If you are worried about the KGB, then your kids are pushing middle age. The problem is not the defunct agency, the random thugs or the illiterate terrorists. The true scary is the systemic syphoning of every detail about you by giant corporations which is then sold off, legally, in the open market. If you don’t want children exposed to Internet, don’t get them a smart phone or a computer. Sadly, not knowing how to navigate apps or websites would likely hinder their ability to function in today’s and probably tomorrow’s society.
You can care about both issues fyi. Frankly pretending those things aren’t a serious threat makes me wonder about who you are. You can’t even discuss those other problems online as things are, without such bad faith actors injecting themselves into the conversation and muddying the waters.
How in the world is the KGB, an institution disbanded before HTML was created, a problem for anyone on the Internet? MS13 and ISIS are fringe examples used as boogiemen to obfuscate and distract. Anyway, the point of the laughter was the use of KGB. Is the Stasi tapping iPhones?

Care to use words to express why you think having a problem with that is laughable?

I’m calling it now, ISIS and MS13 aren’t chatting with your kids. Prove me wrong.
