Social Media Ban,Under-16S,Digital Industry Group

Despite passing, the social media ban for under-16s has faced criticism from the Digital Industry Group and various experts, including the Human Rights Commissioner, Children’s Commissioner, and mental health organizations. They raise concerns about the safety and privacy implications for young people.

But not all bills welcomed Continuing from our last post: not all of the bills have been warmly welcomed. The Digital Industry Group said “significant questions” remain about the impacts of the under-16 social media ban on young people.

Managing director Sunita Bose said it would work with the government “as its implementation questions are explored”: This law has passed despite advice from Australia’s Human Rights Commissioner, the Children’s Commissioner, the Privacy Commissioner, 100 youth experts in an open letter to the Prime Minister and a coalition of mental health organisations.
