It's not going to work. Kids are smarter than congressmen. It's so easy for them to find a workaround, they'll be online within minutes. Just ask Australia how theirs is going.

They don't care because that isn't anywhere near the actual goal or point. The point is to continue moving the needle for what is considered "the norm" to remove one of the few places left where you can be anonymous/untraceable.

It's part of a much broader push to get real identity somehow inseparably merged with our tech, so everything you do can be traced back to your real life identity because it's all connected to it by default.

I doubt this was ever really about protecting kids.
