I already asked the crowd. 99% said it was to protect Trump's child mentality. Annoyed was the outlier

We deny youngsters many rights. The right to vote, the right to drink, the right to drive, and in many cases they are not held legally responsible for their actions.

We do this because their immature brains are not yet capable of handling these activities. The same applies to social media.
[EDIT]
Doesn't all the whining about bullying via social media pretty much indicate they aren't ready to handle it yet?
In reality, bullying requires physical contact or perhaps plausible threat of physical harm in the future. An adult just ignores such things, he/she considers the source and ignores the person hurling insults / names. You're gonna run into such people throughout your life, a mature person knows how to handle it.

Children do not. They are still developing their self-esteem (or whatever psychological term you want to call it).

Look up the legal difference between "assault" and "battery"

kids stick togeather.

Look up the ORIGINAL definition of bullying. It required physical contact, or credible threat of physical contact. In other words, physical harm to the target. Of course, this was before it became common to redefine words to include things they didn't originally mean.

Ever hear of the phrase "Sticks and stones can break my bones but names will never hurt me"? Seems they've forgotten to teach that as of late.

Well technically nobody had access to her emails so I think she qualifies as a cyber defense expert

Dude we're not talking about bullying, we're talking about conversion, mind control or programming if you prefer. Teenagers are in a stage of their lives that their brains are developing and easily malleable to outside influence. I still remember the first time I heard Slipknot, I fell in love with the metal genre right there and now. Then I let my hair grow down to my waist and wore a bunch of gory t-shirts of different metal bands because this is what I identified to, that's a group I wanted to belong to. I've been to hundreds if not thousands of local shows, met a lot of great people and friends, had my own band, it was my ''clan''.

What if instead of metal it was some extremist religious group such as Daesh or a skinhead group that I've stumbled on first? What if a depressive teen found an escape to his torments when some guy on FB told him Allah would welcome him with open arms and provide long-sought redemption and a purpose to live? Teens look for a purpose, and recruiters know that very well.

If we have the power to exterminate the vermin from the social media sphere we should use it fully, right now, to prevent any innocent kids being caught in some sects.

one of my fellow students at the massage school joked that she was gonna play slipknot during her treatments..I was like "yeah you'd probably have to peel your patients off the ceiling"

I hardly think so. Security involves prevention of data loss by any means, not just intrusion into the network.

How many emails of hers have magically "disappeared" ?

I put my fingers into myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy eyes!
It's the only thing, that slowly stops the ache
Slipknot - Duality

(relevant song don't you think?)

Spoiler:

IF your student is talking about modern Slipknot then you can tell her garbage music isn't allowed, the only good Slipknot is the old Slipknot before they became commercial leeches

Dude I'm not even going to respond to that given your King' sins, as he said yesterday before he retracted, Putin did give him a hand didn't he?

That is because science had shown that saying to be inaccurate

BS. Someone wanted to expand the definition to include namecalling. Sorry, I fell off the truck, but not last night. I'm not dumb enough to buy into such crap.

Careful Jel, using big adult words (science)

Well, lets see if this changes Mexico's mind about sending their problems to our doorstep.

Trump announces escalating tariffs against Mexico, starting at 5 percent, until illegal immigrants 'STOP'

While making that post, I was well aware he would deny it. Its what he does with information that contradicts his POV

[Annoyed]

And on this one, Trump is out of line.

Trump administration to ask most US visa applicants for social media information

The Trump administration will implement a new policy Friday asking most applicants for U.S. visas to provide information on their use of social media, a U.S. Department of State official tells Hill.TV

Most visa applicants, including temporary visitors, will be required to list their social media identifiers in a drop down menu along with other personal information.

Applicants will have the option to say that they do not use social media if that is the case. The official noted that if a visa applicant lies about social media use that they could face "serious immigration consequences" as a result.

Sorry, Donald. But but what people post on Facebook is none of the government's business unless it contains direct threats of terrorism/etc.
