Wait until they all figure out that reddit allows 13 year olds on the site alongside its huge onlyfans marketing pipeline.

I didn’t know it is illegal to use social media as a underage in the US.

Not from the US, but I believe it’s to do with child protection laws, Google says it’s COPPA. Generally a service has to put in extra protections, such as prevent direct messaging, not tracking kids, not personal info. Basically all the bad shit that social media does, they can’t do to kids and most importantly have to actively monitor and restrict. That why most apps and stuff ask for date of birth or if you are over 13 or whatever

Honestly, I know of dozens of accounts parents set up for kids so they can share content with family without associating it with their main account. I don’t know of any actual under aged kids using Facebook. And teens wouldn’t be caught dead using it.
