I know social media is bad for adults, and worse for children. That does not justify a ban. Parents can choose to not give devices to their kids, or lock them out of specific apps. Yes, the kids can circumvent that, just like they can circumvent this law with a VPN. So it's useless.
But it's worse than useless, it's harmful to adults and to the rest of the planet, because the only way to enforce this is KYC. And the cat and mouse game that follows will make that KYC ever stricter. We've seen this movie before.
