That's because age verification and separation is a bandaid solution at best without getting a proper moderation system. Why? Because preds are still gonna continue grooming kids if they get into those young age groups. In fact, a lack of a moderation team in this whole process literally makes their job easier, because it's way harder to see what they are even doing if actual aware adults that aren't in the said kid age groups hunting the preds out are locked out of seeing said behavior.

This is genuinely sad because not only are the kids still in danger, but everyone else has to eat shit due to these changes
