Factually incorrect, because there is no "new Dutch government" yet. At the moment those plans are just an agreement between three parties who are hoping to form a minority government.
They first need to convince enough other parties to get a majority on the vote to allow them to actually govern, and then they also need to go scavenge for enough votes for every single piece of their plan - which will inevitable result in a quid-pro-quo with the other parties.
There are a bunch of festering problems the Dutch politicians have been avoiding for years now which really have to be solved by the next government. No matter the solution, it is going to be deeply unpopular. This minority coalition is going to have very little political capital left to spend on its own plans, so I highly doubt they'd waste it on something like a social media ban.
You've got to remember: their program is nothing more than a moonshot. There is no way they are ever going to realize all of it, and none of them care enough about social media to make it a hill they are willing to die on.
