i'd like the government to age restrict access to the internet from 16 years old
Just as age restrictions on smoking/vaping/alcohol are in place and "Totally work", thus mitigating the need for the Online child safety act Any one with internet access should be required to obtain an internet licence just like a Security guard is required to be SIA licence vetted.

We understand that you're concerned about the use of the internet, but we're not exactly sure what you want the Government or Parliament to do. For example, we're not sure whether you want a license system to be introduced for the internet, for access to be banned or limited for younger people, or whether you want a change to laws on data sharing. We have opened these petitions which you may wish to sign: Enact new law prohibiting use of the internet for children under the age of 18 https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/738795 Online age checks: do not use personal information & third party perform checks: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/733466
