The European Commission preliminarily found Pornhub, Stripchat, XNXX and XVideos in breach of the Digital Services Act (DSA) for failing to protect minors from being exposed to pornographic content on their services.

      It’s not eugenics if you just confiscate them at birth. This is already being done with severely unfit parents

        One: that’s not what was suggested. OP said parental verification/authorization before birth.

        Two: you’re proposing something like residential schools instead. Which, even if you don’t agree constituted genocide, was still pretty bad.

        I’m not advocating for our government’s insane privacy-violating measures. Just pointing out that OP’s proposal is worse. There’s got to be better ways to protect children than “police state” or “genocide.”

          I cannot believe the downvoting coming your way for this.

          On one - how the abuse of this cannot be foreseen by the most clueless person is beyond me.

          On two - are people under the impression that the current child welfare system is adequate for the children that are currently in it? What about that system makes them think it would be suitable to increase the number of children in care.

          Fucking mental.

            Yeah, I almost wrote a whole counterpoint on how horrible the current child welfare system is and how nearly every trained professional agrees that breaking up families should only be the last resort in the most extreme circumstances, but I had a feeling this thread wasn’t the target audience for that particular reality.

          I’m not proposing anything, I’m saying that if you’re a drug addict or a violent criminal, this already happens so it’s not that far-fetched.

          Rather than going to residential schools, these children usually go to relatives who can actually take care of them, or if that’s not an option they might go to the admittedly not ideal system we already have for children whose parents are dead or just completely absent.
