Australia is cracking down on social media for kids under 16!
This is big news, folks. The land down under has just given the green light to a law that will put the kibosh on youngins using social media. And hey, it’s not just any law – it’s one that’s got support from both the right and the left, showing that this issue is hitting home for everyone.
What’s the deal?
Well, starting in November 2025, social media platforms will have to prove that they’re keeping the under-16 crowd out. If they don’t, they could be looking at some hefty fines. And let me tell you, the tech bigwigs like Google and Meta tried to push back, but Australia’s lawmakers weren’t having it. They even made sure that users wouldn’t have to give up their personal info just to prove their age.
So what’s next?
It’s gonna be interesting to see how this all plays out. Will other countries follow suit? Will social media platforms be able to adjust in time? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure – the tech world is in for a shake-up.
