That's great messaging, but what exactly are you materially proposing that's different?

If you make corporations liable for minors using their product, they're just going to require identity verification to use their product, and we're back to effectively the same proposal, right? Unless I've misunderstood you.

And that's fine. I'm pretty sure my nephew's high school friends will all quit Facebook for once and move to a decentralized platform or even install their own servers. The teenagers can go pretty far and learn advanced stuff if they want to. I bet their minecraft home is more complex.

And I already know their opinion on the age restrictions.

I am specifically not proposing any material solution.

It seems like it’s been easy for every corporate-backed actor to come up with solutions that burden everyday citizens.

Now we’re yet again burdened to solve a problem corporations created.
