Kids outsmarting social media bans may be fine

Original: Kids are outsmarting social media bans. That's not a problem we need to solve

An MIT Technology Review essay argues that children circumventing social media bans, such as Australia's age restrictions, should not automatically be treated as a crisis to be fixed. The piece suggests kids evading restrictions shows resourcefulness, and questions whether enforcement is worth the cost, drawing debate among parents and policy watchers online.

Why now: Fresh commentary is sparking debate over whether youth evasion of social media age bans is a problem or a sign of healthy independence.
