when kids long ago were told not to talk to strangers or to get into cars with strangers, they werent blaming kid who did and got hurt, they were trying to stop it

social media has massive dangers that are barly understood by most who use them

if you think we can stop predators from offshore who use and exploit the privacy of things people post online, feel free to tell u how we will do it
