    To be fair, I think it does, I just value the privacy of literally every internet user over the mild consequences faced by most about children. You have to break some eggs sometimes, and it’s better the children draw the short stick rather than everyone else.

      You should simply not use invasive tools for monitoring children. There are private alternatives.

      Also I would be careful just giving a child a device. It sends the wrong message and if you are monitoring it all the time it teaches them its ok to be watched.

        Yep.

        Work with them while they’re young, teach them along the way.

        Just like you would teach them how to cook, prepare food, etc. I wouldn’t leave a kid unattended in the kitchen with a French knife…

      Ehhhhh I value privacy as well, but I’m not sure I am so blasé about unrestricted access for minors. I just think that’s more the domain of parents - with some government oversight, of course, but not nearly to the extent they want. And definitely not via the methods these bills are pushing.
