Stop anyone from being able to set up social media without verifying their age and identity.
Allow people the right to use a different name / alias but ensure there is an I'd verification behind each account.

Additional Information

It will minimise online bullying, paedophiles having free reign over social platforms to groom children and teens.
Protect kids, stop underage social use and toxicity in year groups, which is a leading contribution to mental health issues in children and young adults.
Hold trolls accountable for their actions, helping the police to identify abusers and bullies.
