A lot of Western governments have recently realised the severity of the "male loneliness epidemic". Maybe those in power have their own sons or grandsons, and have currently and are absolutely concerned with the content they are finding. However of course the main reason is from companies realising they can not have a productive workforce if like 10-20% of young dudes in every western population refuse to get into work, have no social lives, and are on this forum.
The government previously had quite a hands off approach in the 90s, and 2000s when there was a huge wave of emos, social rejects. However a large percentage of them funelled into IT, and more "nerdy" type of work and employment, the "emos" ended up just having a phase, and it all kinda blew over. At most you would see government notices on Green Day's or any emo punk music warning to not shoot up schools.
Then again all of this was a tiny minority of men in the 90s and 2000s. It isn't comparible to today where nearly every young male is addicted to pornography, huge rates of NEET, mental issues, refusing to get into employment, and a bunch of doomscrollers on tiktok.
Recent Legislature Against The Male Loneliness Epidemic
Age restriction of 18 on Porn in most western nations and couple states within the USA. - As you may know the UK announced legislature to put age restriction on porn, you need an ID to view it.
In the USA there are words of announcing an autism registry, of young pupils who have autism. Although they have denied their intentions in doing this, the fact that this is up in the air to be discussed shows the war on male lonelienss is definitley beginnining or will be in full swing.
Australian Legislature is now enforcing in the coming days to ban social media under 16, they previously tried to make it higher to 18.

YouTube internationally will also be asking for you to show ID based on the content you watch. If you consume content that seems to be under 18, you will either have to say whether your under 18, or whether you are over 18, and if you are you need to show ID.
Discord has also been asking for Face scans to determine if a user is 18.
Twitter (X) has also put in their own restrictions on age.
4Chan has also been shut down and any remakes have been banned by ISP providers within the United Kingdom.
End Goal Of Western Governments
They have realised a lot of Gen Z can not be saved. Especially if they are over 18. They are doing everything however to make sure the next generation(s) is not going to have porn addictions, are not using social media past 22:00 (10 oclock) , want to block youth from being desensitized seeing gore. They want to make sure that any interaction is done more in real life, hence the ban on social media, and to giving themselves self induced social anxiety.
If your Gen Z do not get excited. There isn't going to be a plan like in Japan to state mandately, match couples together or something. These plans are for Gen Alpha to socialize more in the real world and have normal childhoods. A lot of you now are turning 18 soon are already past that age. Legally to the government you dont mean shit, and society can handle 20% of Gen Z NEETing around. Thats only 14 million people out of a population of 350 million in the USA.
Some people made the argument that with these ID function, people won't want to associate their face with outrageous shit they say online, or to watch porn because of how humiliating it will be.
Biden administration set out 6 pillars to combat the loneliness epidemic and get society back to normal.

You can search up the US advisories PDF in full but I will break it down in full. The policies in the PDF discuss legislation requiring age requirements on social media platforms to completely disway people from using social media at all and making it unusable so people are forced to real social interactions in real life.
The trump admin is continuing this path and this is absolutely bipartisan.
What to expect
Expect in the coming years legislation that is bipartisan, costing billions of dollars to slowly destruct social media until it is unusable. Part of the AI spambots, and AI content is to make platforms so unusable, so full of bots that users just do not want to use it at all. If people are unaware whoever they are commenting to are a real person, or if the content they even consume lots of people will stop using the content.
Expect something similiar to the war on drugs, Banning of sites like these, raiding houses of people saying edgy shit online. I would be really careful what you guys say in the coming years on the internet. Both republicans or democrats will have you put their autist list.

How will Australia’s under-16s social media ban be enforced, and which platforms will be exempt?
No prescribed avenue for social media companies to check users’ ages, but options include facial estimation technology and matching photos with ID
