I think there's two separate conversations to be had. One concerns state overreach and the other the damage caused by social media, but they should be separated. There's zero doubt that social media and wider content can be poisonous and addictive. Children should be sheltered from it and most rational parents would come to the same conclusion. It's not the state's role to parent my child, it's mine. The issue with legislation like this is that it's inevitably an easy win Trojan horse to further control and coercion of internet use for the rest of society.
