Yep, I also think that a sizable portion, even most 12 year olds are more tech savvy than their guardians. It makes no sense trying to keep under 13 year olds from using services like tiktok. The laws requiring parental consent are good willing but don’t serve their purpose like intended. We should just focus on making mass media safe for children.
