I really think we need a monitored internet for under 13s. The internet is just to fucked up at the moment. I never thought I would be someone advocating for this because i grew up on the wild west internet watching people getting beheaded and stuff. But all that is nothing compared to being bombarded with friendly, trustworthy (seeming) people that constantly spread lies and misinformation that shapes your world view.

100% agree. I also grew up on the wild west, websites and things that were shocking or straight up illegal and are harder and harder to find nowadays (especially if you're a kid that only uses apps on his/her smartphone).

When I was a kid, I knew that the things I was seeing were horrible, it was clear. But now kids watch complete misinformation that's presented in a serious and interesting way. They have no way to tell the truth from a lie anymore.
