They warn that blanket bans risk creating a false sense of safety and call instead for risk-based minimum ages and design duties that reflect the different levels of risk on different platforms. When the family of Molly Russell, whose tragic death galvanised this entire debate, warns against blanket bans and calls for targeted regulation, we must listen. Those are the organisations that pick up the pieces every day when things go wrong online. They are clear that a simple ban may feel satisfying, but it is the wrong tool and risks a dangerous false sense of safety.
