This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

think as one matures and becomes an adult both become less bad

I disagree, I just think what makes them bad for adults is different from what makes them bad for kids.

But yeah, I agree with your conclusion. Regardless of your views here, surely requiring companies verify ID online is a bad idea.

IMO, parents should be the ones to choose how to regulate what their kids access, and they should be responsible for any harm their choices cause.
