Parents should actually parent if they don't want their kid using certain apps and websites. The app was 17+ and if the parents did the bare minimum with parental controls it wouldn't have been accessible to the child.
But on the other hand if children using a service is reliably and consistently resulting in negative outcomes for the children and their families, it seems reasonable to suggest something should be done. And that something could be 'companies don't provide chat bots that allude to children murdering their parents'.
Taking a legally or logically 'correct' position on something when it's actively harming people isn't really a morally defensible position in my mind.
If it could be proved that porn sites are overwhelmingly a net negative for society, would you agree that they should all be shut down?
Or are you saying that there is literally nothing you consider acceptable to outlaw when it comes to what you're allowed to watch?
But what I do know is that the line definitely shouldn't be drawn at porn, alcohol, or immature AI chatbots.
A: Illegal things.
Seems this exchange has run its course.
When smoking's health problems became well-known we only banned advertising (and maybe selling to minors?), so maybe we still remembered the lesson from Prohibition.
