I'd argue a different approach: Teach critical thinking and scepticism to children. Banning things makes it a race to keep up with whatever new thing comes up; it's not a sustainable solution so much as a constant fixing of new holes without tackling why these things are so destructive.

I dont think critical thinking is enough. If you apply critical thinking to a media landscape full of lies you will still come out wrong.
