I wonder if this is to help identify children for better adds and pavlovian control. Just a dang odd initative.

The stupid part is the premiss is FALSE.

Like the politicians believe the internet is in the computer by default.

I have computers that have no access to the internet because they don't have wifi or ethernet cards.

The dang OS isn't internet.

I think make the laws on the sites that are harming people not the dang computer/OS. If twiter/X, facebook, ..etc, are harming people then restrict those places, not the people.

Maybe they need to then restrict the keyboard via law.
