Original Note:
According to the Advertising Standards Authority in 2013, 83% of the 11 to 15 year olds monitored registered on a social media site with a false age, with over 40% of them stating they are above 18. Other sources state similarly about minors lying about their age. https://amp.theguardian.com/media/2013/jul/26/children-lie-age-facebook-asa https://www.deseret.com/2013/6/6/2052074/digital-deception-kids-lie-hide-online-behavior-study-says https://www.kaspersky.com/about/press-releases/2016_children-on-social-media-lie-about-their-age-and-share-too-much-sensitive-data https://www.malaymail.com/amp/news/life/2022/10/12/a-third-of-minors-on-social-networks-lie-about-their-age-study-finds/33104
