7 hours agoBesides the privacy implications : trying to protect children from grooming by forbidding specific apps, is like trying to treat chickenpox with concealer.
The real problem is that our society is even producing people who would groom a child.
But as always, politicians will try to “prevent” crime at the latest possible point in the action chain, instead of going back to the source.
I dont want to understate the fact that going to the source is extremely hard to do in many cases ; but maybe people would be less disinterested in politics, if we were actually choosing between different treatments - instead of different brands of concealer - to treat our various collective cases of chicken pox.
The perfect setup is a journey, not a destination. You will never be “done”, so enjoy the process.
