Obviously sympathetic to the mothers position here. However, based on my limited understanding of how this stuff works, if content is being viewed on ‘the dark web’ it likely wouldn’t be obvious to internet providers, nor would a kid who’s savvy enough to be on the ‘the dark web’ in the first place be really prevented from finding a work around to any potential block in place.

I’m a parent. This stuff scares the crap out of me, but I’m not sure we can actually legislate this stuff out of existence.

    That’s such an obscure vulnerability that I highly doubt any significant amount of kids would know about it, if any.

      Err, as soon as a way to bypass parental settings is found it will be shared far and wide with those who would be impacted by it.
