I have kids, so on a surface level, the idea of limiting their access to social media etc sounds good.
The problem is — it’s a privacy and security nightmare and ends up compromising everyone rather than protecting children (who, let’s be honest, social media doesn’t want to “protect”, they just want to make money and getting lawmakers off their back so they don’t make them accountable for their platforms is the best path they have.
