On the one hand, I actually think this is a very good thing. Social media is especially damaging to children.
The same can be said for adults and all age groups, the damage isn’t exclusive. Also focus should be given that the law impacts teens as well since it’s under 16s - this isn’t just the kids or children that will be impacted.
As such, unless you advocate for the oppression of human rights and youth rights to adolescents - then this law would be fine for you. But the reality is, ageism is what this proceeds to be. Infantilisation is just a non negotiable occurrence where the shallow belief that those people cannot think for themselves, absorbs us whole.
The most devastating thing is, that those people are fighting this oppression and you dare to stand against them. Fascism stays fascism no matter what age you are.
Even if this was just about the children, then the state shouldn’t dabble with the internet - as parents should be the ones parenting not the state.
