Blanket ban anyone under 14 from having an online account, IMHO.

Let's be sensible and set it at 21. It cannot be less harmful than alcohol.

Why should there be age restrictions once you're legally an adult at 18? 21 is unnecessarily puritanical (EU countries don't have that) and most teenagers are going to drink anyway, just as they're going to find a way to bypass age verifications for their social media of choice.

Maybe the law could have different ages for beer and distilled spirits. Let the kids have a beer at 16 or 18.

I have the same feeling about motorcycles. The age for riding them should be a bit later, when you've acquired some sense. Maybe 21 or even 24.

[zarzavat]

This is essentially the law in the UK. To be able to drive a motorcycle of unrestricted size you need to be 24, or have worked you way up by holding a license for a smaller size class.

The difference is that driving is a privilege not a right (riding a motorcycle especially so), as you are endangering the lives of others.

[Ekaros]

Finland does that 18 for up to 22% and 20 for above that in stores(state has monopoly for above 5.5%).

Maybe some type of tiered system could be in place. Text one limit, images next and then video one more.

18 for 99% of stuff is honestly fine with me.
