  • Australia is at the cusp of passing legislation that will ban social media for children under 16.
  • All state and territory leaders of the country have already signed off on the plan for age restrictions.
  • Meta, owner of Facebook and Instagram, wants app stores to monitor age restrictions instead of social media platforms.
The rise of toxicity on social media and the lack of proper safety regulations have pushed Australia, a major American ally, to ban social media for children under 16 years of age. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the “world-leading” legislation will be tabled in the Australian parliament next week. All state and territory leaders have already signed off on the plan for age restrictions.
