The specific delta between this position and the current mainstream approaches of both major parties.
The 2024 Democratic platform proposed bipartisan children's privacy legislation, limits on data collection, and a ban on targeted advertising to children. Its emphasis is platform accountability but it does not settle how age should be proved without increasing surveillance. The 2024 Republican platform emphasized parental rights and protecting children from inappropriate sexual content while defending lawful speech online; Republican-led states have also enacted age- verification laws. The national platform does not supply a privacy architecture or narrow content scope.
The Innovation Party joins the strongest duties while rejecting each coalition's blind spot. It supports enforceable child protection and age boundaries for narrowly defined commercial adult content. It also forbids universal identity, content-linked records, vague ideological scope, and single-vendor gates. The method must prove both child-safety effectiveness and privacy restraint.
Turn frustration into useful pressure.
