Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced plans to ban social media for all Australians under the age of 16. Social media companies would be responsible for imposing restriction technologies to ban new early-teen users.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Friday his government would introduce this month the legislation to ban social media for children under 16 years.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese stated on Thursday that the bill will be submitted to parliament later this year. If passed, the ban will come into effect within 12 months. - Social media is a threat to the physical and mental health of children,
