I'm 78 is this new legislation going to mean I have to prove I'm over 16 on every social media site I visit.
Also who will be the first to create a VPN where P = persona. It will only take one person to do it and kids will spread the information faster than a wild fire.
Never underestimate a young teenager they will always find a way around something that tries to stop them doing what they want to do.
Don't get me wrong I do believe we should protect our children but so much that has been put forward is already a naive attempt to turn back the tide.

Would I have to prove I'm over 16 on Facebook, despite I've been on there nearly 18 years?
