I don't really understand why it is so bad for kids to know about sex from a very young age. As long as the sources are reliable and suitable (ie. not porn, but sex education) for children, this age-old taboo can be gotten rid of with time. At least my parents talked about it freely when I was a child, and it's made things much easier for me (my first time was two days ago). We even compare experiences.
I'm surprised we don't have any of this bullshit in Finland yet. Not many telemarketers, no companies selling data (too visibly), no DSL caps, four cellular providers available everywhere and low prices. The internet connections are at very reasonable prices at least in big cities (although in certain smaller ones there's a monopoly on DSL service which pretty much sucks), and no bandwith/transfer/usage time caps whatsoever. We have a choice of several providers of DSL connections as well as several ISPs that use those connections. Cellular service is really cheap, cheaper than landlines, and there is enough competition to keep it there.
How do you feel about Samuli Torssonen's imitation of you?
Here is an example. (The quality has improved much from the first ones. The very first ones were no good for non-finnish speakers, the later ones are much better)
