We are in a Web 2.0 world. Web citizens create and manage their own content. We help each other combat viruses and threats. We help each other develop systems and solutions. Nothing is handed down. Filtering of certain content from minors is desirable, however, we should be empowered to choose what we want filtered and when it gets filtered. Harness the power of the internet and those skilled in it to assist you to protect minors, but don't treat us all as children.
