    Maybe it's not the way. But that's not a reason for a company, who engage in their own censorship and surveillance, to shirk our laws.

    Agree it may not be the way but it's hard to take this seriously;

    "Reddit, one of the top 10 websites visited in the world, has challenged the teen social media ban on the grounds it impinges the implied freedom of political communication for under-16s."

    Ah yes, social media, the best place for under 16s (or... anyone?) to engage with politics. 😂 I get the point but c'mon. Reddit. Really?
