It was my job for a decade to try to keep tweens and teens safe online. Let me tell you what you already know: no law or technology can do it. There are no lengths kids won't go to to talk to friends without prying eyes. The harder you try to lock it down, the dodgier their solutions will be.
@mttaggart I'd much rather see the social media firms held to account for the problems they have created. It isn't just kids that get addicted, there are millions of adults too. Supposedly adults know better than to let a software get the better of them, but apparently not. It isn't an age thing, it is the addictive aspects of social media programming.
