A child is not a mistake in filling a form
The UK has announced a ban on social media for children under the age of sixteen. Starting in the spring of 2027, children and teenagers will lose access to at least ten platforms, including TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube. It is a major, overdue, and understandable decision. For years, governments pretended that it was enough to tell parents to be more attentive, as if an ordinary family could compete with companies that employ engineers to figure out how much longer a finger can keep swiping the screen.
