Then you wouldn't buy it. Netnanny exists now, do you use it? No?
Would you use it? No. Then nothing would change.

P.S. Netnanny is an actual product parents can buy to put a filter on
their children's access to the internet. I have no interest, it's just
become a term for that kind of thing.

I propose that the RIGHT THING TO DO would be to seek out, promote (to
both customers and the public), and support various curation services
like netnanny.

Promoting the idea that third-party curation is a service one can
obtain into the public discussion can only be good.
