This has nothing to do with legacy media, that's not a threat for this age group.

This has everything to do with the mental damage inflicted by social media on developing minds, many of which end in suicide.

That but also privacy too. The damage is real, yes, but the negative effect on privacy will also be. (And the Aus gov is extremely far from any kind of principled actor in this to trust them with this experiment. Though I'm very curious of the results now that the experiment is underway anyway...)

Also, of course, quite ironic how everyone is worried about kids' mental health, while brain rot of the voting age population of "the West" had been ongoing for decades. And now the eggs of neopopulism have hatched. (One more unfortunate but quite interesting experiment.)
