I'm surprised that you need evidence given your involvement with catching paedophiles/hebephiles who operate primarily from online contact to the child's smartphone.

It's correct to say that most on here appear to be against more controls over the use of smartphones by children, but this is not my experience in the wider world or that of the regulator.

Evidence has been provided from allsorts of adults & children. I'm not aware of any Government involvement apart from the introduction of the Online Safety Act, the establishment of Ofcom as the regulator and statements from individual or groups of MP's.
All of these things predate smartphones, and the internet. Kids are bad, maybe we should do away with them?
