I would assume the average school child is more concerned about instagram or tiktok vs other parts of the internet. I would not be against finding a way to limit access to other sites, but I would prefer a privacy respecting way. Just requiring an ID is a shitty solution and screws over adults more then it helps kids (they will find grandma's id.) If a privacy valuing solution is brought up I would be 1000% supporting it.
I understand the logic that UNESCO is trying to make. However instead of a global ban on the device itself, ban the addictive parts of it. TikTok and most other corporate social media are designed to keep everyone, kids and adults alike as addicted to the platform as possible. Phones are still a valuable resource for a student, including being able to call in the event of an emergency or having access to maps or other things.
Ban the actual evil on the phones, not the phones themselves
The issue is, most of the people left on reddit are damn near addicts. Or those who weren't directly affected by the api and therefor don't care and just jump on the fuck spez cause hating ceos is cool*.
(CEOs should be hated on don't get me wrong, but for actual reasons and be held to that hate, not just hating for a trend)
Used to ask this question alot. But then I realized, its to be part of a community of sorts, either in a random twitch streamer's chat or on reddit. I kinda get it now, and I while I wish people would put this money towards either smaller creators or more charitable causes I do also respect peoples right to spend however they want.
Google works and it doesn't. I use Duckduckgo, and in general it works decent. Both suck and so does brave search so I don't really have many options that I know of. I always end up searching with reddit to get any real result, as its always the same clickbaity shifty sites.
The sad part is, Google ends up being the best of all the shittyness, because whenever I search some local none of the other engines know what to do. The number of times I have to switch to Google for a address is sad.
Sorry, I seemed to have misunderstood what you meant in relation to this thread.
You make a good point actually, I don't typically consume NSFW so I am not too welled versed in it but it appears that the problem are models who "pass" as younger I guess? I mean I can see the slippery slope and how that might be hypocritical to the initial I stated. My opinion on that is its a slippery slope but ultimately consensual so it doesn't bother me.
The initial point was more on the idea of lgbtq+ rights (or anyone's rights) shouldn't even be a political topic to begin with, as human rights shouldn't a nuanced problem. Everyone should have a right to live how they please as long as they hurt nobody else. It shouldn't be a question, as truthfully anyone's existence alone shouldn't hurt anyone else, and if it does then it sounds like the person being hurt is the actual problem.
By that logic, why is it a problem if consenting adults express themselves sexually in non-traditional ways?
In what context are we talking and how are we presenting?
I see plenty of cis women wanting to go to the beach nearly full cheeks out but that's considered fine? I can show my bare chest since I am not fem passing, but after a hrt will it suddenly not be fine? Our standards for whats ok and whats not are very iffy at best.
The overlap between kink and lgbtq+ I don't see as an issue. As long as consenting adults are the ones involved and we keep minors out of it I am 100% for it.
