    It won’t. Hurting teenagers is in the entire point, especially certain vulnerable groups like LGBT teens.

      Yup, it’s going to cut off so many kids from their support networks.

      Our government cares more about making baby steps to greater digital control and “protect the kids” packaging always sells well.

      What? How did you come to that conclusion? Most teens would be far better off without the constant barrage of content these websites push to us. Instead of having these laws, parents should be doing their jobs and protect their kids rather than letting their brains rot on the internet.

      I’ve watched the debate closely and hurting teens or anyone else is definitely not the objective. Whether it succeeds or not is another question.
