Wasn't there something about the effectiveness of the Australian law to restrict minors on social media? Ah...
Four in five under-16s in Australia using social media despite ban, study shows
It’s like any controlled substance ban — unless there’s a really invasive crack-down it just shifts the problem to a less safe black market.
Making things easy and safe to access with controls that are adjustable is always more effective than an outright ban that shifts the access fully into unregulated territory.
