Older adults act like teenagers and younger children don't know how to get around "bans" and "blocks" or don't know their way around the internet in general.
I think the opposite is the case.
I'd wager that the average teen knows more about and has more experience using private messaging services, VPNs, IP blockers etc... than I do.
Remember when using proxies on school computers was all the craze?
"Messaging services and gaming sites, however, will not be restricted"
"Such legislation could push kids into “dangerous, unregulated parts of the internet”, Digital Industry Group Inc says - a fear also expressed by some experts."
“We don’t fence the ocean… but we do create protected swimming environments that provide safeguards and teach important lessons from a young age”
“I can’t think of any technology that exists at this point that can pull this off”
"More recently France introduced legislation requiring social media platforms to block access to children under 15 without parental consent. Research indicated almost half of users were able to circumvent the ban using a simple VPN."
This whole thing is probably going to fall flat on its face.
My mistake, I think the "abuse of trust" argument applies to teachers or social workers.
I don't know what the position was/is regarding adults in a consensual relationship who don't have a "position of trust" over their partner.
Anyways, Lily Allen is a good example of a "case-study".

This study was published 6 years ago, and basically tracks with most, if not all, of my life experiences from the age of let's say 10 up.
There are some issues still, such as the idea that the age of consent should be 14, but adults can't have sexual relations with 14 year olds because "abuse of trust" (this doesn't take into account adult inexperience vs. the teenager's experience), or the notion that children under 14 aren't as developed (sexually) as children who are 14 ("early bloomers" are ignored).
BUT, generally, it's a well-researched study that I think most people can agree with (if they're honest with themselves about their own experiences as "children"/teens).
Am I the only one whose Faceberg has turned into a semi-softcore porn site?
It's been 3 months.
I'd say that's enough of a break from posting.
I had a dream yesterday, where I was transported back to boarding school, back into one of my old dorms, surrounded by girls for a "film-night" (this would not be allowed in reality, as the girl's and boy's wings were seperated, and I got expelled before I would have moved to 6th form dorms which were closer to being mixed), watching essentially a documentary/expose on adult-child romance.
At the end, we got "gift-bags" which included "MAP" propaganda fliers, half a 6pack of beer, and other "goodies" (go on this website to chat etc... basically a Discord advert lol).
Even though it was a "good dream", I didn't do anything major. All I did was talk to the young teenage girls about my experiences; what I've seen.
Honestlty, for a moment, I thought it was reality. I thought it was a real memory replaying. I was speaking matter-of-factly, as if I was giving a presentation in class (university skill).
Point is, I'm still the same. And the reason I'm the same is because I'm not wrong, I'm not evil. I have no genuine reason to change my position on this.
It is not me who lives in an "alternate reality".
Good example of this is criticizing the wordsalad lobby and gay people for years, perhaps decades, and then after Oct 7th bringing out all the degenerate "Conservative" gays to "defend Israel".
Let's just all take a minute to remember that the IDF and Israeli government as a whole has a history; a veritable litany; a tome of text, of actual, unrestrained, brutal rape of all kinds, against adults, against men, against women and girls, against boys (this is a particular target, there is recording of an IDF soldier joking about shooting children in the balls), against the elderly or infirm or disabled.
And what's even crazier, in addition to the prison rape "scandal" (it's systemic, so it shouldn't be seen as an isolated case) which shows male IDF guards/soldiers engaging in sexual violence, you also have many reports of female guards "supervising" or "initiating" the violence at other locations or other times.
So, basically, both Israeli men and women, who are mandated to serve in the IDF or some other defense-related organization, engage in acts of the most gross inhuman sexual violence against an entire people, as a pass-time.
The IDF is a terror-organization. They represent the "terror-state" of Western nightmares (although with a Jewish star, as opposed to an Islamic Crescent).
This is why BDS is important, regardless of your political position. This is why Palestine is important, regardless of your political position.
Palestine represents true nationalism and true liberation.
Israel represents gay "gender-neutral" gang-rape.
But it can still be an excuse to deflect attention if the person making the excuse is being made to feel they committed a big crime and need a scapegoat.
Oh wait, that's usually the case for the adult women, too.
Fine comb. And again, that's probably why the case is being dropped in a few months. It is being dropped because he literally "did nothing wrong" (like his BIL says).
OK....But this is way different to many peoples' moods earlier today/yesterday, where people were all "kill the pedo!!!!!!! Raaaaaaarrrrrghhh!!!!"
Mr. Beast exploits people, this is known. The guy's brother-in-law even is one of the "leakers" of Mr. Beast's "abuse" of workers.
I think, if I was a teen (even at 16 or later at 21), and this was my first time interacting with cops, and it was something serious like that, I think I'd do a plea deal or whatever else, anything they told me, so I could make the situation go away.
When I was over 18, I got caught peeing in public and basically froze instead of running away, all because I didn't know what to do and didn't want to upset the person who caught me.
Careful, you're veering into "#beliveallwomen" territory with "accusations take years to come out". I'm not saying it's not true, but you have to take a fine comb.
Point is, people need to temper themselves. Not everything needs a witchhunt as a response. This is what I mean when I say "Puritan".
I just hope that anyone who sees this realizes just how far society has gone with the "pedophile/pedophilia!!!" charge and the stigma.
It's just like "racist" or any "ist" or "ism".
It is used so often nowadays especially (considering how society has progressed age-restriction wise), many times to publicly destroy innocent people, and not only them, but their families, and their family's families.
Is there actual abuse, rape etc... Of course, just like, if someone goes out and actually hangs a Black person from a tree, yeah, that's uh you know, a "hate crime;a crime of racial/ethnic hatred". That doesn't mean, "White lives don't matter!".
Fuckin' ey.
It's not that hard to stay afloat, people.
You couldn't tell that I was being facetious, are you serious? I used a meme-photo in the post for crying out loud. I talk about "civnats" (something from fucking 2016).
Your panties are in a twist over that?!?!?!!?
Yes, uh, you're kinda showing that now, appealing to emotion and literally calling me a disgusting criminal, even though I've done nothing wrong except admitting to liking cartoon photos of children, which you admit that you produce.
When I say you're too afraid, this is what I'm talking about.
You have an insane overly emotional reaction to a simple fact: lolicon art is art involving sex with children, and pedophiles like that art and many lolicon or "lolicons" (i.e. people who view the "art") or lolicon artists are open pedophiles.
The "mind-prison", if you can't tell, is litearlly "I'm not a pedophile or have any pedophilic tendencies even though I draw "art" of children having sex with adults or view "art" of children having sex". That is, quite literally, at least to me, a "mind-prison".
I don't block anyone, and I don't want you to block me, because I feel like we got along fine for so many years.
I don't know man, whatever...
