Australia’s teen social media ban is a flop. But there’s no joy in ‘I told you so’

The addictive design of platforms, software and algorithms should be adressed, not the users age. And the tech companies should be made responsible to design more healthy platforms, etc. The problem is the design of tech, not the people using it.

Why is everyone forgetting the parents in this shit. They are the ones giving their kids access to this shit, not monitoring and moderating their access to this shit, and letting screens do the job of raising their kids instead of doing it themselves.

You are correct, but that does not absolve the companies or the government of any responsibility. It should not be “anything goes” as far as intentionally addictive designs on anything with a screen for the same reason they can’t just put cocaine in Doritos. They still engineer in what they can, but with some guardrails. And even in that case the regulations here in the US leave a lot to be desired.

Saying stop ignoring parental responsibility, doesnt mean ignore everyone elses culpability.
