Apps designed for children under 13 often ask them to accept cookies. There are concerns this could expose them to tracking. We ask the government to ban non-essential cookies in apps designed for children age 13 and under and require parental consent for all data collection.

Ban social media for under-16s to protect children

Government ban on social media to be for under 13s only

Do not ban social media for under 16s
I think the government shouldn’t ban social media for under 16s. This is because for many young people social media is how they communicate with their friends. Some people view social media as a lifeline. A community, a supportive network. This is why I think the government shouldn’t ban it.
