YouTube Criticized for Teen Social Media Ban Stance

Description

YouTube faces Australian government criticism for its stance on teen social media ban, with the government calling YouTubes comments outright weird. The company warns that the ban wont fully protect kids on its platform, just one week before Australias new law takes effect. YouTube confirms compliance but expresses disappointment, arguing that the laws dont truly understand how young people use the platform. The government plans to remove children from popular platforms starting next week, aiming to stop the dopamine drip targeting young people. Parents wont be penalized for helping children bypass the ban, but tech companies face significant fines for failing to block underage users.
