Good or Bad: Kids Under 16 Needs Parent Approval To Access Social Media

[Loquacious]

I’m with it!

To verify you need to upload documents

You still don't have to.

"The Internet" is much more than social media. To use the internet you do not have to upload anything, just keep paying for your ISP or phone. To access social media sites while 16 or younger, you must have parental authorization.

Personally, after seeing how social media has fucked with kids heads the last 10 years or so, yeah, I can agree with this.

How would this "permission" work exactly? Because if it's just getting verification via e-mail, that's not stopping nothing...

Saying the internet is what it'll come down to later on. It's a steppingstone law

For the rest of your post... parental controls

There’s a downside to this somewhere.

wish Congress would go ahead and pass the law that you have to be 16 to have any account on all social media platforms
