No, it hasn't. Some types of social media no one should be on. However it's a problem of parenting, support and time. Age gating will do nothing to abate it. More than likely it will only hurt the sort of media and social media that people would like to see. Which is by design and why it is being pushed. The burden imposed is far too heavy for all but those with the most wealth and resources.
