Also.. i hate that the media keeps not noting that the things that hurt children also hurt adults.

Infinite scroll, sounds, alerts, alforithmic manipulation is all happening to adults as well. We expect adults to self regulate, but they dont. Its destroying society. But we only seem to care about the children?

There are cases of mass human pysocologial tests being eun in real time by meta. They dont deserve a fine. They deserve prison time.
