It could affect those things. But like I agreed with before, it should be handled carefully and this is a big reason. I distinguish simply between Facebook for example and ma’s blog. One tries to make money by gathering data and targeting advertising to people intentionally addicted to a platform. The other is, you know… a blog.

If the law outlawed the online exchange of ideas, I too would be among its biggest opponents but that is probably a strawman.

As far as me parenting? Sure. With the benefit of hindsight, I’m not sure I was fit either, but I did my best.
