      What explanation are you even asking for? Why shouldn’t you believe fucking authoritarian propaganda? lmao??? That’s like asking why pushing over old people and laughing at them is bad; if you don’t get it, you won’t get it.

        Either I grossly misinterpreted what you said originally, or a bunch of you are daft.

        Explain to me how providing ID to websites is good. Explain to me how this is good for your data privacy. Uploading all your photo ID and whatnot into some private corp or government database, where it absolutely will be linked with your account, which is already grossly tracked across the internet in numerous ways. you’re just asking to have your ID attached to your online activities.

        Explain to me how OPs comment about better parenting is incorrect. Kids push boundaries and things that are forbidden are enticing.

        Furthermore, after you’ve attached your online profiles to your picture ID, it will be moot because there will be ways around it and the legitimate users end up being the suckers with their ID linked across the internet.

        Explain to me how firewalling Canada’s internet traffic and monitoring it all is good for us.

        This is all just to remove more of your anonymity, which we barely have nowadays anyways.

          You are clearly not reading the same thread I am. No one is defending those concepts; literally the opposite. You asked “why” in response to the statement that believing government propaganda is bad.

          Sure, better parenting is good in a general sense, and parents should be mindful of what their kids are watching, but better parenting won’t stop governments from invading your privacy because they don’t actually do it in order to protect kids. They do it to control people, and they SAY they’re doing it to protect kids in order to keep people complacent until it’s too late. Believing the government when they say they need to protect kids from media is believing authoritarian propaganda.
