Education for vendors and children --- Indeed a big challenge. However, as stated by Vlada in his video, child protection in the cyberspace has been one of the areas in which international cooperation and effective technical monitoring has been more successful. But more than controls, the key point will continue to be education of children -by parents especially- on the risks of internet and developing children´s own judgment and moral compass. There will be never enough controls, if each individual child has not the capacity to distinguish what is right or harmful for him or others. Preventing kids from using computers cannot be neither an option, but exerting more controls on the developers and vendors of “legal” violent videogames and webpages, could also be helpful.
