The article explains very clearly what these issues have to do with each other in this particular case.

I don’t agree. Whether or not these girls had phones, or social media, was irrelevant in this case. And I’ve never heard anyone seriously argue that 16-year-olds shouldn’t have phones, or that 16-year-old girls are at fault when an old man secretly makes videos of them. Both these groups seem like imagined bogeymen that the article is railing against.

The article explains why that was not irrelevant.

Who is saying 16yos shouldn't have phones though?
Maybe if you have a certain frame of reference? I found it impenetrable.
