“All is not yet lost in a country where the children rise up as one to evade mandatory age-check barriers to social media. Reclaim the Net reports the finding that, as judged by looking at 408 Australian teens, some 85 percent ‘of Australians aged 12 to 15 were still merrily logging on three months after the ban supposedly cut them off from the world.’ Maybe not merrily. Perhaps only sturdily or insouciantly. Anyway, rightly. Good job, guys. The ban is failing because kids know how to draw a mustache on their faces or borrow somebody else’s login.” (07/17/26)
