This Meta's stupid attempt to not get sued for addicting kids. They want to force the problem on the entire world, so they cant be held responsible. They are pushing these same laws in several countries, Brazil just passed a near identical law.
Meta would steal your right to privacy, and force you to identify yourself to every single electronic device you own just to avoid being held liable for harming children. Absolutely disgusting. Zuck belongs in the deepest pits of hell.
Yah. On top of that, big tech cos often likes high regulatory burden. Ideally different between countries and jurisdictions. Big tech can afford compliance teams and w/e else they need. But! High regulatory burden is harder for upstart competitors. And very hard or impossible for tiny projects.
The same with technical burden. Like browser engines, used to be simple, now, extremely complex with wasm and webgl and stuff. There are only a few left standing. And some only barely.
The higher the burden, the more big tech is entrenched.
