   Australia's under-16 ban on social media isn't just absurd. It's dangerous in almost every way.

   It denies a parental role in child-raising.

   It's a gift to the media barons, especially the Murdochs, who control legacy media and will profit hugely.

   And it is huge step toward government control of speech of all kinds, because age requirements require age verification.

   Age verification blows away all privacy. it amounts to a license to read and speak. They blow

   And licenses can be taken away.
