Platforms say kids are protected.
Research says otherwise.

In a new Superbloom piece, @veszna argues that harm doesn’t come only from what children see online — but from how platforms are designed around them: defaults, friction, dark patterns, and “safety” features that exist on paper but fail in practice.

The real question isn’t whether platforms have safety features, but whether those work for children.

Platforms say kids are protected.
Research says otherwise.

In our latest piece, @veszna argues that children are harmed not only by what they see online but also by how platforms are designed around them.

UX isn’t cosmetic. Interface design is where harm travels — or stops.
