What's your point? Are you banning the entire Internet?
All this stuff is still accessible once the bell rings and before they get to school, just like it was when I was a kid. Kids were still going on YouTube/MySpace/ Facebook and more to share things. This argument doesn't make sense.
You're attributing the issue of algorithms to the medium itself.
Facebook and YouTube weren't as good at recommending things back then. It's not the internet as a whole that's the problem, it's what social media has become. Addiction skinner boxes. It's not ok for kids to grow up using that.
