A note in the margins

Marginalium

My commentary on something from elsewhere on the web.

Australia banning social media for under-16s. The implied identity checks, though a distinct privacy concern, will probably reduce anonymous posting. But that doesn’t seem to be the goal, so one wonders whether it’ll really have positive effects. Especially since, as demonstrated again and again, social media doesn’t seem to be the problem affecting the youth.
