Can we not call everyone we don’t like pedophiles? It lowers the impact of the word when it’s used against an actual pedo. It also makes it harder to reason with those people because they just think of you as name callers.

I agree that the more popular opinion is changing to more freedom, but most of the older millennials and above that I talk to care more about catching criminals because they are more likely to be influenced by Facebook/Nextdoor posts and the mainstream media.

Thank you!

PRC? Sorry looking it up didn’t give me a good result.

Sadly some people do want flock cameras because they think it’s worth it to have a better chance of catching criminals even if our personal liberties get taken away. It’s the age old freedom vs safety discussion.

I’m saying that the big corporations have such a strong foothold that I personally don’t think we will ever be able to properly regulate them when they can pay off all of the politicians. I’m not trying to be a doomer, those are just my beliefs.

I agree. I don’t think screen time limits are adequate.

Alright I understand your perspective now and agree.

Then the big companies will just operate under multiple names to commit tax evasion like they already do and pay off the politicians to let them.

You don’t need to know how to use social media to set up the Apple parental controls that put time restrictions on certain apps.

I don’t understand how it correlates. The article isn’t saying that children of parents who use social media are more likely to be addicted to social media, it’s saying that parental controls aren’t helping stop social media addiction in children. So how does that smoker analogy make sense?

That analogy makes no sense for this situation.

Ok but how would that even work? When a company’s product/service is good, then people start recommending it to others and more and more people start using it. The only way to stop companies from growing big is to force them to stop accepting customers after a certain point.

Google trying to scare Europe into giving them money and power back in their region 😥 Stfu and let Europe get their individuality and contribute to open source projects which will help Americans like me much more than any amount of money given to Google.

Sorry for the late reply but I would follow what Privacy Guides says in this article: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/vpn/

I have ProtonVPN, but I am soon going to be switching to Mullvad as I find that they provide a better service and I like the company more.
