Description

Australia introduces world-first social media ban for children under 16, aiming to protect childhoods and provide parents with peace of mind. The ban, led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, faces challenges as children find ways around age verification and parents may help bypass restrictions. Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube face significant fines for non-compliance. A public report on the effectiveness of age restrictions is expected before Christmas.
