This pisses me off so much. They don't give a single solitary fuck about kids OR their safety online. If they did, they wouldn't do it like this. If/when I have kids, they're not getting a smartphone until they turn 14. Until then, they'll be using a flip phone to contact me. THAT'S how you create a safe online environment for kids, not by banning VPNs which takes away privacy rights from everyone else. They just want to control us and take our right to privacy away but they don't realize that a strict government creates the best liars. If they ban VPNs, people WILL find a way to consume whatever content they desire regardless of what the government says. This can only end badly and make life hell for everyone below a certain tax bracket. Although, I guess that was their goal at the very beginning so I'm just being redundant.

    Kids with access to porn will put it on flash drives and sell it to other kids. Are they gonna ban flash drives next?

    No the next thing will be to ban porn completely. Look at Project 2025. It’s in the list. Granted this is a US based initiative but other countries seem to be speed running the checklist.

    The document’s foreword asserts that pornography is not protected by the First Amendment and “should be outlawed,” calling for criminal prosecution of producers and distributors and shuttering tech/telecom companies that facilitate its spread

    When you have a shit-ton of money and a system rigged in your favor, anything's possible. Hell, for example, if they found a way to ban sexual acts and procreation (what we've been doing since the beginning of our species) whatsoever and restrict it to selected individuals that THEY choose, they'd change the laws to suit them, begin the brainwashing of their supporters under the guise of "the greater good," and then they'd do it and everyone that voted for it would act surprised like any of what happened wasn't foretold years prior.
