Then why are these things okay for adults?
There is nothing normal about mass consumption of troll farms and bots. The user facing internet is broken and unhealthy, and it’s absolutely mad we pretend like it isn’t. Banning it from children is not even a band-aid.
…I’m going to set porn aside.

I have no data to confirm this but I’d wager it’s disproportionately kids using that kind of stuff. I think the vast majority of adults who want to look at some titties or whatever are perfectly happy cranking it to one of the millions of freely available pictures and videos out there.
Hell, last month I had to factory reset some kid’s phone because they downloaded some “undressing app” that obviously turned out to be malware. I’ve helped adults and seniors with their tech before and they do dumb shit too but I’ve never seen one do that

You know, I’d argue it’s hard to stop kids from doing that privately. If they want to use some local model to undress Jessica from history class, for only their eyeballs… well, that genie is out of the bottle unless we take everyone’s computers away.
Now, where it crosses another line is spreading those nudes.
Or even worse, selling them.
No one should be allowed to make money off that. Not the financial processors that facilitate it if they “buy” an undressing service, not the social media platforms that advertise it to them; they should all be crushed to dust with liability. And kids should get in deep trouble if they pass it around, just like they would if they ripped Jessica’s clothes off in broad daylight.
