Truly disgusting to allow an under-13 to talk to an unapproved friend.
Companies were never meant to have incentives to provide products to such people and not their guardians. There is a reason we make it illegal for that underclass to own or earn capital, and the ability for companies to circumvent this and provide services anyway through indirect revenue is unpalatable. Cutting that off is necessary, as any good-thinking small-person-owner will know.
It's a slippery slope we have to cut down on now, lest small people start expecting to go outside without parental overseers or questioning their owners' authority.
