Australia proposes first bill to limit social media algorithms

Australia has announced a new bill aimed at giving social media users the option to control the content they’re exposed to, especially by allowing them to disable algorithms that automatically provide recommended content. The law requires platforms to send notifications to users over the age of 16, enabling them to choose their preferred feed, whether it’s recommended content or posts from friends and creators they follow. It also mandates the protection of users under the age of 18 from harmful content, including material promoting eating disorders, violence, bullying, and others. The law seeks to enhance individual control and reduce the negative influence of algorithms on young people.
