There are a lot of GOP-controller legislatures in the USA pushing through so-called “child protection” laws, but there’s a toll in the form of impacting people’s rights and data privacy. Most of these bills involve requiring adults to upload a copy of their photo ID.

Governments should never stop into the role of a parent.

If the alternative to a child has a bad parent, is everyone gets the government as a parent. I would rather take the former and not the latter
