Now I can go back outside and stare at the decommissioned stoves of my run down industrial town.

The law at hand is about banning social media usage for kids in general. Maybe people would be more open to compromise if verification was limited to the adult stuff.

are miracles of bizarchitecture and non-conformance. And often rely on the courts sorting out all possible problems something an automated car may not rely on.

Using the U.S. as reference for med prices is rather suboptimal.

At least until something happens to uranus.

also issue updates including security updates? Won't this stop people from using the store leaving potentially vulnerable machines?

"Not locking your door" is a bad example because it exploits a physical weakness not a psychological. Society does not expect people to be invulnerable but it generally expects them to control their desires in the face of temptation.

Hacking is also a bad example because it circumvents the consent of the system. People who click on a ragebait do with their full consent.

Nobody pretends that calling people weak-minded will necessarily change their behavior. However, if you move freely in public you should be able to take at least a little bit responsibility for your actions. And in the case of kids restricting their screentime should be manageable as a parent.

They will offer 4 billion for it, then try to sell it for 40.
Or maybe accept 10 ebays for a 10% discount on Sony?

- Multiple countries are planning age verification for social media with definitions of social media so broad that it might even cover traditional forums, chats etc.. If we knew the system was only required for porn pages it could be easily avoided and would not cause so much controversy.

- Bringing up offline cases where privacy might be improved are not helpful for online cases where anonymity used to be the default.

There are lots of people who use Facebook, Twitter etc. anonymously especially political dissidents or people with lifestyles society doesn't accept. You post in a forum where anonymity is the default why you think people have different expectations from social media?

Livelong immunosuppressants for something you only need for a few years seems out of proportion for me.
