I'd like to share a topic of discussion with you all: fear mongering about the internet and its dangers, 2019 edition.

It's been a matter of personal reflection and perplexity how there seems to be a massive push to make the internet children safe in the last few years. More precisely, since the year of invention of the Iphone (2007) when the internet-accessibility potentialities of smartphones had been revealed and made a marketable product by Mr. Jobs.

Coincidentally, many tiny event bubbles started forming and wrecking havoc into the internet we all knew and loved at the time. If previously, owning a personal computer and working an internet connection was considered tech savvy, with the passage of time the user friendly interfaces has brought it to level with a wider, but despite that -adult- audience. But the toy-like shape of the smartphones, their bright colors and smooth edges made it simple and "safe" enough for parents to trust their children with it.

If any of you is a 4chan refugee, the year 2007 cca will be familiar to you as the endless summer, aka the time where the influx of new users made it impossible to preserve chan culture and instruct the newcomers with timely fashion, leading to the widespread decay of imageboards as a whole.

Youtube itself had to quickly adapt to this influx of children, which left to their own accord and with little supervision started exploring their sexuality to the pleasure of pedophiles worldwide, leading to the ever increasing surveillance (that today is culminating into AI-guided censorship).

And with those two big rocks conquered, the rest of the internet felt like adapting was the profitable choice. Facebook, Tumblr, and many others have since adapted to the playful, pastel colored & safe child-friendly standard, with many more social networks spawning from this seemingly unanimous wave.

Now, connecting the dots, where does this path lead us? Why is it so important to make this enviroenment child friendly when children are only a part of the equation and not the whole? Why should the adult internet adapt to the newfags, and not the other way around, enforcing loss of privacy to keep the younger ones away from content not adequate to them?

My personal opinion is this. The media companies, toghether with many countries percieve the internet as the natural, most convenient and widespread electrical nanny. If the television was previously used to grow children (which also received heavy ruling for the same reason) now the next successor to it should indeed be the device many children already carry in their pocket! In this twisted world moved by an economy that prevents many parents from teaching anything worthwhile to their offsprings, we resort to judging the parenting capabilities of an everchanging and ultimately uncontrollable cluster of software, over what should be the healthy alternative of preventing these children from accessing the internet all toghether and experiencing instead a normal childhood, surrounded by their own kind.

<What are your thoughts about it?

<What's the better solution in this case scenario?

Keep in mind the same mentality is hemorraging also over the movie industry and videogames aswell!

On one hand, being childsafe has kept kids from being able to access a lot of illicit materials (making improvised exploding devices, access to drugs, etc)

On the other hand, we just keep catering to the wants and needs of the youths resulting in shorter attention spans due to easier access to instant gratification.

Obviously, what needs to happen is for people to stop catering to the wants of kids.

Back then, newfags were told to 'lurk moar', games required you to read manuals before playing, and there was a sizable audience for slow-burner books and movies.

Today, newfags are being fed sources, games are 'press x for awesome', and nobody watches movies that aren't capeshit or some other popular shit with the same copy pasted stories over and over, let alone read books.

But it would be naive to think that companies and other powerful people would stop this practice.

Not only is being a nanny great for PR, it sells, and is a great way to make people conform to ones' worldview.

They do it with no one's consent. Only their boardrooms of investors and special interest groups deciding these sorts of changes on society, unlike less "private" countries, where they usually have someone corrupt and vile enough already in office to do this kind of stuff from the get-go. Just kill them.

>They do it with no one's consent.

They do have your consent.

Facebook, YouTube and every other online service have policies available for anyone to read.

The moment you use their services, it's implied that you have consented to their policies.

You do not decide whether they make these changes. Only the people who pay for their companies and order their laws do. Kill them.

If you wouldn't want your children to be accessing disgusting media, why are you digesting it yourself?

I wish I could go back to the days when I had more innocence. Frankly, I'm so sick of the world's immoral agenda, I yearn for a life within a community of like minded individuals who build each other up. I envy the amish.

Few even recognize the spiritual destruction of merely watching a 'conservative' youtuber bringing awareness of demonic teachings in the media, schools and culture. I'm at the point where I've unsubscribed to most of these commentators because their content isn't edifying, but rather desensitizes viewers to these horrors.

Children shouldn't have access to youtube uncensored. It is too easy to fall down the rabbit hole. Until a young person's abstract thinking has been developed along with a strong moral compass, everything they absorb should be supervised and discussed to help them become their own critical thinkers.

If there is anything children should watch, it should be educational and provide access to information difficult to reach otherwise. If you live in Australia, here's what a Canadian moose looks like, or if you live in Canada, here's what a kangaroo looks like. Here's a documentary on how cars are made. Here's what a remote African tribal song and dance looks like. Compare it to your own culture. Here's what some of the most powerful classical concertos sound like performed by the top musicians of recording history. Fill them with good and wholesome content so that it is easily recognizable when they see modern media.

But never unsupervised. It's too easy for anything to slip in, like a comment on youlube or a news article.

The longer you abstain from modern media be it youtube, movies, tv, vidja, the stronger of a negative reaction you will have when you introduce that media back into your diet. You'll realize even what you thought was 'tame' is repulsive. Go out, read a book, educate yourself, and learn a new skill or hobby.

And those children not in our communities, what about them? Are you going to dictate to another parent what they can and can't teach their children? Parents who let the tv do the babysitting need to grow up themselves.

I'm honestly the most scared about how specific and user-targeted algorithms control every contentstream and how AI has the capability to fundamentally alter a user's mind

I'm not concerned about this and I'd rather it wasn't raised at all. There's already enough censorship of the internet and the last thing we need is to give leftists and politicians more power over us by giving them another seemingly moral reason to take our freedoms away for our own good.

This is just a symptom of a much larger problem that should be dealt with first. You mentioned that there is an economy that prevents us from raising their own kids, and that's true, the government robbed us to the point where it is now necessary for both of the parents to work to support the family, while leaving our children to be raised by propaganda in public schools and by parentless hooligans outside of schools, either that, or for whatever reason you have single moms who unwittingly do much worse for the development of their children than anything the internet can throw at them.

It's just first-world-tier nitpicking at non-issues out of boredom while ignoring the fact that it is a blessing upon humanity.

Same here, there are times when an algorithm (in any site) goes a little crazy with some results when you search something innocent like toys or something.

I miss the 1990s-2000s internet where you were told never to never identify yourself and give out personal details. The same risks are there, just people ignore it more.
