“No governments care” is an outright lie. Sure, there’s always more they could do, but the EU is at the forefront of regulating tech. And that’s a big conglomeration of countries and their respective governments.
This, I think, is a problem that is caused by tech illiteracy in governments. I mean shit, even I barely understand the things you brought up, and I’m a millennial. The boomers (mostly) that run governments DEFINITELY don’t understand those things. At least, at the level someone like you may. And that’s a problem that needs to be solved, because ignorant people are easily taken advantage of.
I still believe my point stands, but I absolutely agree with you.
The Liberal government in Canada just announced “The Online Harms Act”, and a leading Canadian legal scholar/lawyer and information privacy advocate, Michael Geist, says that it’s actually good legislation (for the most part).
So, there’s movement in the right direction in other jurisdictions, too.
(Then again, our Senate is currently working on a bill to require age verification for porn, which we all know won’t work and is a massive potential privacy quagmire.)
Edit: lol, autocorrect “Lobster” instead of “Liberal”.

We can, but a lot more flags need to feature a hammer and sickle for that.

Bro, as a person living in a state that has imposed age verification for porn, it doesn’t work. At fucking ALL. Lmao
Either websites don’t give a fuck (xvideos.com) or they have outright removed themselves from the state (pornhub.com and all it’s sisters).
Not to mention that Twitter is practically a porn browser now.
