This is why I teach my kids to lie they are grown ups on the internet. Fuck big tech deciding what is and isn't appropriate for my kids, with no way to override it as a parent. Their legal department CYA policies interest do not align with my and my kids' interest.
Moreover, they're fighting the previous war. The real needs of me and my children to be safe online, aren't about porn and swearing. It's about death threats and doxxing, about scammers trying to get your passwords. Here's the thing: That has NOTHING to do with being a minor. EVERYONE needs those protections. Big tech is intentionally focusing attention on children so they can keep getting away with spending zero dollars on stopping bad actors
