You are not accounting for how lately average tech knowledge and skills have been declining rather than increasing, and that internet access is so ubiquitous that even given the best attempts at monitoring and restricting, there is no lack of alternate ways to access whatever one wants to.

Legitimately, it was much easier to control what kids accessed when the only place they could do that was the single family computer the household had.
