Re: [kictanet] kictanet Digest, Vol 104, Issue 51
Collectively, do we really need rules and regulations to uphold "traditional values"? IMO this is a social issue and not something that requires technical controls. On 13/01/2016 15:34, kictanet-request@lists.kictanet.or.ke wrote:
Having said that, notice how this conversation is slowly turning to a discussion about morals and ethics.
Not sure, if the outcome will be fruitful in that regard.
As a way forward, I would suggest enforcing of certain factors such as parental control - for all OTTP related services. Who knows the videos our children share with their friends on Whatsapp, IG ...
Specifically, my opinion is a local used legislation must be inclusive and multifaceted. Mere blocking of content might be a simplistic approach to a complex situation.
