When did it become the responsibility of technology to parent a child?
Apparently soon after it became the neglected responsibility of adults to parent billionaires.
When they decided "protect the kids" was a good enough excuse to ramp up the surveillance state.
But it's not raising privacy concerns for underage children having to upload personal photos to god knows where?
It isn't like creepy rightwing ultrawealthy men with shadowy connections to pedophiles and other criminals own those companies they are uploading the photos to!
