That genie has long since left the bottle and I wouldn’t bank on being able to put it back in.
Instead of incessantly banning and censoring everything that might be remotely harmful and kicking the can down the road, perhaps we should be focusing on education and tackling the problems that make social media so toxic to begin with. It’s not by accident - these platforms are for-profit businesses and they benefit from encouraging toxic behaviour in the name of engagement.
You want an actual solution to the problem instead of a fake solution that will generate other problems for those in power to take advantage of (like censoring, reducing privacy etc.)?? Wow… I’m with you
Oh look, a demographic with 40% who have admitted to being domestically abusive trying to further restrict children’s ability to find support and avoid isolation.
I’m totally up for this. Yes, some kids will find out how to circumvent it and yes, some parents won’t abide by it but even if a law isn’t completely enforceable it totally changes people’s attitudes on a population level. Look at the ban on smoking in indoor public spaces for example.
