| No Person Under The Age Of 21 Should Be Allowed Write Access To The Internet. |
| The internet has been destroyed by youth, Europeans, and Google. It's time for this madness to stop. I can't even do a simple internet search for shoes without some amount of time weeding out the drivel from myspace, anti-American collectivist crud, and google link-through sites.
If this doesn't work, then next are the Europeans and Google. |

All right let's get rid of all youths off the internet.
I wonder what would happen
1. Myspace would crash
2. Youtube would crash
3. Internet security would go down since everyone's an adult.
4. The cost for using the internet would skyrocket because the major "Free Sites" that competed with
the Paid sites will be out of business.
5. Teenage pregnancy would skyrocket since they are not meeting online but in the bedrooms.
6. Child abduction would skyrocket since more kids would be out in the streets and parks playing
unprotected while "adults" surfed the net. |

I can't think of one good reason for any young person to have access. |

I'm 14, and I've had internet for 4 years, and I find it super easy to use. On this site, some
people refer to me as a genius, maybe not, but if I'm smarter than someone older than 21, either
they're stupid, or I'm a living Einstein. Now, tell me. Which one is more likely. But don't worry,
my cat's retarded too and we still love her. :) |

No because they adults need to look stuff up and all tht |
| |
|
| |
|

|
We have the same rights on the internet as any adult because most of the sites are made for kids and
teens not adults. And we dont complain when you adults decide to play video games |

You got to be kidding |

The internet can also have educational stuff on it too. Also, there are fun games on it. |

Iam a teenageer and just because there are some idiots out there that think its so cool to post
viruses on the internet it does not mean that all teenagers should be banned from the internet where
they can be educated. |

If so how are you going to do research in uni. |

I think that is wrong. Every computer can have programs to block pages of certain material so there
is no need to stop them from using the internet. |

My wonderful son is 19, and he is online. :-(
Teens are not Bubonic Plague, you viper. |

Everyone has the right to use the Internet no matter what age they are and whether or not you think
what you are trying to do is more important. |

Everyone deserves unlimited access to the Internet. It shouldn't be a market to sell the right to
use the Internet. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Uhhhhh NOOOOO!!!! People under 21 should be allowed!!! |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
No. Just no.
How would they determine whether the user was under 21?
Why 21? Why not 18, where it is legal in the UK to buy alcohol, or 16, in the US where it is legal
to drive, or no limit at all? Is the Internet a worse thing than alcohol or cigarettes? Is the
Internet more dangerous than driving?
And you can go to hell, Americans ruin the Internet for the rest of the world, not the other way
around. |

This is ridiculous!
I know some teenagers get loads of viruses and things from the Internet; maybe even watch rude
videos. But that doesn't mean the Internet is a bad thing.
Speaking as a teenager myself, I love the Internet. It allows me to speak to my friends, meet new
people, and express my views on websites like this! |

Europeans!? Are you going to blame a whole land mass for your inconvenience on finding some
comfortable foot apparel?
I smell a Internet Nazi, why don't you set up your own superior method of finding quick, free
information that's free of us 'impurities that are a blot on YOUR Internet'? |
| |

The Internet has provided numerous positive things. School research, entertainment, and the list
goes on. I have an idea, let's take away your Internet service. That way, you can't leave ridiculous
comments on this website. And are you racist against the Europeans? All Americans have some sort of
a heritage with Europeans. It's just a matter of how far back you have to go in time to find out
where your family comes from. |

Whatever......The young people use the Internet for school work and to keep in touch with their
friends... |

Every human being on this planet has the right to access the information help by the internet. To go
against this and ban the internet would cause great problems and probably lead to a collapse in our
society's social structure. |

As both a European and a youth i find your argument offensive. Everyone has the right to do whatever
they want on the Internet it is called freedom of expression etc;
What gives you Americans the right to get so high and mighty, saying that we have wrecked the
Internet. If anything, America has wrecked the Internet. As you Americans would say |

Everyone should have access to internet not everyone does bad things and put your foolish opinion
aside |

I agree with tywhyhity |

I disagree with this debate. Everyone should have equal access to the Internet. However, there
should be some banning on particular sites that people less than 21 years of age visit. Some sites
are strictly for those over 21, but banning everyone under 21 from posting and using the Internet is
crazy. Many people under 21 are students and use the Internet as form of learning and for research.
Their input is valuable. I agree that many do post stupid things, but that is because they are
immature. Just overlook it. Learn to use the Internet. Learn to distinguish between adult entered
content and juvenile content. It is not hard. No. I do not believe banning those under 21 from the
Internet is a good idea. However, your comment about banning Europeans from the Internet is racist.
You should be ashamed to even think of banning someone from the Internet based on their race. Maybe
you should be banned. |

Wow I could go on a rant here... I understand where you're coming from- some kids aren't mature
enough to post, while others need to be kept off for their safety. However, many other kids are very
knowledgeable in other topics and areas- they should have all rights to post. |
| |

Well, it's obviously impossible to restrict who can post content to the Internet, since there is no
government authority that proposes to regulate this anywhere in the Western world. I agree that
mountains of poorly-written, inaccurate and fanciful material is posted throughout the World Wide
Web by looney far right and left groups and many others, of course. Yet with the rise in blogging,
photo and video sharing sites, such as Flickr and YouTube, we should all prepare ourselves for much
more of this material.
Government regulation, however, is not the way to go and we can't single out those under 21 and ban
them from posting. In fact, a 20 year old may very well be more qualified to write on a specific
topic than a 40 year old with no writing or analytical skills; and sadly, there are plenty of them
as well. |

Lol. Maybe you Americans should do what the Beijing government is trying to do and set up your own
special restricted version of the internet. After you've got your electronic blinkers on, you won't
have to be bothered by all those anti-American crazies out there who object to you invading
countries and killing innocent people for no reason.
Oh, and in case you've forgotten, it was one of those Europeans, Tim Berners-Lee, at one of those
collectivist government projects, the CERN scientific laboratory in Switzerland, who developed the
World Wide Web in the first place. If you stick to Telnet and FTP you can probably avoid most of the
stuff you object to. Either that or try AOL. AOL was designed for people like you. |
