Ah yes, the follow up of forcing everyone into revealing their identity in order to access the internet.
How about we instead follow up with the boy's parents and make a national spectacle of them such that other parents get the hint that they need to do some goddamn parenting. This shit always comes back to parents failing their children and that needs to be addressed at a societal level.
Multiple ways the parents failed the kid really. 1. Unrestricted phone and internet access at 12 years old
Why does a 12 year old know about being gay/having sex? Nobody downloads Grindr just to meet people. I have a suspicion that perhaps a teacher or other family member turned the kid to use it.
Who lets their 12 year old go missing for extended periods of time? Even if I trusted the kid and my neighborhood, there’s far too many creeps out there for me not to supervise or keep tabs on my kid
12 year olds have access to the internet and a lot of adults don't know that you can restrict/monitor their kids phone. The parents may have had the best intentions.
you underestimate how little knowledge most have. I see it all the time with classmates from my kids. Imagine 6-7 year-olds that are posting on ticktock because their parents think not giving them access will somehow hold them back. They seem horribly unaware on how bad unrestricted internet access can be, on top of that most don't even know you can use parent control on your kids phone.

Everything doesn’t add up here

No respectable parent gives their 12 year old unrestricted access to the internet
