🐍 Not shocked by #Meta or the kind of people they put in charge of their “digital experiences for kids”¹.

Exactly the kind of person to entrust with social media #ageverification (calls, live videos, photographs etc.).

I mean they already love scanning messages for child sexual abuse material via #ChatControl².

☑️ Entrust children's data to the people literally caught exploiting them, all under the banner of protecting kids?

Sexting is digital and getting hit on by a pedophile is certainly an experience.
