- afavour 2y agoIt’s not the same, no. I provided the link because it’s what I assume the OP is referring to. Limiting use to 40 minutes is not a ban but it still shows a view that extended exposure to it is harmful. To turn it on its head, if more than 40 minutes is viewed harmful for Chinese youth, why not American?

- dv_dt 2y agoIf it was a legal requirement for Chinese apps in China, and this is the path for societal heath then why not pass that law for all social apps in the US?
- throwawayq3423 2y agoBlanket content bans are the stuff of dictatorships, but restricting access to demographics that could be most harmed by it (children for example) is a good idea, and I wish the US would look into it.
