UK proposes overnight social media curfew for older teens
The UK government has proposed a voluntary social media curfew for 16 and 17-year-olds, suggesting it will improve their lives. The curfew would encourage teens to avoid social media between midnight and 6 am, though they can opt out. While the government frames it as beneficial, some campaigners and teenagers view it as a missed opportunity or question its effectiveness.
