Children today can encounter harmful material online with alarming ease, including violent, sexual and self-harm content. While this is often treated as a moderation failure, the deeper cause is economic.

    I would accept a compromise that bans targeted advertising. Static ads have been around for probably as long as writing, and they’re not great but they’re not the nightmare spy dystopia.

      My proposed exception is that you can have physical static ads advertizing the business they are posted on the property of or products/services sold in said business. Digital ads have the same rules. You can only advertize your products/services on the site where they are sold.

      Otherwise no ads. I dream of a world where marketing majors are unhirable.
