Paul is clearly interested in and has a knowledge of IT, Chris is clearly interested in and has knowledge of politicical issues. Are they 'obsessed' with these subjects to the point of them being harmful to them? No.

There is clearly a demand to stop people being scammed, for children to be driven to suicide, for paedophiles to be prevented from accessing children etc etc. Whether the Online Safety Act is the best way to achieve these aims or is working as well as it should in all these areas is what's being discussed.
Richard, I should imagine most people on here want children protected. But what you are not getting is that the cack-handed way this government is going about it not only disadvantages adults as well, but it will be ineffective as kids will simply use VPNs instead.

What I am saying is that we need to find a more targeted method that actually works. The Online Safety Act is not the way to do it and creates a huge amount of work for the tech companies.
