They are really underestimating the harm of being on these platforms causes.

These platforms are the digital equivalent of heroin if heroin always came with either nazi or bolshevik propaganda.

They are entirely focused on the axe they rightfully have to grind the whole age verification debacle they are not seeing the bigger picture.

The major social media companies are undermining the foundations of our societies for ad revenue and giggles.

Keeping teens out is a huge step in the right direction.

I find the idea that someone would care about their privacy and choose to be on social media really hard to fathom. These things are personal data vacuums that infer everything there is to know about you, if you don't just give it to them.
