Australia social media ban: Under-16s social media accounts to be taken down
Update: 2025-12-04
Description
Social media accounts have begun going offline for thousands of young Australians as the country begins rolling out a landmark ban. The law requires platforms to block under-16s from having accounts on apps like TikTok and Instagram. The ban is being challenged in the High Court, but accounts are already disappearing ahead of a December 10th deadline. Al Jazeera’s Danielle Robertson reports from Sydney.
