Not a complete fix, but a service like snapchat specifically could use AI to block seemingly-nude photos for underage users. Perhaps it could offer parental oversight features too (though this would be hard to implement w/out teens flocking to fake accounts).
The drawback with this approach is that if it becomes mandatory (due to public pressure, legal risk, or legislative risk) it will work work to exclude startups from entering the market.
