With the years I learned some rules of behavior on internet, but I wonder if there is some kind of extensive guide for parents who are not experienced with technology.

For example, I don’t think content blockers are a good idea for teenagers. It works for kids, but teenagers will find workarounds because parents were lazy about teaching them the dangers and instead used a spyware app.

Here is a bad written list of some obvious rules:

  • Be anonymous
  • Use private social media accounts
  • Do not tell any personal information
  • Use ad blockers
  • Learn to recognize ads
  • Learn to recognize AI generated text and images
  • Learn to recognize scam
  • Understand consent
  • Learn to prevent blackmail
  • Learn to prevent grooming
  • Learn how fake pornography is and the unrespectful content

But I wish there was some kind of step by step guide

    Do not post anything political

    i agree with the underlying point, but everything is political. The real point is not to post anything outside the overton window. This country talks alot about “free speech” and whatnot. But if you start speaking out against genocide, imperialism, capitalism, etc., you might find your life ruined. Thus this “anonymous” account.

      I mean anything even remotely questionable from the government’s perspective. A meme is not worth ruining your life over.

      Especially if we’re talking about children, like here - child martyrs are especially tragic.
