Critics agree with your point about making social media companies responsible for safety instead of this ban. The trouble with this is that they tend to be located abroard and put profits before anything else & Ofcom would face the same issues when trying to enforce our laws onto them as they have found when trying to enforce over 18 legislation for porn sites thus far, if they don't comply.

You don’t get it, Richard. Kids nowadays are familiar with VPNs and know how to circumvent the system.
What you have been advocating all this time will penalise adults, not kids.
A better solution than this is required.
Incidentally, on your point about internet security, my eldest daughter used to monitor her children’s use of the internet, and if they were sneakily trying to use it outside of the approved times, she would switch off the broadband.
It’s not rocket science.
