The move was due to fears that messaging functions on the platforms allowed strangers to groom children, according to the newspaper. It suggested similar reselling platforms, Depop and Facebook Marketplace, would also be included in the list of banned sites.

I don't even know what to say to this LOL.

Well maybe we are looking at it backwards. Maybe they are looking for the kids to have a shitty environment where they can't actually learn life lessons until they are thrust suddenly into it between 16-18 and are easily moldable/groomable, then unable to perform the basic functions and called names.

They can call it the we hate our kids and want them to grow up to hate us bill.
