not give a single flying fuck

That does it. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it? Bye.

Age verification without disclosing all your private data is absolutely doable.

Platforms saying "Yeah just put in your passport data" is cheap, and "we should not block anyone's access to anything on the internet" from privacy advocates is lazy.

You made the decision you have a child - now take the responsibility and stop relying on the government or companies to educate your children.

"your children, your problem"? No. Raising the next generation is widely understood to be a burden shared between parents and wider society. Point in case: public schools and kindergardens are essential for modern society, and they are largely funded by taxpayer money, not by parents.

We shouldnt just hope that parents successfully fight the hydra of online dangers by doing DNS filtering & running ad blockers on all devices their children can get their hands on.

We are perfectly able to block minors from entering brothels, or from buying cigarettes and booze. Why should we not be able to do the same for internet usage?

No contradiction there (I'd very much like to ban infant circumcision)

No. Kids will do what their peers do. As a parent, I have limited influence – unless I want to do other things that are detrimental in their own way like… confiscate their smartphones & ground them.

I can educate my children all I want – if their peers are on Social Media nonstop, they will be too.

Even Germany is showing some signs of movement ( https://deutschland-stack.gov.de/ , https://www.sovereign.tech/de/ ), so… I wouldnt be surprised for some pan-European initiative to be in the works.
