Yes clearly ISPs, OSs, and everyone involved who is making money should provide easier and better tools for protecting kids from adult content.

But a state mandated thing associated with my ID is... iffy.

People have perfectly good reasons for wanting to protect their privacy.

But they have done that and so a government mandated solution is warranted.

Look into the Chinese identification systems associated with internet access to see where this leads. It isn't good.

We don’t have to do it the same way the Chinese do. We can implement it in a bad way or in a good way.
