How would they even enforce this ? I agree with protecting minors on the internet but is this where our tax payers money is going now ? On like buttons on internet sites ?

  • A UK regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office, has proposed a rule that would restrict people under 18 from using the "like" button on Facebook or Instagram.
  • The proposal, part of a 16-rule code, was introduced to better protect minors on social media platforms.

I like how that site calls itself the "Insider" but is several days later with the news than than all the mainstream sources.

Any reasoning for banning it for children also applies to adults.
So basically Facebook should get out of our lives, or be nuked from orbit.

100% agree. This is why I deleted it after all the leaks that came out and reality is they should have been shut down for all the data they collected on people without them knowing and all the political rubbish they caused too around the world.
