Unlike the lootboxes you think kids should have unrestricted access to, I'm sure the corporations will be satisfied and won't push even worse technology on kidsm

    Hear me out a non-invasive API isn't some terrible invasion of privacy, you already send user-agent strings to servers.

    Quit believing all the fearslop you see online man.

    And yet here you are fighting to defend corporations from regulations, somehow thinking you're not on the side of facism. 🤷‍♂️

    Lmao Lemmy users proving they are in fact dumber than AI and when confronted with a mass hallucination will call everyone a fed 🤣.

    The more deranged you post, the more I'm convinced restricting 13 y/o s access to the Internet (that this law doesn't do) is a great idea.

    Don’t put words in be to my mouth you filthy liar.

    Lootboxes should be straight up banned, along with all other online gambling , which has become a bigger scam than crypto at this point.

    If you are mad at gambling, you don’t focus the government to track the speech of everyone through a slow-boil process to make it socially inevitable that our fucking retinal scans are uploaded to a central government database that tracks everything we post online.

    Just ban the gambling. It should never have been allowed. That’s the legal protection you need.
