Series: .Wrong Battle. - Don't restrict the child. Restrict the algorithm.
3D conceptual illustration | 2026
Governments are banning children from social media. Parents are putting *helmets* on their kids. Societies are drawing lines. But the algorithm is still running.
This series of three illustrations responds to the growing global movement to restrict children's access to digital platforms — and questions whether we're solving the right problem.
Limiting access is a temporary measure. It doesn't fix what's broken. It doesn't prepare children for the world they'll inevitably enter. And it ignores the fact that adults — parents, legislators, society — are already caught in the same system they're trying to protect children from.

The real fight isn't with children's freedom. It's with the corporations and algorithms designed to exploit attention regardless of age.
Wrong Battle is a call to redirect the conversation: from restriction to accountability, from blocking to fixing, from protecting children to challenging the product.
