this is good from Jan - makes the point that it lets the social media companies off the hook and penalises the kids rather than the platforms

"Social media is an essential part of young peoples’ lives, where they communicate, learn, entertain themselves, meet friends, and access information. A ban would traumatise and curtail growth as individuals and as members of wider society." www.jandehn.com/post/a-socia...
The British government wants to ban kids from social media. Bad idea. Do we really want to criminalise +60% of kids, while ignoring the real criminals, who prey on kids?
