If you have been wondering about the effectiveness of the social media ban of under 15 year olds, this study got you :)

Spoiler: 92%+ of kids age 14-15 in Australia still use it 🥳

Meanwhile IMO forced verification of users had a much better success rate 😉

Everybody knows that when you make laws banning teens from something they absolutely comply and aren't rebellious at ALL LMFAO

I'm sure Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are really broken up about a massive influx of ~~profit~~ users that shouldn't be there.
