  It’s not a restriction, it’s user control. You can have them always on (and I suspect that will stay as the default), turn them off, or anything in between.

  You just got more tools to control the interface, what’s wrong about that?

    lol there is no 0 option

    this isn’t about user control this is getting ahead of CYA because regulation is likely coming given multiple countries are serious about limiting ages that can access social media

      You mean, no such option in an app? Because at least the article and the post clearly state you can opt for 0.
