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.
You are correct. We are changing the law for a minority of children who are vulnerable and should have better parental oversight at the expense of the majority, who know and understand right from wrong.

The correct solution is to ensure the social media companies employ safeguards. It can’t be that difficult.

YouTube is classed as social media because it has user generated comments and there have been cases of inappropriate comments, bullying, harrassment.
Richard, did you go to a State school? Remember the playground?

What’s the difference?
