    Fair enough. Social media is addictive and it’s the wild west for political radicalization. It should be restricted for kids whose brains are still developing. You can get devices anywhere. What you’re suggesting is like restricting lighter sales but not tobacco. Doesn’t work.

      None of what you are saying is addressing the massive privacy violation of tracking everyone’s internet habits and websites having a copy of your ID. Even if they are 100% responsible with your data, do you realize how often websites get hacked?

        Doesn’t have to be ID directly to the website. Some other validated token can exist. I don’t have the solution but there will be one whether you can imagine it or not. Data gets stolen all the time. It’s just part of living in a digital world and part of that will require protecting children from radicalization and hyper-sexualization. Don’t think about red or blue. Think about the negative effects that porn and social media have on kids and then the adults they become.
