Screen time needs to be regulated ? (aussie.zone)

We live in a world where screens have taken over. Our children's are showing early sign of anxiety, depression, eye issues , wearing glasses at young age because of being exposed to screens for long time.

Cigarettes had the same effect. Before it was normalised and people use to smoke anywhere and everywhere but then when scientists realised the harmful effects, it was regulated. Do you support regulating screentime as it has harmful effects of childrens and adults?

FYI- Australia banned social media for under 16 which is highly successful and other countries are trying to learn from Australia on how they defeated big tech.

Soon this hot take will be a reality and pedos , racist , bigots won't have a place to hide. We will catch em all even if we have to crush poor people and break 9-5s screen addiction. 9-5s are important for economy as they pay tax so have to keep them around. Without them nobody will be there to work and economy will crash so good news for you but we are coming for you and your screens.

This is not how any of this works, you can't solve a broken system by attempting to put everyone in jail. Pedophilia is literally a mental condition that these people have little control over. Most of these people need therapy and a decent life not imprisonment!

Jail is a horrible solution to crime. We need to realise that the majority of crime and discrimination is caused by inequality not ineffective punishment. The only people we should be putting in jail are rich people, they are the cause of most of our problems.

Also I did know that Australia was in the 5 eyes. But that doesn't mean we should increase surveillance, we should reduce it.

Any pedo sympathisers needs will be fully investigated and they should be monitored 24x7. I will be reporting you to Fed Police so that they can investigate your online activity for perophilia and hate. Goodluck!
