Regulations

So in class Wednesday we continued our discussion on NMT regulations pertaining to policy and censorship. Here's my thing.......the Internet is just too new yet for anyone to come up with the best way to handle regulating it. I think thus far everyone working on it has done a good job but there will always be people that think there is too much regulation on the Internet and those that will always think there's not enough. No one will ever be able to please everyone just like most things in life. For the most part, though, I think there is enough regulation for me as a parent to feel okay with my kids being on it. Of course I will now and always keep an eye on what my children are looking at and who they are talking to because no matter how many regulations you put on something there are always ways around it.

I agree, we can never please everyone. There are a lot of ideas out there and like you said the internet is still really new so it may take time to come up with the best way to regulate the internet.
