i dunno ab this bc social media is vague. corporate sites that pump out politically divisive content, misinformation, harmful content, etc. should be a bigger target? when i was a teenager, using social media platforms to connect to queer spaces was essential for me, but i was on reddit and tumblr rather than instagram or tiktok. its a tough line between protecting minors and restricting their freedom on their behalf. sucks that parents cant just step up and do what's right, because the law can be unnecessarily suffocating. at the very least, seems like its the companies, not the kids, who'd be punished. curious to see how this plays out.
edit: spelling is hard
