In a just world, even asking for this would be a death sentence for a company.

"We want this child safety bill to protect our corporation from children please" is such a good look

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Mafia lobbies to get criminal law to be rewritten to remove punishments for crimes.

What an odd thing to want.

[–] sidebro@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Almost like they don't give a shit if they harm kids

[–] rayyy@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's either kids or profits for Zuck. Which is more important?

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

insert small mexican girl meme

Why not both?

[–] NM_Gringo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Or know that they already have harmed kids.

I'm sure this is partially what these ID laws are about, they know their product is harmful to not just kids but EVERYONE, but they don't want EVERYONE to stop using it, so what's the answer? Ban the kids

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

Almost like they want to profit by harming kids.

How about just fix your god damn product so people won't constantly sue you? Business nowadays is just completely asinine

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 1 points 2 months ago

At a certain size of a company, law suits are just the cost of doing business.

[–] grandma@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Won't somebody think of the shareholders?

🧑‍⚖️: "But what if your best revenuing content creators are children?"
🤓: "That's why I need you to rewrite it."
👶🧒: "Wait... wat?!"

🤓: "Don't worry. I'll protect you guys."

We are merely the vessel with which to produce harm.

Facefuck, 2026.

[–] chahn.chris@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago

They want to get products in the hands of very young children to create customers for life.

This is the happy meal strategy on steroids.

[–] skvlp@lemmy.wtf 3 points 2 months ago

Almost as if the real goal is not protecting children, but surveillance.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Legislators: "and we just have to pass it guys, sorry. No choice in the meter. They propose it, we pass it for them. That's how this all works"

[–] minorkeys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Laws to allow companies to permanently fuck up our children....

[–] Bristlecone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

They'll get it too as long as they push it through before the midterms, maybe even after depending on what those look like

[–] necrobius@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Why won't they please think of the children!?

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Let's just make brutal fucking murder and large theft legal already! /s
