It is never about children. It is about surveillance with a thin vernier to vocalize imbeciles. Trusting government is a time honored tradition of the worst of incompetent humans. Picture a world where Google Meta and Amazon are the Kremlin. Think of the information they have, cameras on every house, every bit of your life history online and in government. All power that can be abused will be abused eventually. The ownership over your digital footprint is direct ownership over you in the end. The only effect this has on the future is the subjugation and theft of these children’s future autonomy.
