I'd like to see Meta execs prosecuted and jailed for allowing this, and exposing the members of Congress taking money from Meta.
In the USA the Overton window for these two aspects of life have very little overlap with the rest of the world. In only a very small number of other places do you see fathers teaching their teenager daughters how to handle guns.

And yeah, I guess if you don't care about tens of thousands of men perving on your daughter every day, upload away! Good thing men are never incredibly harassing or anything.
There's videos online of me doing stuff that would probably end my father's heartbeat in about 10 seconds. I'm not a prude. I'm someone that wishes people would think instead of playing this surprise Pikachu face constantly.
This general ignorance of long-term consequences, and this behavior of men... Neither are limited to Americans. I mean, I wish, it'd be an easy solution for me to avoid both, but alas.
This, like every other problem with pervasive brainrot technology, and hell good old fashioned ways to shut a brain off, will be talked about for years. Nothing will be done. Things in 10 years will feel normal and be unimaginable now. Thus is humanity for the 30 years I've been here so far.
Don't. Put. Your. Kids. On. The. Internet. I'd say "don't put unwitting strangers on the internet" too, but it's less targeted unless you're stalking a stranger, and I suspect too many HNers are Instagram users for that to be popular.
Also this is your too-often reminder that child beauty pageants are still popular in many places. Anyone taking attendance at those? Seriously, the status quo and what people are accustomed to biases people's norms in extreme ways and we just never seem to put that in context.
My point being, we have fucking pageants for children to get dolled up and pranced about for adults to watch, and here we are, off to the next horror-porn-horror travesty we all know is likely going to continue slowly getting more and more wack, as the norms shift.
I hate how 99% of the planet has no ability to consider long-term reprocussions of decisions, or worse, are incentivized to self-deluded about them. "Let's appeal to things that work in marketing and put our teenage daughter on the internet". Sounds like a god damn comedy sketch.
