I just noticed that it includes "YouTube", since when has YT been "Social Media" ?
Its utterly ridiculous, my grandaughter loves all the stuff like Bluey, Peppa Pig etc that she can watch on YouTube. Its full of proper kids stuff.
They mean children spending hours scrolling through social media because they are addicted to it.

YouTube is classed as social media because it has user generated comments and there have been cases of inappropriate comments, bullying, harrassment etc.

Critics have said that this initiative will lead to children turning to VPN's and/or unregulated sites.

Who knows, perhaps this move will attract thousands of children to cableforum grin ��
