Platform for children --- I will have to disagree with you on this one, same as you are unable to know who is a kid and who's not at the time of making an online purchase, you can't know if the person creating the account on the Instagram for kids is really a kid. I agree that companies search only their economical benefit but I don't think creating a platform only for kids would be the solution, instead of that, you can as a platform restrict the amount of profiles created by linking them to a national ID (government and industry cooperation must be part of it). In this case if you want to open an account for your kids it must be linked to yours. With this you would also have a better settlement while trying to combat cybercrimes. In my personal belief children should not have access to social media until the age that they are aware of the risks of surfing it and knowing the consequences of what they can share.

With all these points I'm not taking responsibility off of social media platforms. They can surely improve their ways of keeping the user's content safe and secure. But it also requires that users have more awareness and responsibility on the content we search for.
