  1. 😂😂😂 You can’t have 1 rule for one big tech and no rule for the other . Rule for everyone or for no one .

  2. Ban the content instead.

    Kids are wrecked because of the dribbling dross that adults post. You'll never change the moron adults, and kids will always find a way to access.

    Ergo, ban the content.

    Amateur porn clips don't need to be plastered everywhere on places like Twitter. Adults can and ought to go where they actually need to, for that material.
