The hard part is that kids don’t get a clean opt-out later. Parents are making a tiny archive of faces, routines, schools, friends, birthdays, locations… and those bits last longer than the context they were shared in.

We think about the same “ordinary data becomes identity data” problem with email too: receipts, school mail, doctor reminders, travel, recovery links. It is not dramatic until it has accumulated for years.
