And there are some things that some people can't self-regulate about.

And we have always, as a culture, even in the freest societies in the West, we have always provided some guardrails around those things.

Maybe not yes or no guardrails, but certainly some guardrails have existed.

And we live in a time where most of the most destructive things are online and there are no guardrails at all.

I've noticed some conversation since being here that maybe Britain recently put an age gate in front of pornography.

Some states in America are doing that.

Obviously, there's challenges with it.

Are you giving the government access to information about who views pornography or who doesn't?

I think there's some real concerns about the way that that's going about.

But obviously, you can't live in a society where the average 12-year-old is seeing more breasts than King Solomon.

and we do and that's just a fact uh just like shutting down the world and then hitting restart is going to have an impact that we have not even begun to really reckon with yet the ubiquity of pornography for for men in particular and for children especially

course that's going to have unbelievable consequences.

And we've not even begun to grapple with those consequences.

And I would just say, as I said earlier about Candace Owens, so much of what we engage with online now is just rhetorical pornography.

It's just the same dopamine-inducing narcotic.

And we have not solved it.

It seems so obvious to me that children should not have access to technology, that adults have not yet figured out how to

condition themselves to use.

And listen, I'm one of the great beneficiaries of social media.

You guys are among the great beneficiaries of the social media age.
