Parents know that the UK's verification rules won't really protect their kids. But they are still worried about their children's safety. They just aren't being offered non-dystopian alternatives.

My prediction for the UK's Age Verification? The failure to protect children will become obvious. But the systems that force grownups to provide their IDs before sharing political views will persist. Because too many bureaucrats and certain big corporations benefit.

Parents can take matters into their control through router settings at home and through settings such as ‘screen time’ on the iPhone.

90%+ of Russian-state laws restricting human rights were introduced under pretext of fighting terrorism and/or protecting children.
