You are assuming that they aren’t oiver every single click unless something bad comes up but every click is a sakana, the overall lifestyle of using a computer that way is a sakana for something bad to eventually happen. It is a ticking time bomb and therefore you are oiver by putting yourself at its eventual mercy.

Yes, that is what I am assuming. Defining every click as an issur whether or not something bad comes up is exactly what I meant about alienating the klal. The ideal is to achieve safe issur free internet use, and the message needs to be tempered. How about if we make the message say that UNfiltered clicks are sakana chamura, and that once the necessary precautions are taken it is not assur to use the net normally.

I don’t like your comparison to yichud, because yichud itself is an issur derabbonon. Not so using the internet after taking precautions. At least, that is the mesage we need to send out, because making the internet assur has proven to be a severe problem.

To your second point, I have no disagreement. The delay is worthwhile because it is necessary. Slowing down to merge into traffic is not something we complain about either. Just don’t couch the message the way rabbaim did.
