Spying and mass surveillance are often rebranded as “child safety”.
There was even a Simpsons meme related to this:
“Won't somebody please think of the children?!”

Spying and mass surveillance are often rebranded as “child safety”.
A decade or two ago — a certain type of (state) "professional" was excited by the idea that you could track someone using public social-media data across multiple social-networks.
And, even improve the tracking using "private" data.
You should assume that not only does this technology exist now, but it is common.
The people who would use this against your interests won't care about robots-txt files, nobot hash-tags, or Mastodon name-spaces.
Act accordingly.

WTF!?!! Why do the web providers always want to listen to their users instead of simply offering correct honest services?
