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

But, but, we banned them! There's no possible way that kids could find their way out of the AOL Kids Zone!
