I am wondering which social media company will eventually get to be first or if the powers that be will simply select a sample of under 16s from each and issue fines at some point down the road. It's simply too good a cash cow not to milk to revenue raise

The companies in question are not hapless, the reason they were singled out was for the relentless scraping of pii, or at very least assigning and matching certain age groups with various advertisers. I guess it'll be another thing that will have them stunned when the government finally moves onto the next phase.
