  tbf that wouldn’t realllly impact me that much, it’s just reddit and youtube that I use, and the social media ‘ban’ doesn’t block you from accessing reddit or youtube, it’s not like you get a big “BLOCKED! UR UNDER 16!” page come up, you just can’t sign up for an account, so reddit and youtube still work I’d just not be able to see adult content on those sites

    Reddit has support subreddits for people struggling with mental illness or minority struggles. These are issues kids face, and the government is denying their access, while giving big tech companies excuses to spy on adults.

      can you access those subreddits without an account?

        If by “access” you mean “talk to fellow survivors” and “ask for advice or support”, no.
