Australian under 16 Teen social media ban

You can give your kids access to Minecraft without giving them access to public multiplayer servers where they might run into a pedo.

I’m not sure how I feel about the subject of the OP but this (IMHO) is clear; if there’s a platform where it’s possible to interact with children then there will be people who will try to use that platform to groom those children, sexually and otherwise.

Of course since they can’t vote, the government doesn’t care about their opinion. Thus why kids are picked as a target; they aren’t allowed to fight back. It makes them a great target for control freaks and bullies in positions of authority.

Well, maybe I don’t really know what the game is about(I know it’s a building/fighting type thing) but any online play where they interact with others online might be a danger. (Heck, live Lego cause out and out wars just between these kids)

I’m assuming there’s parental blockers you can install. (Not that any kid over 10 can’t figure out how to go around that easily).

Yeah, I’m a fretter. My daughter and her ex will decide, not me. Which is very fine with me. I’ve done my kid raisin’.

No worries.
