Summary
A YouGov poll revealed that 77% of Germans support banning social media for those under 16, similar to a new Australian law.
The survey found that 82% believe social media harms young people, citing harmful content and addiction.
In Australia, the law fines platforms up to AUD 49.5 million (€30.5M) for allowing under-16s to create accounts, with enforcement trials set before implementation next year. Critics
Begin with the “cherry-picking”:

Fact-checking is protected-speech, not immediately-auto-deleted-because-it-harms-profitable-disinformation.
Ideological-prejudice gets cut out.
The major racisms: sex/gender racism, skin racism, class racism, & national racism, get stomped.

You put those in-place, & MASSIVE improvement is inescapable.

Rabies is their means-of-gaining-possession-of-the-world, & NOTHING can be tolerated to interfere with their rabies/means.
No matter how many humans die, in which circumstances their platforms helped enforce.
For-profit-corporations are psychopaths, by default…
So long as we continue maintaining-otherwise, they continue winning…
until it’s too late.
( & we don’t get told when it is too late, either: that’s movie-fantasy plot-point, not reality )
