Maybe everyone already knows this but I just found out during the last You Tube Contest what a sleazy unregulated place You Tube is.
Michael's video ended up on the most viewed in one day or week section a couple of times. What a shock to find the other kinds of videos on those pages.
I am disturbed on several levels.
1. There is no protection for kids or teenagers (that I know of).
2. The history of videos viewed is easily wiped out with a click.
3. The kinds of videos beyond the hard core porn that are most viewed is also disturbing.
It seems to me that the fall out for society that will occur in the next couple of decades is going to be brutal. I don't know how kids can view this stuff and be ok. I don't know how kids won't get sucked in.
I wonder how many marriages will be hurt? How many more sexual predators registered? How many false accuasations in court? How many will view same sex relationships as an alternate choice or a right of passage?
What are you doing to keep your kids safe? Keeping the internet out of the bedrooms doesn't protect them when no one is home.
Perhaps I am too much an alarmist?
