  7. A new hotline allows parents to report “suspiciously quiet toddlers.”
  8. The government has admitted it doesn’t understand Minecraft but is “monitoring it just in case.”
  9. Kids have learned to communicate in elaborate eye rolls to avoid detection.
  10. Surveillance companies insist their data collection is ethical and definitely won’t be sold to cereal brands.
  11. “Big Brother” is now your literal big brother, who gets paid to snitch on you.
  12. The first child to have their texts reviewed was just grounded for responding “K” too many times.
  13. By age six, children have a permanent record longer than most politicians’ resumes.
  14. The bill’s sponsor insisted, “We just want to make sure kids don’t grow up like us.”
  15. All footage is stored on a government cloud labeled “Totally Not Creepy.”
