> The European Commission is set to unveil an EU Kids Act proposal restricting minors' access to platforms such as Instagram, TikTok and YouTube

YouTube is the video museum and is crucial for formation. Badly maintained, but it is where we find cultural video material and its access in civilized societies can only be granted.

> From three to 13, children can access child-friendly services under adult supervision

At a fraction of that age, some of us had been reading masterpieces without any supervision.

The article does not seem to tackle the elephant in the room: how to ensure that total, ___total__ anonimity is granted to users. (Recent news were about needing a google or apple account and certified device in europe to access the sites. Of course, we do not sign contracts with google or apple.)

Again, the spread information remains about forbidding access to resources that instead must be maximixed in use (the video museum); about feeding kids what could be trash for direly deficient minds instead of the real intellectual material we absorbed even when small children; the biggest questions about Principles (Dignity, the Decency of society - ref. anonimity) remain unclarified when they are most important.

That infra-humanity must be wiped off history.

The grandma will now take your computers away, kids. I'd say 10 years too late as GenZ already happened.

Really exhausting this tyranny of the commission elected by no one that is totally morally corrupt and the power tool of a few lobbies to advance their agenda like censoring and so.

It is because of them that the trust in Europe is at an all time low and that nationalist political movements are gaining so much traction in European countries.

They don't respect the citizen will but then pretend to not understand when far right is winning election all over Europe.
