I think at the very least, every American high school should have a class on how to spot misinformation, fake accounts, scams, ect. I think apps like Instagram should work differently for kids 13-18 - where it doesn’t show them external reels, political posts, ect, and is basically just a platform for teens to communicate with their friends. In order to have a 18+ account, it should have an actual enforcement mechanism - like sending in an ID Photo or Social Security Card to confirm.
Young people can tell a fake account or scams. Its middle aged and seniors who need to know how to spot stuff like that

I don't think its wise to require a ID photo or SS. Instagram could get hacked and that information is online
