Spain, France and the UK are considering following Australia in banning under-16s from using "social media". To put it differently, it means all social media users are required to prove their identity and age.

How do they define "social media"? All discussion I have seen so far has been really vague, and basically assumed that American tech giants and social media are the same thing.

Depending on their definition, this onerous requirement could destroy the Fediverse.

How has this affected Australian users and Fedi instances so far?

@SecondUniverse We seem 100% unaffected in my household so far. Kids and adults alike just get around it trivially. So far.
