The proposed social media ban, the EU KIDS Act, is perhaps the most chaotic law I have ever read! New paper: Are EU Kidding Me? Notes from a Poorly Drafted Social Media Ban. files.michae.lv/papers/veale_areEUkiddingme.pdf In the spirit of the proposal I have stayed offline and read no takes.

As a preview - loot boxes banned everywhere EXCEPT games - age estimation techs have impossible tech requirements - U-15s have 1 hour daily limit on strava & spotify - accidental age rating obligation for all kindle ebooks - 14 yos on work experience can only use slack through a parent's account

Oh dear
