Following the ban on social media implemented in Australia for children under 16, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese declared it to be one of the biggest social and cultural changes his country has faced. Addressing advocates, families, children, and officials at an outdoor event held at his official Sydney residence, Albanese emphasized the significance of the measure. Australia introduced the world’s first social media ban on Wednesday, with platforms facing fines of up to 32.9 million dollars if they fail to reasonably remove accounts. Meta, owner of Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, was the first tech giant to react, beginning to exclude suspected underage users last week.
