Internetlisistä

Internetlisistä refers to a type of custodial relationship originating in Finland. The term is derived from the Finnish word for 'internet users,' highlighting the unique aspect of this arrangement. Essentially, internetlisistä creates a legal bond between an internet service provider (ISP) and a user's family.

This agreement often results from a minor's unauthorized use of the internet, leading to a parental or guardian obligation. The ISP may choose to participate in the internetlisistä arrangement to avoid censoring content and to relieve liability for the user's actions. As part of the agreement, the ISP may require parents or guardians to accept supervision responsibilities for the user's online activities.

In practice, internetlisistä holds the parents or guardians accountable for their child's internet usage. If a minor engages in prohibited online activities while under supervision, the ISP may charge the supervising adult, resulting in a higher internet service charge. In most instances, internetlisistä only applies to Finnish residents. Liabilities may range from increased internet charges to account blockage, depending on the content's severity. Ultimately, internetlisistä fosters a role that emphasizes shared responsibility among ISPs, minors, and their guardians in maintaining a safe online environment.
