I felt like COPPA has failed to protect anyone, kids from games meant for them still get kidnapped and killed, it doesn't make these other sites that much different than sites that block kids. Heck, teens can just be as naive as them and get the same consequences, and there's nothing that prevents them from signing up for anything. If COPPA really wanted to protect kids, they should just block them from every single website where you can make an account there is until they're the age when COPPA doesn't care about them anymore. The world today is messed up, hence why children still get harmed. It's not the fault of the COPPA law anymore. In fact, it still seems to stay effective. Online sex offenders and online pedophiles are still being hunted down or thrown to prison. We actually should be thankful that it exists. If it were not for COPPA, more children will join sites that are not appropriate for their ages. Not to mention, there are several wikis in the entire Wikia network that are 18+ rated or covers sensitive or deep mature topics. Yes, these days children can lie about their ages but it is still their fault for joining a site in where COPPSis strictly implemented. If they get blocked from a site for being underaged, then it's their fault.
