  20. So what? on FCC to Develop 'Super V Chip' To Screen All Content · · Score: 1

    Other than adding somewhat to the cost of the device(s), so what? Nobody's stopping adults from accessing whatever content they want to. Nobody's forcing you to use it. It's just an option that parents can use, if they wish, to _help_ control what their children have access to on equipment the parent provides.

    I know that it's not a fix-all but if parents are concerned about what their children are watching, this is just one more tool they can use (along with actually monitoring the children, of course).

    Everyone acts like this is a move by the morality police to stop legitimate adults from accessing their Mexican Donkey Porn(tm).
