Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced plans to ban children under 16 from using social media platforms.

The proposed law would make social media companies responsible for enforcing the ban.

There would be no exemptions for children with parental consent or existing accounts.

This crackdown comes as anxieties mount over social media’s impact on kids’ mental well-being.
