there should also be an upper limit 😆
Seriously, I grew up with my mother telling me “don’t believe everything you see on the internet” and she is now addicted to Facebook and believes every single thing she sees as fact as long as it aligns with her believe (republican and Christian - but you already knew that).
(republican and Christian - but you already knew that)
Of course we knew that. Only republicans and Christians are susceptible to propaganda.

Yup, absolutely! Something like 15 - 32 should be fitting.
I wholly support the idea of kicking everyone older than 15 off social media.

Yeah… because the age limit of 13 is being enforced really well!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen wants the European Union to impose an age limit of 15 years old to use social media, in an effort to better shield young smartphone users from harmful content and screen addiction.
"Today you can create a profile in most places if you are just 13 years old.
And we have seen that the risk for children on social media is too great," Frederiksen wrote in Danish paper Politiken on Sunday and co-authored with EU lawmaker Christel Schaldemose.
The new content-moderation rulebook, the Digital Services Act (DSA), has proven to be “not sufficient” to stand up against platforms, the two authors wrote.
They laid out proposals to “tighten the legislation,” including a ban on addictive designs and advertising to minors and a mandatory notification telling users how much time they spend on online platforms.
The idea of raising the age limit echoes French President Emmanuel Macron’s call last month to have a “digital majority” set at 15 at the EU level.
The original article contains 198 words, the summary contains 166 words. Saved 16%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
It would be wise to ban Danish universities from using Facebook. Students who do not use Facebook by choice are excluded from receiving some university announcements and information. It’s quite despicable that universities pressure students onto FB.
BTW, I could not read the article because it’s also exclusive… jailed in Cloudflare. The tl;dr bot was useful.
