The example you give doesn’t really track. If a drug dealer is outside the entrance of your home it’s completely unavoidable. A kid looking at adult material online? Entirely within the control of the parents. We already have filtering and monitoring software.
replyI know several parents that limit screen time, require screen usage be restricted to public areas of the home, have parental controls and filtering operating etc.. some of the parents I know won’t even let their kids watch a movie unless they screen it first.
If a drug dealer is outside the entrance of your home you can avoid it by not leaving your home. What if every time you turn on the computer it shows objectionable content? It's easily avoidable by not turning on the computer. Same argument. Is it a reasonable one?
replySomething must be wrong with your computer. I don't see objectionable content when I turn mine on? I'd have to actively seek out objectionable content and I don't even have any sort of filtering or parental controls enabled on my own devices.
replyI do, it asks me to log in with a Microsoft account and thereby give all my personal data to Microsoft.
replyActually not, since I use Linux, but most people's do. It's much worse on my phone.
How does banning VPNs equate to policing drug dealing? The drug dealing is already illegal.
replyIt doesn't equate; it's being employed as an analogy to address the justifiability of broad enforcement efforts targeting something.
