Maybres Bearcon probably shouldn't teach typing @bresnanteddy.bsky.social

Yeah, the net nanny phase of the internet is definitely long gone for all but the youngest children - you can't just block and hide - as much as that's exactly the type of legislation they are trying to push these days - you have to educate and set a baseline for interacting - not easy for sure.

There is no proper baseline for interacting with a product intentionally made to make users dependant on it. We've already done the same thing for social media and now we know stuff like infinite scroll/constant playlists/etc is harmful regardless of usage time.

Tech companies have shown time and time again they will maximize harm to maximize profits and only stop harming people after laws are implemented. What happened to Adam shouldn't have happened in the first place; these companies have gone on unregulated for too long.
