Surely VPN photo ID checks would increase water usage!?!? Jokes aside, teenagers can be smart at evading censorship. Should a democratic society play a cat and mouse game with a more motivated and more nimble adversary, who will often be smarter too? Are they not aware that it's something they would have to force on everyone's device?
GDPR cookie banners are a good example of poorly executed government meddling, the Online Safety Bill could yet be even more annoying, and we're still learning about the lies and ineptitude seen by the Post Office scandal.
Why entertain playing a cat and mouse game like that?
I don't think we want to see how invasive government computer meddling can be.
People coming up with these ideas need to think really carefully about what the actual results could be once they have gone through committee and started bothering their constituents. Perhaps more importantly, they should remember 16 year olds are going to be able to vote soon. |
