I think there’s blame enough to fall on both neglectful parents and an irresponsible behemoth of a company that absolutely can afford to invest in preventing this shit, but chooses not to because profits, of which there can never be enough, no matter how many children must be fed into the wood chipper.
I’m a bit tired of people completely ignoring the company’s responsibilities in the profit making agreement with societies. We can absolutely make them do better, even if they squeal and whine about losing some tiny fraction of a percentile of infinite growth, which they will, every single time. Regulation has always been this way, cause you can’t always blame the people/users for not knowing better, it won’t stop people from being harmed which at the end of the day is the issue regardless of who is 100% at fault. That’s while ignoring the hundreds of millions of dollars invested by that company specifically into making the product as addictive as imaginably possible, which I’d argue changes the dynamic quite a lot.
