Except they're wasting tax payer money, which is shitty.
I hope at least it helps reduce pressure on kids that they need social media from their peers, it can be a pretty bad place to be (regardless of age really).
Thats about all the good from it, my fear is everything else that comes after. Mainly that they'll force devices to be linked to a person, which means you'll need a way to have approved devices that can access sites etc, which means you can only use a browser that has device attestation, which means no more free and open ecosystems of applications or operating systems (LineageOS, GrapheneOS, etc)...
Fuck all this.
Not sure about this, but some apps do cause additional battery drain if something fails to work. For example, an app is pinging a hostname to determine if its online, if it succeeds it waits 5 minutes before doing it again, if it fails, it tries again in 30 seconds. A pretty rough example, but this is just to say that its entirely possible.
