Support the idea of limiting addictive apps/websites for minors, but think that China's implementation of government overreach and bio-authenticating for every online service is way too privacy invasive. Tho not sure how one could solve it in a privacy respecting way... Maybe just have a short workshop for parents about how to setup parental control once their kid gets enrolled into primary school?

Anyone smarter got any ideas?

Even though I think minors on the web is a terrible idea, and I don't/didn't allow my children to use devices, I oppose any legislation dictating how I raise my children.

I’d love to live in Utah if the state wasn’t run by a church.

For half of a second, I actually thought the headline was indicating that the ban (non-adult) amounted to "pornography-only" during those hours.
