Zuckerberg seeks to place responsibility onto Apple and Google for underage social media use::Apple and Google, not social media companies, should be responsible for checking users’ ages to ensure they are not underage, Zuckerberg told lawmakers, suggesting it would be “trivial” for Congress to design legislation regulating app store owners.

I feel the worst outcome of this will be mandated age verification on every website. I really hope the EFF is ready to fight like hell.

I agree with you but there's simple no way they can really check age on internet, because if they make verification by government documents (id) on international websites, then they basically geoblock most of the world out, in other words it'll be another clownery by big tech and i hope too that there'll be enough outrage for big tech to back off
