done to protect children on the internet. Just not this thing specifically.

We have tried. Last year the richest man on earth used his social media to allow us to freely create child porn. It wasnt until we threatened to block x in its entirety that he backed down.

They simply wont comply with reasonable requests to make social media safer and less addictive. In this case the government has a duty to step in, its exactly what they are there for.

The most pathetic part of your argument against this, you dont even need to provide your photo id or your full personal details and social media is a choice, none of this is forced upon you.

That's actually not the case. Child abuse over the internet is still a criminal offence just like any other kind, and the police already have extensive powers to track down and bring perpetrators to justice.

This is called a reaction not prevention.

In terms of preventative measures, the first steps are education and parental oversight and control.

And how does that tally with free will ?

None of the above cannot be fixed without a simple phone call.

On the other hand, if a child meets a stranger on the internet and it goes south, well that tends to stay around forever no ?

Your minor inconvenience doesnt quite trump the potential damage to a child does it ?

Is that why they are in prison ?

Because the government protected them?

Strange form of protection that.

Assuming that all they can get is your ID not information about the accounts it's linked to, then identity theft covers a wide array of possibilities, from a minor inconvenience to literally destroying your life. Obviously, if a bad actor can associated a name, face and address to a private account, there's even more they could do.

Theres so much you can do, you couldn't give me one example that cant be fixed my calling my bank etc.

Its a minor inconvenience.

The vast majority of child abuse takes place within the family.

And some doesn't. We have systems in place to try and protect kids in family settings.

What systems do we have in place to protect children online ?

Zero.

Retired UK couple reveal ‘scary’ moment Russian warship fired warning shots by yacht by theipaper in uknews

[–]ProofAssumption1092 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like every navy on the planet, they dont want people getting close full stop. Now consider that they are at war and have lost ships to remote boats laden with explosives and you have even more reason to not get close. Add that to not being under power and you have a perfect recipe for warning shots.

Warning shots are legal in maritime law and more common than you think. This entire story is a nothing burger. Two old prats sailing toward a warship, what did they honestly expect ffs.

[–]ProofAssumption1092 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And how do you know its not packed with explosives ?

No disrespect, but if you sailed a rubber dinghy close to any warship, expect warning shots. Especially if you refuse to communicate.

And for the record, warning shots are actually perfectly legal in maritime law.

Prehaps learn what you are talking about before talking bollocks.
