The momentum is building for a social media ban for minors in one of the largest economies in the world.

Ignoring the desire for state control a moment.
If they actually cared, they would spend the money on education and social services instead.
The internet is already age-gated, children cannot buy an internet connection.
It is adults who let them access it, unsupervised. Better parental controls and education/advice on how to use them is required for current and future parents.
It is impossible for me to believe this has anything to do with protecting minors. None of these measures ever do.
Bingo. Why do they need an Internet connected device at all? Give them a dumb phone, and if they use a computer put it in a public area when it is online. Problem solved.
they just find another way to make some money covering by children care
