As a parent, this is a parenting/personal issue, fuck off and please spend my money doing useful things (like supporting health care, or housing) not attempting to protect my children.
How about just let parents take basic precautions when they let their kids access the Internet like setting up a firewall. It’s a parents responsibility to manage what content their kids see, not the government. If they want to help parents then do some self labeling regulations so the content is easier to block instead.
Here’s your new regulation: all porn sites must add an ageRating=“18” meta tag to the html header. Done, now you have an easy way to set up a browser to block porn.
Under Bill S-210, commercial websites that make pornography available would be required to verify that users who access the material are at least 18 years old. But the bill leaves the specifics of how this would be done to be determined later, through regulations. Critics have said this age verification process could compromise user privacy if it requires people to share personal information, such as photo identification.
On top of the privacy aspect I feel like this must be really easy to bypass with a minimum amount of effort.
The vague nature in the meantime seems like a massive red flag.
