If you want it, that should be your right, but the government shouldn't be forcing it on you.
That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying governments could force MS, Google, Apple to implement content filtering tools at the OS level, that give users the choice to set up filtering however they want for themselves or their kids.
This already largely works, at least on Android. I use RethinkDNS, which allows me to filter stuff already, and comes included with a host of DNS filters out of the box.
I don't need MS, Google, or Apple to do it, just make it possible to install a third-party app that does it. That way I get to decide which tool I think works best instead of whatever the OEM decides.
