This is really crazy
The concept of "World wide surveillance and censorship in the name of kids' safety" sounds really unreasonable
Or like a very very very lazy way to solve one of the problems on the internet
When i was 14 i was shopping on silkroad pretty much a lot, and the problem was not pedos on the social media, but the society and the kids themselves (although, i turned out to be a good person anyway, so probably even the silktoad was not that dangerous for a kid)
This is really ridiculous to even consider privacy and security of the world's population as a price for staying away from guys that get turned on seeing a minor
Especially considering all the laws and three letter agencies doing all kinds of really nasty and contradictory stuff. It feels like living in a corupted country whose talking heads are regularly get cought on bribes, lies, then they invade a neighboring country and continue saying "everything is alright", and the people believe it
